About

Hey, welcome to this series about Human Anatomy and Physiology! In this series I want to cover the basics first and then go into following body systems: The Integumentary System (the skin)✅ The Skeletal System✅ The Muscular System✅ The Nervous System✅ The Cardiovascular System (Heart & blood vessels) ✅ The Respiratory System ✅ The Digestive System ✅ The Lymphatic System (Immunity) ✅ The Endocrine System ✅ The Urinary System ✅ As you can see there's a lot to cover! So it will take a long time to teach all of these. I am going to go into depth for each one of these systems. Prerequisites: High school level biology completed or another class of similar level. Also high school level chemistry or another class of similar level is recommended but not needed * More sessions will be added
