KNPE 225 Advanced Human Physiology Units: 3.00
The emphasis will be placed on understanding the concept of homeostasis and the integrated control of cellular and organ responses involved in regulation to maintain homeostasis. Special emphasis will be placed on the systems that respond to exercise stress.

Course Learning Outcomes:
- Identify and describe what a given component in a physiological system is and does to facilitate “physiological literacy.â€
- Explain and illustrate the key principles guiding physiological function and homeostatic regulation to guide building physiological system models.
- Explain and illustrate integrated physiological models to inform their application in understanding changes in any physiological variable.
- Develop and apply physiological models based on key principles of physiological function for several different physiological systems to solve physiological problems.
