    This non-laboratory course is designed as an overview of the human organism. Cells, tissues and specifically, organ systems will be discussed. Emphasis will be placed on anatomical structures and important physiological phenomena. Some aspects of genetics and human disease may be introduced. This course does not satisfy a laboratory science elective. Lecture ( 45.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013 and ENG-023
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is designed as a study of humans and their relationship with the environment. It considers basic concepts of ecology and how humans have altered and modified the environment through pollution and other changes imposed by technological advances. This course does not satisfy a laboratory science elective. Lecture ( 45.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013 and ENG-023
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course is a study of the relationships between living organisms and their environment. It includes the examination of basic biological concepts including the scientific method, cell structure and function, metabolism, genetics and evolution. Laboratory exercises include computer modeling, field investigations and laboratory experiments. Lecture ( 30.00) Laboratory ( 60.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029
  • 4.00 Credits

    This introduction to biology covers in detail the basic biological concepts of scientific method, cell structure and function, metabolism, evolution, genetics, and ecology, accompanied by appropriate illustrations. The principles are then discussed in relation to viruses, bacteria, protozoa and plants. Laboratory exercises are chosen to complement the material presented during lecture hours. Lecture ( 30.00) Laboratory ( 60.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029
  • 4.00 Credits

    This second semester continuation of the basic principles explored in Biology I examines members of the animal kingdom with particular emphasis on mammalian anatomy and physiology. Laboratory work complements the lecture material. Lecture ( 30.00) Laboratory ( 60.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course is designed to introduce the basic principles of anatomy and physiology to nursing and allied health students. Following an introduction to the organization of the human body, basic chemistry, and basic cell biology, Basic Anatomy and Physiology I (BIO 117) examines the histology, gross anatomy and functions of organs of the integumentary, skeleton, muscular, and nervous systems. Laboratories are designed to supplement the lecture material and include the use of the following materials: histology slides, models, preserved specimens and computer simulated physiology exercises. Lecture ( 30.00) Laboratory ( 60.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029

    This course is designed to introduce the basic principles of anatomy and physiology to nursing and allied health students. Following an introduction to the organization of the human body in Basic Anatomy and Physiology I (BIO-117), this continuation course examines the histology, gross anatomy and functions of organs of the endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive systems. Laboratories are designed to supplement the lecture material and include the use of the following material: histology slides, models, preserved specimens and computer simulated physiology exercises. Lecture ( 30.00) Laboratory ( 60.00) Prerequisites: BIO-117
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course is designed to introduce the basic principles of microbiology to nursing and allied health students. Topics include biological concepts of cell structure, growth, reproduction, genetics, classification, beneficial microbe/human interactions, infections and host defenses. Laboratory exercises are designed to teach microscopy, staining, cultivation and identification of bacteria, control of microbial growth, aseptic technique and proper disposal of contaminated items. Lecture and laboratory activities will emphasize analytical thinking and problem-solving ability. Lecture ( 45. 00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029
  • 4.00 Credits

    This laboratory-based course is designed to introduce nonscience majors to scientific principles by using the microbial world as an investigative model. The course will introduce the student to the scientific method, the cellular basis of life, and the basic concepts of microbiology. The course will illustrate the interdependence of humans and microbes, explore the role of microorganisms in establishing and maintaining the environment and examine the establishment, spread and impact of infectious diseases. Contemporary issues in microbiology such as the development of antibiotic resistance, and the use of microorganisms in genetic engineering and biological warfare will also be explored. This course is designed to fulfill the general education goals of the college, with an emphasis on improving critical thinking and scientific literacy. This course will fulfill the natural science requirement for non-science majors. Lecture ( 30.00) Laboratory ( 60.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course discusses human anatomy and physiology and their inter-relationships. Lectures and laboratory exercises cover the salient features of mammalian morphology and physiology with special reference to humans. This course is designed primarily for specific programs at CCC and may not be transferable as an Anatomy & Physiology course. Lecture ( 30.00) Laboratory ( 60.00) Prerequisites: BIO-111
