Training objectives

------------------------------------------------------------
Modulo: 011142/1 - ANATOMIA UMANA
------------------------------------------------------------
To know the structure and organization of tissues, organs and apparatuses of the human body. To understand the relationships between structure and function in the tissues and most organs in the human body. At the end of the course the student must have acquired the basics on the general organization of the human body and the various components of the systems / systems, showing that he knows how to place what he has learned in terms of microscopic and macroscopic morphology in the context of the functions of the various apparatuses and systems, for preparatory purposes for the disciplines with which you are will have to compare in the following years of the course and for the more general purposes of a future application in professional environment.

(bone cells, compact and spongy bone structure). Description of the blood and its functions.
Blood components: plasma, erythrocytes, leukocytes, platelets. Blood groups. Elements of
hematopoiesis.
Muscle tissue: properties of muscle tissue. Characteristics and functions of muscle tissue

skeletal muscle. Characteristics and functions of cardiac muscle tissue and smooth muscle.
Nervous tissue: cellular organization of nervous tissue. Structure and classification of
neurons. Neurology. Axonic myelination process. Hints to synaptic transmission.
Histological organization of the nerve.

HUMAN ANATOMY
Introduction to Human Anatomy: definition of "anatomical position"; regions and planes of symmetry of the human body; definition of body cavity; definition and structure of body membranes; definition of full organ and hollow organ.
Integumentary system: description of the skin and skin appendages.
Locomotor system: introduction to the skeletal system. Classification and functionality of
joints. Axile skeleton: description of the main characteristics of the bones of the neurocranium;
spine, ribs and sternum. Appendicular skeleton: bones of the upper limb and limb
inferior. Overview of the muscular system.
Digestive system: peritoneum and peritoneal cavity. Organs: buccal cavity, tongue, salivary glands,
esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine, liver and pancreas.
Respiratory system: description of the respiratory tract and lungs. Pleure and outline of mechanics
respiratory.
Cardio-circulatory system: structure of arterial and venous vessels and capillary beds, main arterial vessels
and venous of the circulatory tree, Large and Small Circulation. Morphology, structure and system of conduction of the heart, notes on the cardiac cycle.
Endocrine system: anatomical-functional description of the main endocrine glands, pituitary gland, epiphysis, thyroid, parathyroid glands adrenals (cortical and medullary of the adrenal gland) and endocrine pancreas.
Lymphatic system: definition of primary and secondary lymphatic organ. Structure of the lymphatic vessels e lymphatic ducts.
Urinary system: morpho-functional description of the macroscopic and microscopic structure of the kidney. Urinary tract: male and female ureters, bladder and urethra.
Male genital system: macroscopic and microscopic structure of the testicle. Spermatic pathways.

Learning assessment procedures

Verification of learning will be carried out by means of a written exam. The questions will be
formulated with multiple choice questions (5 options for each question) and related to all topics
treated in class in the modules of Histology and Human Anatomy. The number of histology questions e Human Anatomy will reflect the number of CFUs of the respective modules in a weighted way.
To pass the exam it will be necessary to acquire a minimum score of 18 out of 30 and to have answered correctly to at least 50% of the questions relating to the Histology module. No provision will be made penalty for incorrect or undelivered answers.
