Human Anatomy and Physiology

Anatomy and Physiology is a course designed to introduce the student to the wonders of the amazing human body. Anatomy – study of the structure of living organisms and Physiology – study of the function of living organisms, together they provide the critical concepts for understanding the human body. The class will explore the different systems of the human body such as the Circulatory, Muscular, Skeletal, Integumentary, Digestive, and Endocrine Systems, to name a few, throughout the year. Students will gain an appreciation and understanding of how these systems work/function together to maintain homeostasis in living organisms. This course is intended to prepare students to take the AP Biology exam to earn college credits.
