3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: satisfactory completion of College Preparatory English (ENC0020) and College Preparatory Reading (REA 0002) and Elementary Algebra (MAT0024C) or appropriate placement scores. Recommended corequisite: BSC2085L. High school chemistry, high school biology (or above) and Medical Terminology are strongly recommended before taking this course. This course, along with BSC2085L, is the first half of an investigation of the structure and functioning of the human body. The lecture and the lab together cover basic chemistry, basic cell biology, tissues and the integumentary system, skeletal system, muscular system and nervous system. Designed primarily for nursing, respiratory therapy, dental hygiene and other health care professions, the primary emphasis is physiology (function). Not intended for biology majors or non-science majors. A comprehensive final exam in all sections of this course will test the student's knowledge of all the units covered in the semester. Lecture 3 hours. Recitation 1 hour. Special fee.
