3.00 Credits
This course is designed to promote an interest in science through a better understanding of the human body. The organization, maintenance, and control of the body will be examined through the study of specific body systems in health and disease. Discussions will include the scientific process of investigation, cellular activity and cancer, basic concepts of energy and the digestive system, the relationship between structure and functions in the musculoskeletal system, and the role of hormones in regulating body functions. Students will learn how critically to evaluate information and keep current of the rapidly changing scientific world through news media and Internet activities. Lecture/Lab Hours: Three hours per week.
