Annotation -
Subject acquaints with functions of all organ systems of human body in the rest conditions and during exercise. Special attention is given to regulatory processes, functional examinations and functions of neuromuscular system with regard to movement control. The course is focused on the acquisition of theoretical knowledge in the field of anatomy and their application to the functioning of individual organ systems of the human body.
