| BSC 2010C – Biology I: Biological Processes/Lab | Credit 4 |
|---|
| This is an introductory course in biology for majors and students planning to major in pre-professional and related professions. The course surveys the science of biology with emphasis on biological processes, including the organization of living matter at the molecular and cellular level. Topics include cell reproduction, metabolism, energetics, Mendelian inheritance, molecular genetics, and population genetics. Fee: refer to catalog section Fees and Financial Aid. |
| BSC 2011C – Biology II: Biological Diversity/Lab | Credit 4 |
|---|
| Prerequisite: BSC 2010C or instructor approval |
| This introductory course is a survey of the viruses and the kingdoms of living organisms with emphasis on their morphology, development, distribution, role in the ecosystem and taxonomy. The course also introduces the concepts of ecology. Biology II is a course designed for biology and related science majors. Fee: refer to catalog section Fees and Financial Aid. |
| BSC 2085C – Human Anatomy and Physiology I | Credit 4 |
|---|
| Prerequisites: Sophomore standing or satisfactory completion of ENC 1101 – 1102 |
| This course is the first in a two-semester sequence covering the anatomy and physiology of the human body. This course covers basic biological characteristics of living organisms including cell chemistry, cell structure and functions, cell metabolism, and cell division. The course also covers anatomical terms, histology, and the skin and integumentary system, the skeletal system, the muscular system, and the nervous system including the sensory organs and tissues. Each system’s structure and function is studied in some detail. |
| BSC 2086C – Human Anatomy and Physiology II | Credit 4 |
|---|
| Prerequisite: BSC 2085C |
| This course is the second in a two-semester sequence covering the anatomy and physiology of the human body. This course covers basic structures and functions of tissues and organs in the circulatory system, respiratory system, digestive system, urinary system, fluids and electrolytes, endocrine system, and the reproductive system. The objective of the course is to provide a detailed study of the systems of the human body as they function normally. |
