BIO 228: Anatomy & Physiology I

This course is the first of a two-semester, comprehensive survey of the ten organ systems of the human body, integrating chemical bases of the physiology of each system with structure and function. Includes a study of cells and tissues, integumentary, skeletal, digestive, respiratory, urinary and reproductive systems. The laboratory section of the course includes mammalian dissection and direct observation, by experiment, of the natural laws governing human physiological processes. There are three hours of lecture and one two-hour laboratory per week. *Students should have taken biology within the past 5years to be prepared for this course.
