Course Description
(4-3-3) (Core Area 030) This course is taken for academic credit. Students will earn an A, B, C, D, F, or W. 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.
