| １． |
Outline |
|
Students will study the physiological function of neuronal cells, the role of hormone, and immune system, including innate and adaptive immune systems. Since the lecture includes the practice session, students will confirm their own degrees of understanding. In this lecture, students will acquire knowledge and train comprehensive thinking skill on DP1 and DP2.
|
| ２． |
Objectives |
|
Animal physiology is the study of biological processes within living organisms. The research area of animal physiology is closely related to neurology, endocrinology, and immunology. The goal of this lecture is to understand the mechanism of maintaining homeostasis in living organisms. Students can describe the technical terms learned in each lecture. In addition, students can combine their knowledge and solve the exercises given in each lecture.

Grading Policy |
|
Evaluation is conducted on regular examination results. A score of 60% or more is passed. Regular examination can be taken regardless of attendance rate, but students with attendance rates of less than 60% (less than 9 courses) will not qualify for re-examination. After the examination, I will explain some of its contents.

Textbook and Reference |
|
There is no textbook. Students use the distributed prints. After each lecture, the contents of the lecture will be posted on the LMS.

Requirements (Assignments) |
|
Review in advance the "Biology" "Cell biology" learned in the first year of university, "Biochemistry" learned in the second year of university. About 1 hour as preparatory learning. The contents of the next lecture will be posted on LMS. Note what you understood and did not understand. About 1 hour as review. Review the lecture that you did not understand, especially in the pre-study, and put in a note whether you understood. Review the exercises (listed in LMS) conducted during the lecture. The point that the student did not understand is that the student need to review the contents of the lecture in LMS, ask the teacher questions, and so on.

Note |
|
I strongly recommend to take this course for students who wish to take "Experiments in Animal Physiology" and students who wish to have an Animal Research Laboratory in graduation research.
