Syllabus for BIO210Y

This course is designed to teach the fundamentals of human anatomy and physiology. Throughout the course we will examine the design of the human body. We will also use a comparative approach placing the design of the human body in an evolutionary context. The information you learn in this course is fundamental and the groundwork for better understanding in upper level courses which deal with form and function and physiology.
