This course provides a general understanding of nutrition as a science. The primary focus is on proper dietary habits and wellness, the causes of sickness, and governmental policies. Content areas include nutrients necessary for health and energy needs, and illness due to nutrient excesses and deficiencies. It addresses vitamins, minerals, and food safety.
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores the changing nutritional needs as an individual progresses through the normal life cycle. Social and physiological influences are examined. Specific disease states and nutritional adjustments necessitated by these as well as different nutrient delivery techniques are included. Prerequisites: BI151 Nutrition & Dietetics 1 and BI106 Human Anatomy & Physiology 1.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces the morphology, physiology, and genetics of microorganisms and their impact on health and environment.Organisms studied include bacteria, fungi, virus, and protozoa. Laboratories emphasize safe handling and culturing of live bacteria, as well as identification procedures. Prerequisites: BI102 General Biology 2, or BI107 Human Anatomy & Physiology 2.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers classical ecology, with a study of the interrelationships of organisms and their environment.Topics include basic ecological principles, natural selection and speciation, energy flow and productivity, and biogeochemical cycling of nutrients. Laboratories emphasizes quantitative analysis of various environmental parameters. Prerequisite: BI101 General Biology 1 or CH141 General Chemistry 1.

3.00 Credits
This course deals with the structure and function of major invertebrate groups. It covers phylogenetic relationships, morphology, development, and life history of representative invertebrate types through lectures and laboratories. Prerequisites: BI101 General Biology 1 and BI102 General Biology 2.
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines the physiological consequences of various disease states. Diseases are treated as threats to homeostasis.The effects of pathology on normal bodily processes are discussed at various organizational levels, including biochemical, cellular, histological, and organ systems.This course is designed for allied health students. Prerequisites: BI106 Human Anatomy and Physiology 1 or Department Head. Corequisite: BI107 Human Anatomy & Physiology 2.

6.00 Credits
Human Dissection is a laboratory course which gives selected students hands-on experience in cadaver dissection. Students utilize a regional approach to expose and identify structures. Regions of exposure are selected by the faculty who consider the interests and backgrounds of the enrolled students. Students are graded on the quality of their dissections and their ability to use their dissections to demonstrate structural relationships. Prerequisites: BI106 and BI107 Human Anatomy & Physiology 1 and 2, or equivalent and permission of the instructor. All prospective students will be required to submit an essay, not to exceed 500 words, explaining their interest in taking this course, and indicating the use to which they intend to put this information and the benefit they expect to derive from it.

2.00 Credits
This course, one of three modules dealing with human dissection, provides hands-on experience in directed, supervised cadaver dissection of the extremities. Small groups work collaboratively to explore, locate, expose, identify, and demonstrate varied joints, muscles, and associated osteological landmarks, ligaments, nerves, and blood vessels of the arm and leg. Dissections and exposures are selected to coincide with the prosection requirements of BI106 Human Anatomy & Physiology 1 and BI107 Human Anatomy & Physiology 2 and with student interests and backgrounds. Prerequisites: BI106 Human Anatomy and Physiology 1, or BI107 Human Anatomy and Physiology 2, or equivalent. Prospective students are required to submit an essay, not to exceed 500 words, explaining their interest in this course, the use of this information, and the benefit from it.This essay is considered in making course enrollment decisions. Students enrolling in more than one module are required to submit a single essay.
