The course acquaints students with the nature of man and his phylogenetic and ontogenetic development. Attention is paid to the issue of development and growth of the human body, morphology, heredity and other topics that facilitate the understanding of the interaction of the human body and the environment. Students will be guided to understand the mechanisms by which this interaction determines the characteristics of individuals and their populations. The aim of the course is to create a knowledge base that will enable students to perceive numerous anthropological topics as phenomena or processes anchored in the human genesis lasting hundreds of thousands of years. Content definition: 1. Man as a biological and sociocultural entity. 2. Interdisciplinary approach to human study. 3. Biological anthropology and its methods. 4. History of the species Homo sapiens, outline of human phylogeny. 5. Overview of human ontogenesis and systemic somatology. 6. Inheritance and environment.
