Objectives
The curricular unit of Anatomophysiology aims to transmit to the student integrated knowledge of the structure and physiology of the human organism, namely the skeletal, joint and muscular systems, movement control and coordination systems and internal organic systems, developing in the student the ability to interpret, analyze and intervene in the anatomophysiological phenomena inherent to human behavior within the sport phenomenon.

Evaluation Methodology
1 Continuous Evaluation
Assessment procedure characterized by two written tests.
The student is considered approved when the final result from the arithmetic mean of the tests ((a+b)/2=x) is equal to or greater than 9.5 values.
Participation in this evaluation process is subject to a minimum rating of 7.5 values in both tests. It is mandatory for the student to attend at least 75% of the scheduled classes.
Students who are not successful in the continuous evaluation process will be able to take the exam in the following seasons, as provided for in the assessment regulations.
2 Exam Evaluation
Access to the regular exam and appeal follows the provisions of the current assessment regulations.
In an exam, written or oral, the student's knowledge of all the syllabus of the curricular unit will be assessed.
The exam, at any time, consists of a written test and an oral test, with the minimum score for admission to the oral test being 7.5 values.
The oral test will take place 48 hours after the publication of the written test score, considering only working days for the period.
The student's final classification in the exam will result from the following formula: Final Classification = [(Written test)+(Oral test)/2].
The student is considered to have passed the exam if the final classification is equal to or greater than 9.5 values.
