The course will examine the understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the body's systems and the mutual effects between the systems to maintain homeostasis. The subjects will learn:
1) Different types of tissues in the body systems, body sections, histology and the description of the microscopic structures.
2) Different stages in embryonic development, and the body systems.
3) Central and peripheral nervous system, synapses; rest and action potential; glial cells; brain structure; The cerebrospinal fluid. The autonomic nervous system.
4) the movement system, physiology of the striated and smooth muscle; The skeletal system: bones, joints, ligaments and tendons.
5) the heart system, the circulatory system; Blood cells, coagulation mechanism.
