Vertebrate Anatomy & Physiol I
This is the first part of a two course series dedicated to the Anatomy & Physiology of domestic animals. This course covers gross anatomy and physiology of domestic animals, using a comparative approach of species encountered in the veterinary field. The anatomy is approached in a functional and systemic way in laboratory sessions. Students use anatomical models and preserved specimens of a variety of species to study gross anatomy of various systems. This semester the focus is on the skeletal, muscular, digestive, cardiovascular, reproductive and urinary system.
