Anatomy and Physiology I

Biomedical Laboratory Sciences
  • ApresentaçãoPresentation
    Anatomy is the branch of biology dedicated to the study of the structure of organisms and their parts. It is intimately qualified with embryology, comparative anatomy, evolutionary biology and phylogeny. Human anatomy is considered one of the essential sciences of health science courses. Anatomy is divided into two areas: macroscopic anatomy and microscopic anatomy. Physiology is the study of the functioning of various organ systems, that is, explains how biomolecules, such as cells, tissues, organs and organ systems. Human physiology attempts to understand the mechanical, physical and biochemical mechanisms that keep the human body alive.  
  • ProgramaProgramme
    Introduction to study of human anatomy and physiology. Anatomical positions, planes and directions, anatomical terminology and concepts. Integumentary system The skin: epidermis and dermis; faneras (hair and nails); sweat and sebaceous glands. The hypodermis (subcutaneous tissue) Excitable tissues physiology (nerve and muscle) Musculoskeletal and articular system: Skeletal system. Articular system. Musculoskeletal system. Upper limb, joints and biomechanics. Myology of the upper limb. Lower limb joints and biomechanics. Myology of the lower limb. Vertebral column, joints and biomechanics. Myology of the head, neck and back of the trunk and neck. Osteology of the skull and joints. Myology of the thorax and abdomen. Molecular basis of human physiology ¿ Homeostasis. Endocrine system: Glands of the endocrine system. Metabolism and endocrine regulation of the body functions.
  • ObjectivosObjectives
    Develop and promote a learning dynamic, functional and detailed structure of the human body and the morphology of the integumentary system, locomotor (osteology, arthrology and myology) and endocrine. Know and apply the concepts and general principles of anatomy, biology and biomedicine. Understand the importance and usefulness of the terminology and nomina anatomical. Encourage observation skills of the student and give it the description technique by the use of appropriate terminology. Study the normal function of biological systems with emphasis on their homeostatic mechanisms. Identify, interpret and describe the constituent anatomical structures of the human body. Relate the form of anatomical structures with their function, including the measures for eliminating injuries and disorders associated with overuse of muscles and poor posture. Integrating the specificity of each anatomical system in the unity of the human body.
