Learning outcomes: Knowledge: Student: W1 - defines the basic and detailed concepts of animal physiology [KB_W06]; W2 – understands the relationship between the environment and animal life of the structure and physiology [KB_W07]; W3 – has knowledge concerning the role of individual systems in the body's vital processes [KB_W06; KB_W07]; W4 – can explain the mechanisms occurring in the body regulating the systemic [KB_W07; KB_W18]. Skills: Student: U1 – defines the relationships between the various organs and systems, [KB_U06]; U2 – shows the risks that may arise from disturbances of individual systems [KB_U07]; U3 – student interprets the physiological adaptations to changing environmental conditions [KB_U10]; U4 – can analyze and think of an interdisciplinary [KB_U13].
Competences: Social competence (attitudes): Student: K1 – understands the constant need to update their knowledge [KB_K01; KB_K06]; K2 – is aware of the responsibility for the tasks commonly performed in the band [KB_K02]; K3 – has responsibility for the entrusted equipment [KB_K08].

Assessment methods: Assessment Exercise: the current rating (based on oral statements) progress and activity, regular (2 times a month) written tests to assess. The presence of the exercises is compulsory, the student may have only one unauthorized absence. In the case of excused absences the student is required to pass the relevant part of the material. Completion of exercises based on the average ratings. Completion of the course: students holding a valid pass a written exam training text (5 questions) in the ex
