A thorough understanding of the systems of the body and the ways in which they fit together is imperative for study in many fields of biological inquiry, including medicine, physiology, developmental studies, and biological anthropology. This course will provide you with an overview of the body from a systemic perspective. Each unit will focus on one system, or network of organs that work together to perform a particular function. At the end of this course, we will review the body from an integrative perspective, creating a more realistic vision of the ways in which the systems overlap. We will also discuss current body imaging techniques and learn how to correctly interpret the images in order to put our newly-gained anatomical knowledge to practical use.

Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:

- Identify gross and microscopic anatomy and explain interactions of the major organ systems in the human body.

- Perform and analyze experiments in human anatomy (virtual).

- Use language necessary to appropriately describe human anatomy.

- Explain and identify how structure and function complement each other.

- Describe how anatomy relates to medical situations in healthy and diseased states.
