About This Activity
Did you know that the human kidney processes up to 180 litres of blood a day? What does a universal donor mean? Your heart beats 24/7/365, how come in never takes a break? Human Physiology deals with just about everything that keeps us alive and working. During this one-week intensive module, students will explore five systems (ardiovascular, hematological, renal, respiratory, and metabolic systems) through a combination of lectures, labs, and interactive sessions. In the laboratory, students have the opportunity to measure lung volumes, blood pressure, determine their own blood type, measure their own visual acuity and hearing, examine reaction times, and record physiological signs involved during a polygraph (Lie Detector Testing). At the end of the module students will understand how homeostasis in the human body keeps us in tip-top shape.
