COURSE DEFINITION	This course reviews;Basic themes and major mechanisms in cell physiology. After a brief overview of the course, we will examine a number of theoretical and substantive issues in the area of cellular physiology. We will then proceed to address distribution of water in the body fluid compartments, composition of the body fluid compartments, electroneutrality, composition of intracellular and extracellular fluid in the volume and composition of body fluids, transport mechanisms across the cell membrane, ion channels, equilibrium potentials, resting membrane potentials and action potentials. Basic themes and major works in muscle and central and peripheral nerve physiology. After a brief overview of the course, we will examine a number of theoretical and substantive issues in the area of muscle and nerve physiology. We will then proceed to address the molecular metabolism of contraction in skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles, structure of peripheral and autonomic nervous system. Basic themes and major issues in blood physiology. After a brief overview, we will examine a number of theoretical and substantive issues in the area of functions of blood, components of blood, the prevention of blood loss, blood types.
