BIOL 2214 Physiology 3-3-4
Physiology is an introduction to the many aspects of body function. This course includes a survey of the functions and biochemical processes of the cells, tissues, and organ systems. Functional interrelationships of vertebrate systems are stressed, including cellular physiology, communication and control, maintenance systems, and reproduction. This course emphasizes the basic chemical and physical reactions which are involved with maintenance of homeostasis, with special emphasis placed on humans. A knowledge of basic anatomy, as well as chemistry, is necessary in order to fully understand the workings of the body machinery.
