Anatomy & Physiology: Exchange and Energy
About this Course
The course of the second A&P specialization continues a systems-based approach to human anatomy and physiology at the organ, organ system, and organism level. Two major body systems related to gas exchange and energy consumption will be explored in detail: the respiratory and digestive systems. Course material will cover both the structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) of each system with direct application to human development and disease. After completing this course, you will be able to: 1. Identify the major parts of the respiratory and digestive systems; 2. Describe normal human anatomy structure and function for the respiratory and digestive systems; 3. Relate anatomical structure and function at the cellular, tissue, organ, and body system levels to clinical diagnoses and dysfunction of the respiratory and digestive systems.Created by: Rice University
