BIO 210: Human Anatomy and Physiology I

Goal: To introduce the student to human gross and microscopic anatomy and physiology. To encourage the student to think synthetically about the interrelationships among form, function, development, and pathology of the human body.
Content: An introduction to organism structure, basic biochemistry, cytology and cell physiology, and histology and tissue physiology. A practical study of the structure and function of the human integument, skeletons, nervous, and sensory systems. The emphases of the course are on relating structure to function, relating gross and microscopic anatomy, developing 3-dimensional visualization skills, and becoming comfortable with the terminology of human anatomy and physiology. This is the first semester of the two-semester sequence in Human Anatomy and Physiology at an intermediate level.
