Physiology I
This course
emphasizes the functions of cellular structures which regulate
homeostasis as well as their role in cell division and genetic
control of protein synthesis. Emphasis is placed on the role of
the cell membrane in the control of cellular events, particularly
the propagation of action potentials and their role in muscle
contraction. The effects of the physiology of hormones, their
role in homeostasis, and functional changes associated with homeostasis
is considered. Prerequisites: AN511, BC511.
2 lecture hours, 1 laboratory hours, 2.5 semester hours

Physiology II
This course
is the study of the physiology at the organ and systems level.
Included is the study of the circulatory, respiratory, renal,
cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and urogenital systems. Also
included is the study of the endocrine system and its interrelationships
with various organs and systems. There is an integration of normal
physiology with pathophysiology and clinical concepts. Prerequisites:
PH521.
4 lecture hours, 2 laboratory hours, 5 semester hours
