Description:

This course is designed to develop critical thinking skills while studying the structural and functional components of the human body framework. Detailed attention will be given to the skeletomuscular systems, joints, and nervous system. In support of this effort, a brief review of body organization, body chemistry, and cell physiology will be studied from a holistic approach. Many lectures will be presented with interactive computer CDs. In the laboratory, the student will participate in critical thinking exercises relating human form to function. Selected laboratory sessions will incorporate CD ROM based physiology exercises. One laboratory meeting at SUNY Stony Brook Medical Center is planned which will provide direct opportunity to observe a prosected human cadaver. This is the first part of a two-semester integrated treatment of anatomy and physiology. Prerequisite: High School Biology with a laboratory or BIO 120 or BIO 123 or BIO 130; high school or college chemistry recommended (3,3) 4 credits Fall, Spring, Summer
