Anatomy & Physiology II with lab is the second semester of an integrated study of the structure and function of the human body systems and processes. The course focuses on the anatomical components, physiological functions, and homeostatic mechanisms of the cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems, as well as pregnancy and fetal development. Emphasis is placed on the interaction and integration of body systems in maintaining health, regulating internal balance, and supporting human growth and survival. Through virtual lab activities, interactive models, and applied learning experiences, students will strengthen their ability to identify anatomical structures, analyze physiological processes, and apply scientific concepts to human health and disease.
