Anatomy & Physiology 12

This course examines the biological processes that support life from the molecular to the organismal level. Students study biological molecules, metabolism, and enzymes, as well as how the body regulates its internal environment and transports materials across cell membranes. The course explores DNA replication and gene expression, the role of proteins in determining cell structure and function, and the principles of genomics and biotechnology, emphasizing the connection between microscopic processes and larger biological organization. In addition, students investigate organ systems, focusing on their structure, function, interdependence, and their role in maintaining homeostasis.
