BIO-2170 - Human Anatomy & Physiology I with Lab* (S) (4)

Prerequisite: College-level reading placement or complete one of the following: IRW-0900A or IRW-0900B
Students study the anatomy and physiology of human body cells, tissues, and the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous (including special senses), and endocrine systems with an emphasis on homeostasis. Students are required to participate in a recitation. Students dissect preserved specimens, which includes a brain and eye, and perform a VH (virtual human) dissection on software for the muscles. Human models and physiological experiments are also used.  This course satisfies the General Education Biological/Physical Science with Lab requirement.

List Course Outcomes (consistent for all sections)
CO1- Distinguish between the various anatomical terms as they relate to cavities, planes, and directions.

CO2- Evaluate the components that make up the organization of the body from atoms, cells, tissues, organs, systems, and organismal levels.

CO3 - Differentiate the structures and physiology of the integumentary, skeletal, nervous, muscular, and endocrine systems.

CO4- Evaluate how the body coordinates activities to maintain homeostasis.
