  • BIO 115: Vertebrate Anatomy and Physiology I

    4.00 Credits
    Bergen Community College

    This course focuses on the structures and functions of vertebrate organ systems, with primary emphasis on mammals. After a brief overview of vertebrate development and evolutionary history, the major portion of the course reviews each system, across all principal groups. Study of basic cellular biology and of skeletal, muscle, and nervous systems are included. Normal homeostatic mechanisms and pathophysiological conditions are emphasized, as well as the interrelationships of organs and organ systems. Dissection is required. Lecture [3.00], Laboratory [3.00].
