Course content

2 sections26 lectures16h 6m total length
  • Introduction To Anatomy and Physiology51:08

    This introductory lecture covers the initial topics important for Anatomy and Physiology!

  • Chemical Basis of Life49:39

    Explore the chemical basis of life by detailing atoms, isotopes, and bonds, then connect biomolecules like lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids to cell membranes, energy, and genetic material.

  • Cells42:40
  • Tissues of Humans47:08
  • Integumentary System38:01

    Explore the integumentary system’s structure and functions, including hair, skin, nails, and glands; learn epidermal layers, dermal papillae, wound healing, and sensory, thermoregulatory, and protective roles.

  • Skeletal System44:47
  • Muscular System32:30
  • Nervous System 144:45

    Explore the spinal cord anatomy, including white and gray matter, anterior and posterior horns, dorsal and ventral roots, decussation at pyramids, and reflexes like monosynaptic stretch and withdrawal.

  • Nervous System 258:18
  • Endocrine System1:06:22

    Explore the endocrine system, its hormone classifications and receptors, and essential feedback loops, highlighting ADH, oxytocin, thyroid hormones, cortisol, insulin, growth hormone, sex steroids, metabolism, and calcium regulation.

  • Cardiovascular System28:43

    Trace the arterial and venous networks from the aorta to the Circle of Willis and hepatic portal system, and note arteriosclerosis and CAD implications and treatments.

  • The Heart31:44

    Examine the heart's cardiac musculature, intercalated discs and gap junctions, automaticity via the sinoatrial and AV nodes, and the Frank-Starling mechanism governing stroke volume.

  • The Blood47:49
  • Respiratory System1:01:13

    Explore the respiratory system's gas exchange, from external respiration in the lungs to internal tissue respiration. Learn about alveoli, surfactant, ventilation, acid-base balance, and neural control of breathing.

  • Digestive System56:53
  • Lymphatic System32:44

    Explore how the lymphatic system defends the body by detailing primary and secondary organs, innate and adaptive immunity, and antigen presentation.

  • Urinary System45:46

    Explore the renal and urinary system anatomy and the nephron's role in urine formation, micturition, and osmolality regulation.

  • Reproductive System 141:39

    Explore reproductive physiology and sexual differentiation, detailing gonads, gamete production, and the male and female reproductive tracts, from meiosis and spermatogenesis to fertilization and zygote formation.

  • Reproductive System 242:17
  • Pregnancy, Growth and Development48:35

Requirements

  • No previous Human Biology needed. This will be a college level instructional model.

Description

This course contains all the content found in an introduction sequence to human anatomy and physiology at the collegiate level. Typically, A&P is taught in a two semester sequence, and this course has both 1 and 2 in the same place. We develop a comprehensive understanding of the close inter-relationship between anatomy and physiology as seen in the human organism. Introduces students to the cell, the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms, and covers tissues, integument, skeleton, muscular and nervous systems as an integrated unit. We introduce students to studying the endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive systems. Whether you are a current college student, a child looking to learn, or an older individual just trying to expand your knowledge, this course can give insight into your own body and let you grap the details behind the system that makes you human. Instead of spending copious amounts on a college science course, go ahead and get some baseline information here for a fraction of the cost!
