BIO2061 ST: Comparative Vertebrate Physiology

This course will examine the basic physiologic mechanism of the major vertebrate groups of sharks, bony fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals (including Homo Sapiens). Several key systems will be studied including the fundamentals of physiology and the concept of homeostasis, metabolism and thermoregulation, neurobiology, endocrinology, muscle physiology, cardiovascular and respiratory physiology, and water and mineral balance. The concepts of homeostasis, relationship between animal physiology and diverse environments, and evolution will act as the major lenses through which to frame course concepts. Credits: 4.000
