This course consists of an in-depth study of human physiology
and the interrelationships between major organs and systems of the body.
This course will concentrate on homeostatic reflex mechanisms of the human
body. Major topics covered include endocrinology, neural physiology,
muscles, cardiovascular physiology, respiratory physiology, renal
physiology, digestion, immunology, and reproductive physiology. The
laboratory program reinforces the foundational principles of
thermoregulation, muscle, cardiac, respiratory, neural, sensory and renal
physiology and introduces cadets to basic laboratory measurements and
diagnostics for each of those subjects.
