Credits: (4)

Instructional Method: Three hours lecture; three hours laboratory.
Prerequisites: A grade of “C” or better in BIOL 131, BIOL 132, BIOL 231, and BIOL 232, “C” or better in CHEM 120 or CHEM 101:102, and “C” or better in BIOL 410.
Provides an in-depth introduction to human physiology and anatomy. The course will include an overview of major organ systems and processes as well as discussion of homeostatic mechanisms, physiological integration, dysfunction, and development. The course will incorporate aspects of organic chemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology. Laboratory will involve both cadaver dissection and active investigations of organismic physiology. Recommended for science majors, and students of any major who plan to enter medical or physician assistant programs. Not recommended for pre-nursing majors; ESHE students preparing for careers in athletic training, fitness/strength, health education, nutrition or sports administration; recreation students; or other non-science majors.
