Goal 1: Understanding of the anatomical terminology and nomenclature.
Objective: Define and describe directional terms and bone surface modifications
Goal 2: Understanding of the structural components of an animal.
Objective 1: Describe structure and relationship of bones, joints, muscles, nerves and blood vessels of forelimb and hindlimb (Practical only).
Objective 2: Describe structure of components of common integument, lymphatic system, endocrine system, nervous system and sense organs.
Goal 3: Understanding of the location of components of musculoskeletal system on the body surface.
Objective: Indicate topographical location of components of musculoskeletal system on live animals (Practical only).
Theory:
Introduction to anatomy; definitions and branches, body points; general body points of ox, horse, and dog (add animals of regional importance), anatomical terminology; directional terms, planes, bone surface modifications, Osteology; structure of bone, classes of bones and comparative aspects, myology; types, structure, naming conventions of muscles and associated structures, and comparative aspects, arthrology; structural and functional classification of joints, structure of synovial joints, gait mechanics; statics and dynamics, types of natural gaits and comparative aspects, integumentary system; Skin and its modifications, mammary apparatus, hoof, claw, digital pads, horn & hair, lymphatic system; lymph centers, lymph nodes and lymphatic channels, CNS; brain and spinal cord, PNS; ganglia, nerves, autonomic nervous system, special senses; ear and eye. Emphasis on species; name the animal not just the species
Practical:
