VTMED 6103 - Comparative Anatomy: Pattern and Function Spring. 3 credits. Letter grades only.
Prerequisite: VTMED 5100 . Enrollment limited to: first-year veterinary students; second-, and third-year veterinary students with permission of instructor.
D. Boerma.
The goal of this course is to study anatomical variability among amniotes (mammals, birds, and reptiles) and anamniote (amphibian & fish) species. This is accomplished by relating the anatomy of major organ systems in each species to a common basic pattern and considering the differences in a functional perspective. Five major systems are explored (integumentary, locomotory, cardiorespiratory, digestive, and urogenital) in a variety of species as available.
