The aim of the course:
Aim of this lecture is to teach students mechanisms of skeletal and smooth muscle contractility, and to discover the underlying design principles of the neuromuscular physiology system and understand the adaptive ability of the neuromuscular system.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : gain grounding knowledge on molecular physiological and biochemical properties of muscle contraction 1,2,3,4,5,61,2,3
PO - 2 : contractile apparatus at cellular level1,2,3,4,5,61,2,3
PO - 3 : energy sources and pathways1,2,3,4,5,61,2,3
PO - 4 : the involvement of musculoskeletal system in exercise1,2,3,4,5,61,2,3
PO - 5 : mechanical, chemical and electrical events during skeletal and smooth muscle contraction1,2,3,4,5,61,2,3
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome
