BIO 193 - Anatomy and Physiology I
Introduces the anatomy and physiology of the human body. Emphasis is placed on the development of a systemic perspective of anatomical structures and physiological processes. Topics include: body organization, cell structure and functions, tissue classifications, the integumentary system, the skeletal system, the muscular system, the respiratory system, the digestive system, and the urinary system. Laboratory experience supports classroom learning.
