Every vast system is made up of groups of tinier parts and components that have specific functions and purposes. The human body, for example, is a huge hierarchy of body systems, organs, tissues, and cells (the most basic unit). This course will discuss the structure and functions of the human cell. This course will start off with the outer protective cover called the cell membrane. It will then move on with the structures that make up the cell called organelles such as the Nucleus, Mitochondria, Ribosomes, Lysosomes, Centrioles, Golgi apparatus, and Endoplasmic reticulum.

In this series, you will learn about the human cell structures and their specific functions each must perform and complete in order for the Human organism to stay alive and healthy throughout its expected "Life Cycle". In addition, this course will discuss the "disease process" which is essentially a dysfunction that can occur at any time when any of the six basic functions of a healthy organism is negatively impacted, as well as the main factors responsible for initiating the "disease process".

We all know now that the cell is the most basic unit of the human body. As a huge collection of organ systems, we shouldn't be surprised that there are almost 37.2 trillion cells in our body. But where do these cells come from? This course will discuss Mitosis. It's an asexual reproduction where a single cell divides into 2 identical cells. This video will cover the process of cell division and all the key players including the Nucleus, Chromatin, Chromosomes, Chromatids, Centrioles, Centrosome, Spindle Fibers, Centromeres, Cytoplasm and last but not least the two new identical cells.

Mapping of the body is extremely important to anyone in the Health Sciences or medical fields. Whether you are a nurse aide or a surgeon, you need to understand the body in order to care for a patient properly. This course will discuss Views, Body Planes, and Directional Terms. Understanding these concepts will help you better visualize positional and spatial locations of various body structures as well as easily navigate from one location to another.

This course is a continuation of the Mapping the Body, Part 1. It now focuses on abdominal mapping where the body is classified into regions and quadrants. This process is usually done to facilitate thorough study and discussion and is used by clinicians to determine the organs and tissues that may be causing pain or discomfort. In this course, you'll learn the body's main regions and quadrants, and the organs located in each.

Now that you have completed the lectures on Mapping of the Body, you'll now start studying one of the 12 systems of the human body. The Integumentary System is made up of three major parts: the skin, hair, and nails. Its major function is to act as a barrier to protect the body from various kinds of damage from the outside world. In this course, you'll be looking at the largest sense organ - the skin, it's structure and functions.

The Integumentary System Part 1 course covered the three main parts of the integumentary system which are the skin hair and nails. In part two of this series, we'll take a look at some of the main functions of the integumentary system. The first and most important function of the integumentary system is protection; it acts as a barrier to the sun's ultraviolet rays and to the invasion of pathogens or germs through sensory perception. You'll also learn how the body is able to respond to pain pressure, temperature as well as touch.

This course is the third and last part of the Integumentary System lecture. After knowing the main parts and functions of this system, we'll now move on to the usual diseases of the skin. This course will cover acne, skin cancer, athlete's foot, melanoma, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, and more, as well as their causes.
