Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology

Catalog description

This course explores the interrelationship between structure and function in the human body at the macro, micro, and cellular levels, with an emphasis on how physiological mechanisms operate to maintain homeostasis. Topics include tissues, thermoregulation, and the major body systems (i.e., integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine, cardiac, respiratory, digestive, renal, and reproductive). Laboratory experiences will reinforce lecture material through the use of models, dissection and various modes of technology. Registration Note: Credit WILL NOT be given for this course and BIO-2660 and/or BIO-2670 .
