BMS2011 Structure of the human body: An evolutionary and functional perspective

When you finish this unit, you should be able to:

1. 1

   Describe and contrast the structures and spatial relationships of the tissues, organs, systems, and regions that make up the human body.

2. 2

   Relate anatomical structures (tissues, organs, systems) to basic developmental processes and use comparative approaches to identify evolutionary and functional contexts.

3. 3

   Interpret and extrapolate sectional anatomical images to topographic anatomy using various methods and techniques such as medical imaging, measurement, drawing, and 3D printing

4. 4

   Integrate discrete anatomical knowledge into a comprehensive framework of body structures and systems

5. 5

   Work collaboratively to collect and analyse anatomical data.

6. 6

   Investigate and communicate, verbally and through writing, the developmental, evolutionary and functional aspects of human anatomy
