Anatomy and Physiology Lab
Students in Anatomy and Physiology learn the structure and function of the body’s organ systems (digestive, respiratory, cardiovascular, nervous, etc.). Students dissect animal specimens and analyze physiological data such as electromyogram (EMG) and nerve conduction, electrocardiogram (ECG), electroencephalogram (EEG – “brain waves”), and respiratory volumes.
