Goals Physiology aims to teach the basic mechanisms of all organs and systems and their regulation starting from the cell, which is the most fundamental building stone of the human organism. It aims to teach the systems of human organism to work together and in harmony with each other to maintain homeostasis in changing internal and external conditions and to gain the authority to look at the organism as a whole. By teaching all the basic physiological mechanisms in the human organism, it aims to provide an indispensable basis for the learners to learn the mechanisms of diseases.
Course Content Biological control systems: homeostatic mechanisms and cellular transport (membrane transport, transport mechanisms), neural control mechanisms (membrane potentials, diffusion); central nervous system; hormonal control mechanisms; skeletal muscle system; coordinated body functions: blood circulation system, respiratory system, urinary system, digestive system, body defense mechanisms.
Learning Outcomes 1) Learn basic physiology knowledge.
2) Learn system physiology.
3) Learn to use knowledge in the field of physiotherapy.
