CTAP 103 - Cell and Tissue Anatomy and Physiology This course is devoted to the study of the microscopic structure and the fundamental functions of human cells, tissues, and organs of various systems of the human body. The course is primarily concerned with the relationship between microscopic structure and function, to provide a strong foundational knowledge base for macroscopic human physiology. Topics include the structure and functions of cell membranes and organelles; the mechanisms of protein synthesis and cell division; the basics of genetics, epigenetics, and the control of gene expression; all types of membrane transport; and the generation, maintenance, and necessity of resting membrane potentials as a springboard into discussions of electrical potentials in future courses. Clinical applications are highlighted for each of these topics to demonstrate relevance to future clinical experiences.
