Foundations of Anatomy and Physiology is a comprehensive exploration of the human body that will take your understanding to a more sophisticated level.
In this unit, you'll analyse the relationships between structure and function in the reproductive, lymphatic, gastrointestinal, urinary, and immune systems--completing your journey through all major body systems. You'll develop critical skills in evaluating physiological data, enabling you to recognise both normal function and disruptions to homeostasis.
A key focus will be applying your anatomical and physiological knowledge to understand common health conditions and effectively communicate information to diverse audiences--an essential skill for any health-related profession. You'll integrate your understanding of multiple body systems to explain physiological processes and connect this knowledge to health literacy and preventative care.
Through case studies, you'll strengthen your analytical thinking and explore how body systems change throughout the human lifespan, gaining valuable insights into developmental processes and age-appropriate health communication.
The comprehensive knowledge analytical skills you develop in this unit will provide a strong foundation for further studies and professional practice in health-related fields.
