Annotation

Obligatory course for Mg study direction Physiotherapy. The subject deals with mechanical structure, mechanical behavior and mechanical properties of man and its parts, and with mechanical interactions between them and the external environment.

The findings are organized both within the macroscopic ("aggregate") approach to the structure and behavior of the organism, where the distinguishing level recognizes organs, organ structures and anatomically delimited tissue components and their mutual mechanical interaction (eg movement in the elbow joint and its securing by the cooperating muscle group ).

And on the other hand, the microscopic ("cellular" and "subcellular") approach to the structure and behavior of the object under observation, where the distinguishing level recognizes individual cells, cell complexes, intercellular components and their mutual communication (eg mechanical interaction between actin and myosin during muscle contraction).
