Course: Introduction to Health and Medical Sciences (14001-1) (Draft) > Section: Understanding Anatomy and Physiology

Identification should include the name of each body system

- integumentary
- skeletal
- muscular
- cardiovascular
- blood

Process/Skill Questions

- What are the body systems? What are the functions of each?
- Why is symmetry an important concept in anatomy?
- What major organs are contained in each body cavity? Why is this information important to medical personnel?
- What is the location of the diaphragm, with relation to the body cavities? What is the function of the diaphragm?
