ABSTRACT

Comparative Anatomy and Physiology is a science course designed for students who are considering enrolling in a post-secondary program with emphasis on the life science and/or health science fields. The course focuses on important concepts in comparative anatomy and physiology, including the muscular, skeletal, digestive, circulatory, integumentary, respiratory, and nervous systems of the body. The dissection of higher-level mammals is used as a tool for comparative analysis of the major body systems.
