Animal Physiology

BIOL 4100


This course will examine animal physiology from four
different perspectives. It will examine the mechanism
that underlies different functions, the evolutionary
origins of particular functions, how different animals
perform similar functions, and how the environment an
animal lives in impacts how they carry out particular
functions. This course will explore physiology in a
wide range of both invertebrate and vertebrate animals
with a focus on food and energy, integrating systems,
muscular systems, oxygen and carbon dioxide physiology,
and water and salt physiology. The course will include
modules that will explore in depth animal models that
integrate physiology presented in the course.
