  • NSC 210: Human Anatomy and Physiology I

    4.00 Credits
    Ohio Valley University

    An introduction to the normal structure and function of the human body. The course covers principles of the chemistry compounds (biochemistry), cells, tissue, and organs of the body. Four systems are studied for gross and microscopic anatomy and normal functioning; these are integumentary, skeletal, muscular, and nervous systems. The lab work emphasizes microscopic work on cells and tissues, study of bones and tissues, and dissections of brain and eyeball. Lecture 3 hours, lab 3 hours. Prerequisite or co-requisite: NSC 135 or equivalent. Offered fall. Designed for students interested in the nursing program; other students should take NSC 310. Students cannot earn credit for both NSC 210 and NSC 310.

  • NSC 211: Human Anatomy and Physiology II

    4.00 Credits
    Ohio Valley University

    Continuation of NSC 310. This class includes study of the respiratory, circulatory (blood, heart, vessels), lymphatic, urinary, digestive, endocrine, and reproductive systems. Normal anatomy and physiology is emphasized, but some pathology is included. Lab work includes dissection of body systems, plus selected physiology experiments in respiratory volumes, blood and blood genetics, urinalysis, and digestion rates. Critical thinking is developed using clinical examples. The students conduct research as group projects, such as nutrition, development of science events for teens, or clinical interviews. Lecture 3 hours, lab 3 hours. Prerequisites: NSC 210 and NSC 135 or equivalents. Offered spring. Designed for students interested in the nursing program; other students should take NSC 311. Students cannot earn credit for both NSC 211 and NSC 311.

  • NSC 231: Introduction to Astronomy

    3.00 Credits
    Ohio Valley University

    An introduction to the study of the Universe, including the latest theories on the origin of the Universe, the solar system and the Earth. Covered will be the origin of galaxies, stars, planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets, etc., stressing modern techniques of gathering information about the Universe. The lab portion of the course will include observations of the sky, use of telescopes, and use of the celestial sphere and star charts. May also include planetarium visits and other astronomy-related field trips. Offered on spring, even-numbered years.
