Course Description

A comprehensive study of all eleven body systems in a one-semester course. Lecture emphasizes how anatomy, chemistry, and cell biology permit the specific functioning of organs and systems. Lab reinforces understanding of the associated anatomic structures. Please note: BIO-134 is a 5 credit, content-heavy course, which requires a substantial time commitment and focused study beyond the conventional expectations in a standard 100 level science course. Four hours of lecture and two hours of lab per week.BIO-134 does not substitute for the BIO-233/BIO-234 sequence required by HFC's Nursing and Physical Therapist Assistant programs in the School of Health and Human Services (HHS). BIO-134 may serve as refresher/remedial course for the 233/234 sequence if taken within 5 years of original courses and permission is granted from the School of HHS.
