I'm curious how in depth the knowledge requirements are in regards to A&P. For example, do I just need to know that air travels down the pharynx, larynx and trachea where it reaches the lungs and exchanges gases over the surface of the alveoli or do I need to know that "Columnar cells lining the epithelium of the bronchi consist predominantly of ciliates cells that contain montile cilia....blahblahblah"?

Thanks in advance!

You need to know somewhere in between the two.

Hope this helps.
