This course focuses on the presentation and discussion of vertebrate (primarily mammalian) anatomic forms and physiologic processes. Lectures are devoted to examining molecular, cellular, tissue, organ, and systems physiology while labs provide the opportunity to correlate this information with investigation of anatomic structures and application to animal health. Content includes the major physiologic processes and anatomic aspects of the central and autonomic nervous systems; cardiovascular, respiratory, immune, lymphatic, urinary and endocrine systems, and special senses.
