Description:

P: BIOL-L 101, BIOL-L 102. This course analyzes the structure and activities of the cells that make up the human body, concentrating on the aspects of cellular morphology important for biochemical functions. Fundamental types of distinct multicellular tissues, including connective, epithelial, muscular, and nervous tissues are described, at the light and electron microscopic level, emphasizing the functional significance of the structural features. The various organ systems of the body are discussed, again primarily with regard to how their tissue composition and arrangement mediates their diverse functions. Each lecture is followed by a laboratory session devoted to the same topic, in which students examine the relevant cells, tissues, and organs using the light microscope and electron micrograph preparations.
