Pages: 2Lecture 12 discusses the mechanical working of the heart by describing the blood flow through the heart's four chambers.
-
Pages: 3Lecture 11 reviews the different types of muscle and focuses on the cardiac muscle.
-
Pages: 2In Lecture 10, we discuss the muscle cells along with the classification of muscles. A basis of muscle physiology is also discussed.
-
Pages: 2In Lecture 9, we discuss the neurons involved in the somatic and autonomic nervous system. We also discuss the neurotoxins related to these systems.
-
Pages: 3In Lecture 8, we discuss the peripheral nervous system dealing with afference. We discuss the parts of the peripheral nervous system and the receptors involved along with their jobs.
-
Pages: 3In Lecture 7, we continue our discussion about the CNS and the different components in it. However, we also discuss the results of damage to certain areas in the CNS.
-
Pages: 4Lecture 6 introduces the central nervous system and the components that it contains.
-
Pages: 3Lecture 5 continues the discussion on the nervous system cell's structure. In this lecture, we elaborate on how action potential works, the different types of neurons, and the introduction of neurotransmitters.
-
Pages: 3This lecture introduces the nervous system and focuses in depth about the 2 basic types of cells in the nervous system: glia cells and neurons.
-
Pages: 2Lecture 3 discusses the process of diffusion using water. In this lecture, active transport and the mechanism of osmosis is presented in detail.
-
Pages: 3Lecture 2 focuses on the how cells can be studied, the fluids associated with cells, and how large/small molecules diffuse.
