5.00 Credits
This course encompasses the study of all physiological systems and how they function cohesively to accomplish homeostasis. The human physiology course places an emphasis on correlated studies in anatomical, biological, physiological and chemical sciences in order to comprehend the complexity held within the human organism. The laboratory component complements the material covered in lectures and focuses on the study of human body parts and functions of all systems, with particular emphasis on urinary, cardiovascular, muscular and nervous systems. Prerequisites: Principles of Anatomy and Physiology
-
1.00 Credits
The laboratory study of human physiology covers homeostatis and pH, molecular and Brownian movement, enzyme effects, human reflex, nervous and sensory systems, blood physiology, blood pressure, respiration, body fat and physical fitness. Prerequisite: Human Physiology
-
3.00 Credits
This course presents detailed genetic concepts using Mendelian, molecular, and population genetics, and includes information on various inherited human diseases. Prerequisites: Principles of Biology, College Algebra
-
3.00 Credits
This course presents an overview of the morphogenesis of the major human body systems from conception until birth. Emphasis is given to the development of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems. Prerequisites: Principles of Anatomy and Physiology Corequisites: Human Anatomy or Human Physiology
-
5.00 Credits
This course provides a bridge between Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry with an emphasis on the integration of biological processes, including biochemical catalysis (enzymes), bioenergetics, acid/base in biological systems, and integration and control of metabolism. A general introduction to the structure and function of biological macromolecules, such as proteins, carbohydrate, lipids, and nucleic acids and their monomers, such as amino acids are an essential part of this course. Corequisite: Organic Chemistry II
-
5.00 Credits
This course presents an overview of the cells, tissues, and organs of the human body, with emphasis given to the microanatomy of the epithelial, connective, muscular and nervous tissues. Laboratory exercises complement and supplement lecture topics. Prerequisite: Principles of Anatomy and Physiology Corequisite: Human Anatomy or Human Physiology
-
3.00 Credits
This course presents an intensive study of cellular organelles and their functions. Topics include the structure of biomembranes, cellular respiration, and the electrophysiology of nerve and muscle cells. Prerequisite: Principles of Cell Biology, Human anatomy or a director-approved course with cellular and histological components. Corequisite: Biochemistry I
-
1.00 Credits
This course presents an introduction to the professional literature and the skills necessary to use a research library. Topics include reading and critiquing professional literature and research reporting, terminology and statistics. Prerequisites: English Composition I, Principles of Anatomy and Physiology, Organic Chemistry I, Algebra
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides the opportunity for the student to work independently on an approved research topic in the field of health sciences. The biological knowledge achieved in the course prerequisites is enhanced through this independent study of current biological developments. Prerequisites: English Composition I, Principles of Biology, Principles of Anatomy and Physiology
-
