Outcomes

  • Collect, analyze, and interpret physiological data obtained by manipulating the physiological parameters provided by computer simulations of physiological processes/mechanisms.
  • Describe the physiological processes that each organ system contributes to body homeostasis; describe the interdependence of the organ systems of the body.
  • Use correct scientific terminology when describing the physiological processes central to each organ system; describe the mechanisms, biochemical pathways, and homeostatic control systems for the principle physiological processes; relate physiological functions to prior knowledge of anatomical structure of the organ systems.
