What will I learn?
This General Physiology Course delivers a focused, practical introduction to how animals sustain homeostasis amid temperature and oxygen challenges. Participants examine gill, cardiovascular, excretory, and nervous system operations, feedback mechanisms, and stress hormones. Learners gain skills in devising basic experiments, choosing appropriate freshwater model species, gathering data via standard lab equipment, and drawing evidence-based conclusions from the findings.
