In this module you will be oriented to the requirements for the Anatomy and Physiology II (AOT1) Sub-Domain.
Activity 1: Domain of Study
The AOT1 section of the Anatomy and Physiology II Sub-Domain of the Science Specialty Topics Domain is broken down into one sub-domains and five competencies.
Subdomain 211.3 Anatomy and Physiology II
Competency 211.3.1: Metabolism - The graduate determines levels of blood metabolites, determines the effect of diet on blood levels of metabolites, explains regulation of blood glucose, recognizes the effect of exercise on plasma glucose levels, and recognizes the effect of diabetes on plasma glucose and ketones.
Competency 211.3.2: Homeostasis - The graduate determines the effects of given factors on enzyme action and explains specific effects of given types of enzyme activity.
Competency 211.3.3: Fluid Balance - The graduate determines the effect of given levels of hydration on urine output, explains factors affecting urine output, and explains how diabetes effects the need for fluid intake.
Competency 211.3.4: Oxygenation - The graduate measures properties of ventilation and gas exchange, can discuss the role of gas pressure and pH on ventilation, calculates measure of effective heart functioning, recognizes the effect of exercise on cardiac function, and discusses how cardiac and pulmonary function maintain states of homeostasis in oxygenation.
Competency 211.3.5: Mobility - The graduate measures muscle stimulation, recognizes the effect of muscle fiber length and stimulus on muscle contraction, and explains how botulism affects muscle contraction.
