"It is composed of many different types of cells that together create tissues and subsequently organ systems."
This topic covers the basic concepts and terminology used in anatomy and physiology, as well as the organization of the human body and its major systems.
Anatomy and Physiology Terminology: Understanding of basic anatomical and physiological terms and definitions is necessary to effectively communicate and comprehend the subject matter.
Levels of Organization: Categorization of body structures from the smallest to largest, including atoms, molecules, cells, tissues, organs, systems, and the organism level.
Cells and Tissues: Study of the structures and functions of different types of cells and tissues in the human body.
Skeletal System: The study of bones and the relationship between bones and other body structures.
Muscular System: The study of muscles, their structure, functions, and how they interact with bones and joints.
Nervous System: The study of the brain, spinal cord, and neurons, and their functions in the body.
Endocrine System: The study of the endocrine glands, hormones, and their effects on the body.
Cardiovascular System: The study of the heart, blood vessels, and blood, and how they work together to distribute nutrients and oxygen to the body.
Respiratory System: The study of the lungs and respiratory tract, and how they exchange gases with the environment to oxygenate the blood.
Digestive System: The study of the organs and processes involved in breaking down and absorbing food and nutrients.
Urinary System: The study of the kidneys and urinary tract, and their role in filtering blood, removing waste products, and regulating water and electrolyte balance.
Reproductive System: The study of the organs and processes involved in reproduction, including the male and female reproductive systems.
Integumentary System: The study of the skin, hair, and nails, and their functions in protecting the body and maintaining homeostasis.
Homeostasis: The maintenance of a stable internal environment within the body and the mechanisms that regulate it.
Medical Ethics: Moral principles and values that guide healthcare professionals in their interactions with patients, colleagues, and society.
Body Systems Interdependences: The understanding of how each system in the body depends on other systems to function correctly and maintain overall health.
Public Health Concerns: The study of health epidemics, genetic diseases, and public health policies, and how they affect population health.
Medical Terminology: Terminologies, classifications, and nomenclature used in medical sciences to effectively communicate diagnoses and treatments.
Human Anatomy and Physiology Research: Awareness of current research and advancements in the field of Anatomy and Physiology.
Embryology: The study of human development from the fertilization of the egg to birth, including the differentiation and growth of organs and tissues.
Traditional Lecture: This is the traditional classroom lecture format where the instructor delivers a lecture on the subject matter of Anatomy and Physiology.
Online Course: This is the online version of Lecture format, where students can access the course content online.
Interactive Course: This course follows a discussion-based approach where students can actively participate in the classroom. The instructor may use interactive teaching tools like polling, group activities, and discussions.
Blended Course: This course follows a combination of both online and traditional lecture formats.
Laboratory Course: This course involves hands-on practice and demonstrations to study the human body. Students will be exposed to various laboratory techniques, dissections, and other experiments to understand Anatomy and Physiology in-depth.
Integrated Course: This course may cover Anatomy and Physiology together or may integrate the study of other disciplines such as biochemistry, genetics, and pharmacology, etc.
Clinical Course: This course focuses on the clinical application of Anatomy and Physiology. Students may learn how to diagnose diseases, correlate symptoms with pathophysiology, and perform physical examinations.
Self-paced Course: This course allows students to work at their own pace and cover the material as per their convenience.
Flipped Classroom Course: In this course, students access the course content online before coming to the class, and the classroom session is dedicated to discussions and clarifications.
Problem-Based Learning Course: This course involves the study of Anatomy and Physiology through real-life problems and case studies. It aims to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills among students.
