Course overview

The aim of this course is to develop knowledge in integrative physiology. Extension of homeostasis; regulation and integration of body systems (immune, urinary, respiratory, and endocrine systems), and continuity (genetics, reproductive and cell biology, physiological development across the lifespan).

Course learning outcomes

  • Explain the relationships between the concepts of anatomy and physiology for body systems.
  • Describe the structure and function of the immune, respiratory, urinary, endocrine and reproductive systems.
  • Describe the principles of growth and cellular transport.
  • Describe continuity in relation to physiological and anatomical changes occurring over a lifespan.
