Anatomy & Physiology

Professor Dave Explains via YouTube

Overview

It's time to learn about the human body! As complex as we are, if we have enough background knowledge in chemistry, biochemistry, and biology, it's not all that hard to understand. We know about cells, and the human body is made of different types of tissues, which are just groups of certain kinds of cells. These come together to make organs and systems, all of which serve some pretty miraculous functions. So let's learn about structure, or anatomy, and function, or physiology, so that we are set up to learn all kinds of other subjects that require knowledge of the human body!

  • Professor Dave first introduces the importance of having a background knowledge in physics, chemistry, biology and biochemistry in order to understand the human body. He then lays out the different levels of complexity that one needs to understand, starting from atoms and molecules, then cells, tissues, organs, and finally the whole body systems.

    I'd rate the Anatomy & Physiology Professor Dave Explains course 4 out of 5 stars. The content is comprehensive, and Professor Dave's explanations are clear. However, occasional pacing issues could be improved for better engagement. Overall, a valuable resource for understanding complex concepts.
