Description:

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. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 3650 and 3650L.
