Why this is interesting. The knowledge gained and reinforced will help students understand how the human body is structured and functions, without overwhelming them with terminology, so that their understanding of anatomy and physiology becomes clear, logical, and useful in both their studies and daily life.

You will learn:

• The skeleton and its functions. Differences between the male and female skeletons. Axes and planes of the human body

• The muscular system. Classification of muscles. The concepts of synergists and antagonists. Fascia. Ligaments.

• The anatomy and physiology of the musculoskeletal, nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems and their functions.

• The anatomy and physiology of the skin, endocrine, and urinary systems and their functions.

• Blood flow in the body. The circulatory system.

• Immunity. Lymphatic system
