Human Anatomy and Physiology Syllabus

This document outlines a course on human anatomy and physiology that aims to provide students with a basic understanding of the structure and function of the human body. The course objectives are to relate basic human body functions and life processes, name the major systems of the body and describe their anatomical structures and physiological functions. The course is divided into five units that cover cells, the cardiovascular and nervous systems, respiratory and musculosketal systems, digestive and excretory systems, and special senses and endocrine glands.
