312 Principles of Human Physiology II
Second of a two quarter sequence covering the following areas of physiology: cell, neuromuscular, heart and circulation, endocrine, brain and special senses, body fluids and kidney, respiration, digestion, temperature control and metabolism. These courses are an excellent preparation for many fields of study including medical, dental and optometry school. It is also popular with undergraduate studies. It is a required course in the Departments of Biology, Circulation Technology and Exercise Science. It is also required in the College of Medicines MedPath Program and the Independent Study Program.
Prerequisites: 311 (Normally taken directly following 311).
