Annotation
Structure and function of human body (Module IA) involves basic theoretical subjects: anatomy, histology, physiology and biochemistry. In summer semester of the first year module IA is composed of 3 courses: Respiration, blood and body fluids, Urogenital system.
Acid-base balance, Digestion and resorption. The arrangement of the systems is coordinated with the teaching of the same objects in three other disciplines (anatomy, histology, physiology).
