28123 - STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF THE HUMAN BODY II

Subject type: Basic

Coordinator: Carolina Chabrera Sanz

Trimester: Second term

Credits: 6

The subject of Structure and Function of the Human Body is taught in two terms.

In these quarters they deepen in the bases established in the first part of the asignatura and work the main Systems and Apparatus of the organism, so much from the anatomical side as from the physiological.

It is a subject that must allow the student to establish the bases of functioning of the human body in order to later be able to understand its dysfunctions, the needs of care and the approaches of treatment.

This subject has methodological and digital resources to make possible its continuity in non-contact mode in the case of being necessary for reasons related to the Covid-19. In this way, the achievement of the same knowledge and skills that are specified in this teaching plan will be ensured.

LO 1.- Identify and differentiate the different cellular structures.

LO 2.- Locate cellular structures according to their functional units.

LO 3.- Identify the macroscopic structure of the human body.

LO 6.- Relate and differentiate the structures and functioning of the different systems of the human body.

LO 7.- Interrelate the compensatory and feedback physiological mechanisms based on physiology.

LO 8.- Deepen the basic anatomical-physiological issues that allow the understanding of organic dysfunction.

LO 26.- Identify gender deviations in existing knowledge about health-illness processes

LO 28.- Identify the articulation of gender inequalities with other inequalities, of age, social class, origin, ethnic-cultural, sexual orientation, of different abilities and their expression in people's health. 

LO 29.- Analyze differences by sex and inequalities by gender in etiology, anatomy, physiology and pathologies; in differential diagnosis, therapeutic options and pharmacological response, and in prognosis; in care for people, as well as in other types of diagnoses and health interventions.

The methodology of the subject will be carried out combining face-to-face classroom time, with autonomous work time, with the support of the virtual learning environment as follows:

BLOCK 1 - Cardiovascular system

Hemodynamics

Heart: structure, valve functionalism

Pulmonary circulation

Arterial System and Venous System

Pressure and volume curves

Lymphatic system

BLOCK 2 - Blood

Plasma and plasma proteins

Blood groups

Erythropoiesis, leukocyte system

Hemostasis

Immune system

BLOCK 3 - Renoexcretory system

Kidney and excretory tract

Renal physiology

BLOCK 4 - Respiratory system

Respiratory tract

Ventilatory dynamics and volumes

Gas exchange

BLOCK 5 - Digestive System

Oral cavity - Pharynx - Esophagus - Stomach

Duodè - Jejú - Ili

Colon - Straight

Pancreas - Liver - Biliary tract

Mechanical and Enzymatic Digestion

BLOCK 6 - Reproductive system

Female Reproductive System

Male Reproductive System

Gestation: Fertilization / Implantation / Phases of Pregnancy

Fetal and Embryonic Period

Part and Post-Part

Growth and Aging: Hormonal and physiological bases

SEMINARS

Cardiovascular system

Blood and Immune System

Renal System

Respiratory track

Digestive system

Reproductive System, Growth and Aging

The activities of the subject follow the system of continuous assessment, that is, throughout the term the teachers will propose various activities, which students will have to solve, present or 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 professors will do of the activities.

The proposed activities can be individual or in work groups. Teachers will give the relevant directions so that the students can elaborate and deliver them.

LEARNING ACTIVITIES:

Competence assessment will be carried out continuously and through group sessions and individual questionnaires. During the term, different activities will be requested as a source of evaluation, so that the student will be able to know his own evolution. For the same purpose, there will be a written test in the middle of the term and a written test at the end of the term

To pass and release the subject in the eliminatory partial test, the mark of the exam must be equal to or higher than 7. In case of failing the partial exam, the mark corresponding to the final exam will be worth 60% of the mark. total.

To pass the course you must obtain a minimum grade of 5 points out of 10 in the final exam of the course.

According to article 5 of Royal Decree 1125/2003, the results obtained for the student will be graded according to the numerical scale from 0 to 10, with the corresponding qualitative grade: (0 - 4,9) suspended; (5 - 6,9) approved; (7 - 8,9) notable; (9 - 10) excellent.

When the qualification of the subject is of Excellent (mark superior to 9 points) the educational of the asignatura will be able to consider if the student chooses to obtain the qualification of matrícula of honor (MH).

In accordance with current regulations, you can only opt for recovery, if it has been suspended the subject. If the rating is Not Presented, you will not be eligible for recovery.

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.
