The human body is remarkably designed in such a way that it keeps itself in balance, a concept known as homeostasis. Certain chemicals and larger molecules are the building blocks of life. By having a basic understanding of these chemicals, students will be able to appreciate how changes at the chemical level can upset homeostasis in the entire body.
Objectives:
- Describe the six levels of structural organization of the human body and how they interact.
- Describe the concept of homeostasis, and differentiate between positive and negative feedback mechanisms.
- Describe the structural and physical properties of water in an aqueous solution.
- Describe the concepts of concentration and osmolarity.
- Review enzymes and activation energy.
- Identify the differences between inorganic and organic compounds.
- Explain pH and its importance in physiology.
- Describe the structure and function macromolecules and classify various types.
- Outline the steps of cellular respiration.
