Zoology, yea its a component of biology i guess. Studying animals...we had to learn it but not as a separate subject but as a separate unit. Like about different animals etc...i think anatomy is more interesting but you have to learn thousands of names

Nope, Zoology is a whole different class to be taken. General Biology covers only the macroscopic and broad aspect of Zoology. But taking Zoology is an indepth course.

I loved Anatomy, it was so fun. But yes, thousands and thousands of pure memorization.

I have to study Pharmacology, general pathology, microbiology and forensic medicine for my 3rd medical...(in 1st and 2nd year we studied physiology, anatomy (embryo, gross anatomy, neuroanatomy, histology) and biochemistry)

I am taking Microbiology next term.

So did u go into full details of anatomy?

Like if i ask you about the branches of abdominal aorta wud u be able to tell me? And its locations, areas it supplies.

[Laila]

cool...do u know the examples of some nematodes?

Yeah: roundworms, hookworms,trichina worms, pinworms, fliarial worms

On Friday, i did a lab on a hookwarm inside a dogs heart, right inside of the aorta. It was disguisting lol

[Saifullah]

Yea...in microbiology u will go into these things in more details.

Ascaris lumbricoides, enterobius vermicularis etc...

Hmmm lets see....the branches of abdominal aorta. here are few that comes to mind:

renal: (2 pairs) it mainly supplies the kidney, its a big artery that arises from the inside of the aorta.

common iliac: (two) it supplies blood to the pelvis and also the lower limb. its located in the L4 vertebra

celiac: one of the anterior branches of the abdominal aorta......


shall i continue lol

oh good. Declared Bio major?

I took my general bio, anatomy, physiology, and most of my general eds already.

I have Zoology this term, and Botony with Microbiology for spring.

*high five @ nerdiness*

Ohh nah, as for now, I'm declared Psychobiology, so I don't have to take Botany or Zoology. I don't even think they offer that at my CC LOL. But the stuff I do have to take sounds so interesting. O Chem, Genetics..

It's just the labs that I hate

[Saifullah]

hmm u do know some anatomy...lol

u forgot some other main braches, superior mesenteric and inferior mesenteric

In anatomy did u study anatomy of brain??

I labs! they are so fun

i gotta be honest, i hate genetics though...blah

Oh yeah i thought you wanted a couple to get the idea that i know anatomy lol :D

[Mayana]

Iftar time

[Saifullah]

Laila did ur anatomy just cover gross anatomy, or even embryology, histology and neuro?

[Laila]

hmm u do know some anatomy...lol

In anatomy did u study anatomy of brain??

LOL! of course i did silly goose! i studied the brain, location, structures, functions, the layers of tissue cells, the muscles (the insertion and origins of each) the bones, and the littlest process, foramens of them, the reproductive system (even saw the cadaver reproductive one) the blood vessels of the whole body...lol i learned most of what i need to know for now before medical school

[Laila]

We mainly did gross anatomy and histology.

Embryology is another course that will be taken once i transfer to another university.

[Saifullah]

then if u study this before medical school, then when u go into medical school wat u gonna be studying?? lol

what blood vessels are involved in the circle of willis?
Do you names of the cranial nerves and where it arises from?

[Laila]

lol it will be a refresher :D

what blood vessels are involved in the circle of willis?
Do you names of the cranial nerves and where it arises from?

circle of willis: since it supplies the blood to the brain...i only remember two of them :/ the posterior and anterior cerebral artery and the internal carotid artery....that is what is coming to mind lol

cranial nerves: (lol i had to memorize all of its locations on the little guy on display lol) i know its supposed to be in roman numerals, but since i have iftaar soon, i am rushing through this lol

1) olfactory---olfactory foramina
2) optic---optic canal (eyes)
3)oculomotor--superior orbital fissure
4) trochlear---superior orbital fissure
5) trigeminal---foramen ovale
6)abducens---superior orbital
7) facial---facial canal
8)vestibular---internal acousitic canal
9) glassopharyngeal ----jugular foramen (correct?)
10)vagus---(jugular foramen (correct?)
11)accessory----jugular foramen
12)hypoglossal---hypoglossal canal
