Welcome to Human Biology
In this section of Biology we cover the major systems of the human body from digestive to circulatory, including...
| Cells | Typical structure of animal cell (cytoplasm, nucleus, membrane) and specializations. |
| Circulation | Makeup of blood, the heart structure and circulation, blood vessels and capillaries. |
| Digestion | Digestive system, peristalsis, different enzymes, villi in small intestine. |
| Hormones | Glands' location; insulin in diabetes; Oestrogen and Testosterone in puberty; and adrenaline. |
| Homeostasis | Regulation of temperature and water control (nephron, glomeruli, ADH etc). |
| Immune system | Phagocytes, lymphocytes (memory B, antibodies); monoclonal antibodies. |
| Nervous System | Reflex arc, neurones (motor and sensory); synapses, eye reflexes. |
| Respiratory System | Inhalation and exhalation, gas exchange, respiration and oxygen debt all covered! |
