While taking this class, I was also taking Human Anatomy and Physiology 2. Many of the subjects in Cell Biology correlated directly with my anatomy class. For example, when we were discussing cytoplasmic transport in cell biology, I was learning about the endocrine system in my anatomy class. Learning about how hormones are transferred while learning about what hormones are helped me understand the bigger picture and connect all the puzzle pieces, which helped me grow as a student. My particular field of interest is veterinary medicine. Being able to use the knowledge from cell biology and combine it with anatomy and physiology really helped me understand how we work and why our bodies do what they do. While we aren’t exactly the same as animals, the general concept is the same– we are all very complex creatures and there is a lot more to us than most people think!
