HKIN 110: Human Anatomy I for Kinesiology

by Colin Wallace

Read here Read at LibreTextsPDF

This text address human gross anatomy, focusing on the structural framework that supports the body’s vital physiological systems. Students will examine how the musculoskeletal and nervous systems interact to produce movement, posture, and coordination. Through lectures, visual materials, and practical applications, participants will learn to recognize and explain the major bones, muscles, and nerves of the human body, understanding their locations, functions, and interrelationships.
