Subject title: Anatomy and Physiology
Course outline by Lecture
Lecture 1 : Introduction to Anatomy, The Cell. Structure (and importance)
of cell membrane. Structure (and function) of organelles. Interconnections
between cells to maintain structural stability in body tissues. The Tissue
Level of Organization, Neural Tissue
Lecture 2: The CardiovascularSystem: BLOOD, The Lymphatic System, the
composition of blood including the functions of the various components,
the anatomy and functions of the red blood cells, including a description of
blood typing, the types of white blood cells found in the blood and give the
functions of each, brief accounting of the platelets, hemopoiesis, including
RBC and leukocyte formation
Lecture 3 : The Endocrine System Compare the basic organization and
function of the ES and the NS, Describe the structural and functional
organization of the hypothalamus and the pituitary and explain their
relationship, Discuss the locations and structures of the thyroid,
parathyroid, and adrenal glands as well as the thymus and the endocrine
part of the pancreas. List the hormones (and their function) produced by
these glands. Briefly review the results of abnormal hormone production
Lecture 4;The Muscular System: Skeletal Muscle Tissue an Muscle
Organization, Describe the distinguishing characteristics of the different
muscle tissues, the organization of skeletal muscle, the micro-anatomy of a
skeletal muscle fiber, the fascicle arrangement in different types of muscle,
general muscle terminology
Lecture 5 : The Nervous System: General and Special Senses , The Spinal
Cord and Spinal Nerves, spinal cord anatomy, including gray and white
matter and meninges (give the general functions of this organ). The
structure and functions of the spinal nerves and plexuses. The structural
components of reflexes.
Lecture 6 The Nervous System: Brain and Cranial Nerves, the organization
of the brain, including the major structures and their functions, The
meninges of the spinal cord and brain, and integrate the formation and flow
of CSF with this information.The structures that constitute the BBB and
their functions. Review the cranial nerves, again giving a brief function of
each.
Lecture 7 : The Nervous System: Autonomic division Compare and
contrast the structures of the sympathetic and the parasympathetic
divisions, including functions and neurotransmitters. Show the levels of
integration in the ANS, and compare these with the SNS.
Lecture 8 : The Urinary System Identify and describe the components of
the urinary system and their function. The (histological) organization of the
nephron, the blood vessels that supply blood to the nephrons, the blood
flow through and around the nephron
Lecture 9 : The Respiratory System, the gross anatomy and functions of
the respiratory system.the structure and functions of the upper and lower
respiratory tracts in detail, including a description of the histology in each
region.Identify the pleural cavities, its membranes and the muscles of
ventilation.
Lecture 10 : The Digestive System, the general functions and anatomy of
the digestive tract, the individual organs of the system, including a
discussion of the gross and microscopic anatomy.
Lecture 11:The Male Reproductive System,The Female Reproductive
System, Identify the structures of the male and female reproductive
systems, including the gross and microscopic anatomy of the organs,
structures and accessory glands and their basic functions.Explain meiosis,
spermatogenesis and oogenesis.Discuss the changes that occur in the
female reproductive system during pregnancy
Lecture 12:The Skeletal System: Articulations, Axial and Appendicular
Divisions,
Lecture 13:The Muscular System: Skeletal Muscle Tissue an Muscle
Organization, Describe the distinguishing characteristics of the different
muscle tissues,Discuss the organization of skeletal muscle. Explain the
micro-anatomy of a skeletal muscle fiberDescribe the fascicle arrangement
in different types of muscle. Review general muscle terminology
Lecture 14:The Integumetary System, Cutaneous Membrane. Accessory
Structures
Lecture 15:Human Development. Explain the stages of development
starting with fertilization and ending with the neonatal period. Discuss the
major events of the first, second, and third trimesters of development.
Review the changes occurring in some organs as the infant goes from life
in utero to neonate.
