Study Guide

Learning outcomes

The student is able to
- explain the structure and function of the cells, cell membrane and organelles
- explain the cellular structure of the bone, muscle, epithelial, connective and nervous tissues, formation of the tissue structure and the functionality of the tissue
- name and locate the structures of the nervous tissue, the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system in the body, as well as explain their role in the regulation of the movement, memorizing and learning
- explain the main functions of the central nervous system from the physiology of sensory, integrative and motoric systems
- identify and name the main anatomical structures of body systems (blood circulation, breathing, defence mechanisms, digestion, passing of urine, endocrine system), as well as explain the main functionality of different body systems
