The subject HUMAN ANATOMY III is based on and expands the previous subjects HUMAN ANATOMY I and HUMAN ANATOMY II with the following content: the teaching of the musculoskeletal system of the skull, neck, muscles of mastication, spine, thorax and abdomen. And the morphology and functioning of the digestive and renal neural systems. The detailed study of the NERVOUS SYSTEM is essential for the clinical practice of physiotherapy, not only in the specialty of neurophysiotherapy but also in a musculoskeletal approach. It must be borne in mind that there is a reciprocal influence between the musculoskeletal, nervous and visceral systems. The study of the DIGESTIVE and RENAL systems is necessary to approach the patient holistically, since the incorrect functioning of the different systems can influence and/or relate to musculoskeletal disorders.
This subject considers the gender perspective.

Subject 0. PRESENTATION OF THE SUBJECT.
Topic 1: MUSCULAR-SKELETAL SYSTEM
Topic 2: NERVOUS SYSTEM.
Topic 3: DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
Topic 4: RENAL SYSTEM
Practice:
The activities of the subject follow the system of continuous evaluation, that is to say, that throughout the term the professor raises several activities, that the students must solve and deliver. The work of each one of the activities allows to value to the student the follow-up that does to the asignatura and the elements of improvement, from the comments and notes that the professor will do of the activities.
The proposed activities can be individual or in work groups. The teacher gives the instructions so that the students can elaborate and deliver them. All the activities proposed are designed so that students have a practical perspective on the topics that are developed throughout the ten weeks of the term.
This will facilitate the achievement of the knowledge and skills specified in this teaching plan. However, in relation to those practical contents of the subject in which the acquisition of procedural and attitudinal skills by students is essential, it can be considered, if the health situation requires it, the partial and temporary suspension of this with the consequent postponement in its continuity until the health situation allows it.
The student's final grade is the result of a continuous assessment and a final assessment. The approved of the subject is obtained with a grade equal to or higher than 5 points (out of 10 points) according to the following weighting table:

5,0 - 6,9: Approved (AP)
7,0 - 8,9: Notable (NT)
9,0 - 10: Excellent (SB)
Criteria for averaging between the evaluation activities: IT IS NECESSARY TO PASS THE FINAL EXAMINATION WITH A 5 OR ABOVE to AVERAGE THE GRADE with the other ASSESSMENTS.

The total or partial copy in any of the learning activities will mean a "Not Presented" in the subject, without option to present in the proof of recovery and without prejudice of the opening of a file for this reason
1st Call.
If the student passes the elimination partial exam with a grade equal to or higher than 6, the 1st call exam will only include the part of the syllabus after the partial exam and will be held at the end of the subject, during assessment period of the quarter in which it is taught. If the student gets a grade lower than 6 in the preliminary partial exam, the 1st call exam will include all of the content and will be taken at the end of the subject, during the assessment period of the quarter in which it is taught .
Recovery.
Within the same course, there is the possibility to recover skills not achieved during the subject. According to current regulations, you can only opt for recovery if the subject has been suspended. If the qualification is Not presented, you will not be able to opt for recovery. The grades obtained in the continuous evaluation will be kept as part of the final mark of the subject, both the passed and the failed ones, to preserve the criteria of the continuous evaluation, maintaining the same weighting as in the first call. The final mark of the subject is the result of the sum of the percentages of all the grades obtained during the quarter (according to the weighting table). If the average of the same is not approved, the subject will be suspended even if the 1st call or recovery exam has been approved.
Schedule and Activity Guide.
All the evaluation activities will have specific dates of realization and delivery, that will communicate to the student to the start of the asignatura by means of the Schedule and the Guide of activities.
Individual, group activities and participation in class activities.
Individual assignments form part of continuous assessment. It will be published in the "moodle" of the subject and will be related to the syllabus. Students' participation in the activities proposed in face-to-face classes and in classroom forums will be assessed.
Possibility of obtaining Honorary Registration.
When the final grade of the subject is Excellent (from 9 to 10 points), the teacher may award the grade of Honors at his personal discretion. According to the academic regulations of the UPF, the maximum number of MH possible in a subject is 5% in relation to the total number of students enrolled in it.
