Learning Outcomes

  • describe the basic physiological function of the nervous, cardiovascular, neuromuscular, endocrine, respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive and integument systems for food and companion animals.
  • apply analytical thinking and critical synthesis of knowledge related to physiological and anatomical functions.
  • identify structures of the skeletal system of the cow, horse, dog and cat uses provided models and individual bones.
  • dissect structures of the digestive, skeletal, muscular, endocrine, urinary, reproductive and integument systems from preserved cat specimens.
  • describe the anatomical structures of the above mentioned systems on weekly lab quizzes and three major lab practicals.
