Institution:

Kapiolani Community College

Subject:

Description:

3 hours lab per week Prerequisite(s): Credit or concurrent enrollment in ZOOL 141. Recommended Preparation: CHEM 100 or higher level chemistry or biochemistry; 100 level or higher course in biology or zoology. Comment: Special supplies (dissection kit, 3 pairs of latex gloves).7 ZOOL 141L, Human Anatomy and Physiology Laboratory I, is a basic lab course in the structure and function of the human body which includes a study and experimentation regarding embryology, gross anatomy, microanatomy, physiology, pathology, and homeostatic relationships with regards to the following areas: body orientation, chemical level, cellular level, tissue level, integumentary, bone tissue, skeletal, joints, muscular tissue, muscular system, nervous tissue, spinal cord & nerves, brain, cranial nerves, neural integration and special senses. Upon successful completion of ZOOL 141L, the student should be able to: Describe general human gross, systemic, histological, and cellular anatomy through the use of models, computer images, palpation, observation, and dissections. Use basic chemical principles important to operations of the body. Use a microscope and prepare slides to observe, characterize, and identify cells of the body. Employ the scientific method to study, measure, analyze, understand, and report on physiological systems. Use a range of technological instruments/computers to measure and analyze physiological systems. Perform clinical tests to assess the condition of physical and physiological systems. Discuss current research related to subject matter. Employ critical thinking and knowledge of common mechanisms of physiological operation to understand how systems function, how disease interferes with these processes, and how clinical intervention reestablishes homeostasis.
