Introduction

Welcome to C7's presentation of Unit 2 of Anatomy and Physiology! The purpose of this section of our blog was to provide information about the nervous and endocrine systems and how they work together to maintain homeostasis by communicating, controlling  and integrating our bodily functions. Our lessons are prepared in interactive smartphone apps integrated with  informational material about these systems in a way in which they are more relatable to our daily lives that are consumed by technology.
