HLT109 Anatomy & Physiology I

*Not offered until Trimester 1, 2027* This course will introduce students to the structural and functional foundations of the human body. The course explores body organisation from the cellular level through to body systems, including the nervous, musculoskeletal, and endocrine systems, integrating anatomy and physiology to explain how structure supports function. Core topics include cell metabolism, neural control and communication, sensory and autonomic pathways, skeletal and muscular systems, and hormonal regulation. Laboratory classes reinforce learning through histology, gross models, and hands-on practical activities such as using physiology equipment and animal organs. This course provides a critical platform for students in health, biomedical, and science programs to understand normal human structure and function before progressing to visceral systems.
