Anatomy and Physiology: Transport and Exchange
The third of a three quarter sequence in human anatomy and physiology. This course will examine body fluids and transport including blood, the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic system and immunity. Discussion of environmental exchange will include the respiratory system, digestive system and urinary system. Laboratory sessions include histology, anatomical models, dissections (heart, kidney, fetal pig), blood typing simulation and a respiratory physiology module.
Required technology to be successful: computer or equivalent, internet connection, access to Canvas and Zoom. Synchronous (live on Canvas/zoom). Our approach will emphasize participation in synchronous sessions; however, if students find themselves unable to participate due to technology, caregiving obligations, economic disruption, health risk, or illness, they can work with the faculty to pursue alternate options to earn program credit.
