Human Anatomy and Physiology I
Description:
Structure and function of the body. Includes levels of organization, homeostasis and disease,
anatomical terms, integumentary system, skeletal system and articulations, muscular and
nervous systems, autonomic nervous system, and special senses.
Performance Objectives:
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to:
1. List and describe the levels of organization and the general functions of the 11 organ systems.
2. Describe the importance of homeostasis and the mechanisms involved in maintaining normal
physiological limits.
3. Use anatomical terms to describe body regions, sections, cavities, and relative positions.
4. Identify the structures of the integumentary system and describe their functions.
5. Identify the structures of the skeletal system and describe their functions.
6. Classify the joints of the body and describe their structures and functions.
7. Identify the structures of the muscular system and describe their functions.
8. Identify the structures of the nervous system and describe their functions.
9. Identify the structures of the special senses and describe their functions.
10. Perform activities to demonstrate improvement in the general education goals of communication or
critical thinking.
