This subject details the organisation, structure and function of the human body with
an emphasis on the role of the nervous and endocrine systems on control, regulation
and movement. Anatomy and physiology, including of bones, joints and muscles, will
be studied to understand movement and how it is controlled and regulated by the central
and peripheral nervous systems. Topics will include bone growth and repair, muscle
contraction and the nerve-muscle interface, as well as the role of neurons in communication.
The endocrine system will be studied with a focus on its role in communication, growth
and reproduction.
