Principles of human anatomy and physiology will be presented using anatomical models, drawings, dissections, and histology as well as non-invasive interactive assessments of physiological functions and review of clinical case studies. Weekly lecture will provide content connections with NS 3410. Emphasis will be on location, recognition, and description of anatomical structures and their relation to function. Content includes anatomical terminology, gross and microscopic anatomy, and regulation of various organ systems. Evaluation based on attendance, two lab practicums, and lab assignments.

When Offered Spring.

Permission Note Enrollment limited to: College biology; senior, junior, or sophomore students. Enrollment preference given to DNS majors.
Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite or corequisite: NS 3410.

Comments Registered students must attend mandatory first lab; no shows will be dropped. No admittance after second week.
