Principles of Physiology will build on the foundations learnt in BIO1711 Vertebrate Biology to examine several physiological systems, with an emphasis on control mechanisms. The unit will consist of four themed sections: Homeostasis and Coordination, Cardiovascular System, Environmental Exchanges and Balance, and Nutrient Exchange and Utilisation. The unit will also explore interactions between systems in the maintenance of homeostasis. Laboratory and tutorial classes are divided into two streams: the human/ medical stream or the animal/ veterinary stream; students select the stream appropriate to their study program and interests. -- Course Website
