This course introduces students to the foundational structure and function of the musculoskeletal system. Students will examine the major types of bones, muscles, and joints, exploring how each contributes to movement and physical function. Emphasis is placed on understanding anatomical terminology, identifying key skeletal and muscular structures, classifying joints and describing joint motions. Laboratory sessions provide hands-on experience through the use of anatomical models and surface anatomy on a partner, reinforcing theoretical knowledge with practical application.
