Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to present to the students basic physiological processes of the organism at a cell level. The students further learn about the general principles of the physiology of energy conversion, control of homeostasis and neuro-humoral regulation of the organism. Information about this course was translated to English within the project Internationalization of the Faculty of Physical Culture, Palacký University, Olomouc, No. CZ.1.07/2.2.00/28.0028, co-funded by the European Social Fund and the Government of the Czech Republic.
Upon completion of the course the student: 1) Is able to describe metabolism at a cell level, 2) Knows the neuro-humoral regulation of the organism, 3) Knows endocrine glands and is able to describe the function of various hormones.
