Test Preparation
Course Introduction
Allied Health Anatomy and Physiology is an introductory course designed to provide students entering health-related fields with a comprehensive understanding of the human body's structure and function. This course covers the major systems of the body, including the skeletal, muscular, nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems, as well as the integumentary and endocrine systems. Emphasis is placed on the physiological processes that maintain homeostasis, the interrelationship between organ systems, and the foundational anatomical terminology necessary for effective communication in healthcare settings. Laboratory exercises and practical activities are frequently incorporated to reinforce theoretical knowledge and to develop critical thinking and observation skills essential for allied health professionals.
