BIOL 2389. Biology Academic Cooperati . (3-1-8)
Prerequisite: At least one semester of a college biology course and approval of instructor.
An instructional program designed to integrate on-campus study with practical hands-on work experience
in the biological sciences. In conjunction with class seminars, the individual student will set specific goals
and objectives in the study of living organisms and their systems. Lab fee.
BIOL 2401. Anatomy and Physiology I. (4-3-3)
Core Area 030
Required corequisite: Laboratory for BIOL 2401 Anatomy and Physiology I
This course is the first part of a two course sequence. It is a study of the structure and function of the human
body including cells, tissues and organs of the following systems: integumentary, skeletal, muscular,
nervous and special senses. Emphasis is on interrelationships among systems and regulation of
physiological functions involved in maintaining homeostasis. A laboratory component is included that gives
practical experience to material covered in class. Prior coursework in biology is strongly recommended. Lab
fee.
BIOL 2402. Anatomy and Physiology II. (4-3-3)
Core Area 030
Prerequisite: BIOL 2401.
Required corequisite: Laboratory for BIOL 2402 Anatomy and Physiology II.
This course is the second part of a two-course sequence. It is a study of the structure and function of the
human body including the following systems: endocrine, cardiovascular, immune, lymphatic, respiratory,
digestive (including nutrition), urinary (including fluids and electrolyte balance) and reproductive
(including human development and genetics). Emphasis is on interrelationships among systems and
regulation of physiological functions involved in maintaining homeostasis. A laboratory component is
included that gives practical experience to material covered in class. Lab fee.
BIOL 2404. Anatomy and Physiology (single-semester course). (4-3-3)
Required corequisite: Laboratory for BIOL 2404 Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology
Study of the structure and function of human anatomy, including the neuroendocrine, integumentary,
musculoskeletal, digestive, urinary, reproductive, respiratory and circulatory systems. A laboratory
component is included that gives practical experience to material covered in class. (
This course is not
designed to replace BIOL 2401 and/or 2402; this course is an option to help the student prepare for
BIOL 2401 or to meet curriculum requirements for certificate programs that require it at other
institutions
.) Lab fee.
