Students will measure the ways in which the body responds to varying stimuli and observe how those responses contribute to the maintenance of homeostasis. The labs are not only designed to support physiological concepts learned in lecture, but to demonstrate the process of scientific investigation as well.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLO)” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]CLO: 1. Discuss principles, theory and methods of testing physiological parameters of blood, respiratory system and cardiovascular system.
CLO: 2. Perform independently laboratory testing of physiological parameters of blood, respiratory system and cardiovascular system.
CLO: 3. Analyze the given data, plot graphs and interpret results.
