The autonomic nervous system allows the human body to regulate things like heart rate, airway diameter, and digestive functions. This is perhaps the most important topic that students will need to master as it provides a critical foundation for their future courses. The special senses refer to the anatomy and physiology underlying sight, hearing, smell, and taste. Students will learn the basic physiologies of each of these senses.

Objectives:

1. Describe the functional divisions and structural organization of the autonomic nervous system.
2. Identify neurotransmitters, receptors, and selected pharmacology of the autonomic nervous system.
3. Identify the organs innervated by the autonomic nervous system.
4. Describe the physiology of vision and the steps in phototransduction.
5. Describe the physiology of equilibrium and the steps in the hearing process.
