This course is designed to give you an understanding of basic concepts in normal human physiology using an integrated systems approach, with emphasis on homeostatic mechanisms and interactions. Discussions will relate physiology to concepts in physics, chemistry, anatomy, pharmacology and pathophysiology. Laboratory exercises are designed to give you an understanding of clinical application of principles discussed in lecture. Web site tutorials, practice quizzes, and assignments will be used to supplement the coursework and to enhance your success in the course.
Required:
Duplicating Materials: Human Physiology Lecture and Lab Packet, Dr. Iacino

Principles of Human Physiology by W. Germann and C. Stanfield
Background in concepts and vocabulary in human anatomy is highly recommended (equivalent to Saddleback College Biology 11). A background in chemistry is very highly recommended. This can be met by completion of our one semester chemistry survey (Chem 8) OR completion of inorganic and organic/biochemistry (Chem 2A and 2B) OR taking Chem 2B concurrently with this course.
