Course Content
|
In this course, the processes of thermoregulation, osmoregulation and their importance to control the body’s temperature and water balance will be covered. The course aims at the process of chemical regulation and its importance in the vertebrate endocrine system with hormones. Topics in this course include introductory information about movement and locomotion and the processes of human reproduction, development and embryonic development, and the nervous system’s structure and function, and also the differences between innate and adaptive immune responses.
|
Course Methods and Techniques
|
In this course, student-centered and teacher-centered methods of instructions will be used together. The basic principles of general biology techniques will be covered in the lectures. Each student will be asked to present an example of the general biology for life science.

Thermoregulation, osmoregulation processes and their importance in controlling body temperature and water balance. The course covers the chemical regulation process and its importance in the vertebrate endocrine system together with hormones. Topics in this course include introductory information on movement and locomotion and the processes of human reproduction, regression and embryonic development, the structure and function of the nervous system and the differences between innate and adaptive immune responses.
