To be admitted to the final exam of Human Physiology it is necessary to possess a positive evaluation of the exam of "Human Anatomy and Hystology"
The exam consists of a multiple choices test of 40 questions delivered through a PC with a score of 0.825 for each correct answer and 0 for each wrong or missing answer. The exam is passed if the student attains a score greater than 18.
The aim of the course of Human Physiology is to provide the students with all necessary information to understand, from the quantitative and biophysical standpoint, the mechanisms of functioning of cells, tissues, and organs under normal conditions and their control by the central and autonomous nervous systems.
