Lesson 4: Anatomy
Seeking a pre-med degree? A major in Biology? Are you planning to become a nurse? Then you definitely should take this lesson.
The goal of this class is for the student to identify the structures that are part of the human body, as well as their location and functions.
The main objectives for the class are the following:
Identify the structures and describe the functions of the integumentary system.
Identify the structures and describe the functions of the skeletal system.
Identify the structures and describe the functions of the muscular system.
Identify the structures and describe the functions of the nervous system.
Identify the structures and describe the functions associated with the endocrine system.
Identify the components and relate the functions associated with blood.
Identify the structures and describe the functions associated with the cardiovascular system.
Identify the structures and describe the functions of the lymphatic system.
For students who require a deeper knowledge of this topic, special classes can be offered.
We adopt the US grading system which is the following
Letter grade Percentage
A+ 97–100%
A 93–96%
A- 90–92%
B+ 87–89%
B 83–86%
B- 80–82%

D+ 67–69%
D 63–66%
D− 60–62%
F < 60%

Absorb Activities
Let's watch the body
Using the link provided, make schemes of every system covered in class.
The first part of the assignment is the following:
Take a screenshot of every system mentioned above and write a brief description explaining the functions and importance of each of the studied systems.
You can do that in a Google Doc or Word Doc.
Also, downlad an image, like the example below, and name each of the most important bones of the body. Then, for full credit, send it to the instructor to this email.
Weighting
70%: Schemes and descriptions.
30%; Images and naming bones.
