BSC2085C

This course is the first part of a two-semester sequence in which students examine human anatomy and physiology through a systems approach based on the interaction between form and function, from the microscopic components of cells and tissues to the organismal level. Emphasis is placed on histology and the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, and nervous system and the endocrine system. This course includes hands-on dissection of animal specimens and/or organs. Dissection and experimentation are essential tools for studying the anatomy and physiology of biological specimens and are required practices in appropriate laboratory courses in the biological sciences department.
