Learning Outcomes
1To learn cell physiology, cell membrane transition / transport mechanisms and homeostasis.
2To define the mechanisms of the inducible tissues, impulse and action potential, and the contraction mechanisms of the smooth, striated and cardiac muscle.
3Elimination of metabolic wastes in the kidney, urine formation, functional structure of the nephron, learning the role of the kidney in providing fluid-electrolyte and acid-base balance.
4To explain the structure of neurons and synapses, the mechanism and the properties of impulse transmission.
5To describe the structure of blood, its functions, clotting mechanism, blood incompatibilities, immune mechanisms, sedimentation and hematocrit.
6The heart cycle expresses the structure of the cardiac conduction system and the properties of intracardiac impulse transmission.
7To define the characteristics of the blood flow in the vascular system and the heart, the factors that determine pulse and blood pressure, pulmonary and systemic circulation.
8To disclose respiratory mechanics, basic events related to lung function such as inspiration / expiration, lung volumes and capacities.
9Spermatogenesis / oogenesis, menstrual cycle phases, erection and ejaculation mechanisms, fertilization are the functions of the male and female reproductive system organs.
10Learn the physiological functions of endocrine glands.
11Describe the functions of digestive organs and mechanisms of digestive / absorption events.
12Experience the physiology of senses such as touch, sight, hearing, taste and smell.
13Learn functional, functional and functional structures of central, peripheral and autonomic nervous systems.
