Course objectives
After finishing the course, students will be able to understand the terms used in general and systemic physiology of man. Students will acquire knowledge necessary for analysis and subsequent interpretation of phenomena taking place on cell, tissue and organ levels as well as on the level of whole human organism.
Learning outcomes
Student will be able:
- to understand and interprete various functions of human body.

Teaching methods
Teaching is conducted in the form of seminar. In the standard form of the seminar, students should read the literature of particular area of physiology and during the seminars, students intensify their knowledge in discussion with the teacher (seminar A). The second type of seminar (seminar B - demonstration) is an integral part of the course Physiology II seminar and takes place in the form of a combination of theoretical explanation supplemented by examples of measurements directly in the lecture hall on student volunteers.
Assessment methods
The knowledge of students from seminar A is evaluated at the beginning of seminar by test focused on key words, definitions and main relationships, which are listed in the schedule of the seminar in advance. The test is performed as on-line ropot in IS MUNI. Students must bring their own electronic device (tablet, mobile phone, notebook) with access to internet. Test consists of 10 questions (single choice) and 7 points have to be reached in order to pass. The demonstration test is written at the end of the semester under the same conditions (success rate 7/10).
