Although there are no prerequisites established officially, it is advisable that the student has achieved basic competencies for self-learning, working in groups and pre-college Biology. Because the student will do practices in the dissection/osteotheca labs, he will acquire the commitment to preserve the confidentiality and professional secrecy of the data to which they can access because of their learning activities and have taken the good practice test. He must also agree in maintaining an attitude of professional ethics throughout all his actions.
It is a basic subject, scheduled in the second semester of the first year of the Degree in Biomedical Sciences.
The objectives are the study of the general anatomical organization of the human body, the principles of the initial embryonic development and the locomotor system, as well as the study of the descriptive and topographic anatomy of the trunk and head, of the upper and lower limbs, and the descriptive and topographic anatomy of the cardiovascular system.
This subject has its natural continuation in the second year, in the subjects Human Anatomy: internal organs, Structure and Function of the Nervous System and in Biology of Development and Teratogenesis.
The student who approves this course must be able to describe, with international anatomical nomenclature, and recognize the anatomical structures that make up the different parts of the locomotor system and the cardiovascular system in health, as well as to describe the principles of embryonic development, normal and locomotor system, in order to understand their alterations.

EVALUATION
PARTIAL EXAMS:
The competences will be evaluated through two partial exams. Each one includes the following contents and with corresponding weight in the final score of the subject:
The first partial exam: an objective test (30% of the final score), a structured objective evaluation (practical exam) (10% of the final score) and a continuous evaluation of seminars (5% of the final score).
The second partial exam: an objective test (30% of the final score), a structured objective evaluation (practical exam) (20% of the final score) and a continuous evaluation of seminars (5% of the final score).
Format of each partial exam: objective test type exam of 30 questions with 4 answer options, only 1 valid. Incorrect answers penalize 1/3 of a point. Structured objective evaluation (practical exam) of 10 questions in the first partial and 20 questions in the second partial related to structures indicated in anatomical preparations, each question is scored with 1 or 0 point. Incorrect answers or questions left blank do no penalize. But to achieve the sufficiency (5.0 score) it is necessary to obtain a 60% of the questions (6 of the 10 points in first partial and 12 of the 20 points in second partial). Evaluation of the seminar: students will have, on the UAB Virtual Campus, a script and didactic material to carry out a personal study of the contents of each seminar. Before attending the session, of each seminar, the student must prove that have completed, and passed, an on line questionnaire of the learning achieved (essential requirement). In addition, before each partial exams is scheduled another on line evaluation will be made of the contents of the 3 seminars that each partial includes.
To calculate the score for each partial evaluation, the following formula will be applied: objective test mark x 0.6 + practical exam mark x 0.3 + seminars mark x 0.1.
To release the contents of each partial it is necessary to achieve a score equal or greater than 5.0. Additionally, the following requirements must be applied (without exceptions): minimum score of 4.00 in the objective test of the theory program contents and not having a mark of 0.00 in any of the other parts of the evaluation (practical and two on line seminar questionnaires).
Calculation of the final score for students who have passed the two partial exams: mark of the theory program contents of the first partial x 0,3 + mark of the theory program contents of the second partial x 0,3 + mark of the dissection program contents of the first partial x 0,1 + mark of the dissection program contents of the second partial x 0,2 + mark of the seminar program contents of the first partial x 0,05 + mark of the seminar program contents of the second partial x 0.05.
RECOVERY (FINAL) EXAM
This exam is intended for students who have not achieved the sufficiency in one or both partial exams, according to the UAB evaluation regulations: "To participate in the recovery, students must have been previously evaluated in a set of activities, the weight of which is equals to a minimum of two thirds of the total qualification of the subject. Therefore, students will obtain the qualification of "Not evaluable" when the evaluation activities carried out have a weight lower than 67% in the final qualification").
The same format and the same requirements established for partial exams will be applied in the recovery exam for one or both partial exams. Students who for any reason have not carried out continuous evaluation of the contents of the seminar program will have to take a specific test of these contents (20 questions with 4 answer options, only 1 valid, and incorrect answers penalize 1/3).
Students who wish to improve their score in one or both partial exams (includes both the objective test and practical exam) and/or the seminars mark can also take the recovery exam. In these cases, the students must expressly request it to the coordinator within the established deadline, stating that they waive the previously obtained marks.
The following percentages will be applied to determine the final score of the recovery exam: mark of the test of the theory program contents (60%), mark of the practical program contents (30%), and mark of the seminar program contents (10%). To apply these percentages, the following requirements must be applied (without exceptions): minimum score of 4.00 in the objective test of the theory program contents and not having a mark of 0.00 in any of the other parts of the evaluation (practical and two on line seminar questionnaires).
The final mark of the subject will have a numerical expression, with one decimal, on the 0 to 10 scale and with the qualitative equivalence in accordance with the criteria of the UAB, fail, pass, good and merit (with the option of obtaining honour distinction if the mark is equal to or greater than 9,3).
Partials and/or recovery revisions: location and dates will be announced through the UAB Campus Virtual. The revision process will be done according to the current regulations of the UAB.
