Description
This course is designed to prepare students for a career in the allied health sciences. Topics include structure levels, anatomical positions and cavities, skeletal and muscular systems, and nervous system. The intent of this approach is to allow the student to develop a concise understanding of how each system of the body functions and interacts. The concepts covered in the lecture course are explored in greater detail in lab. Model, prepared slides, and preserved specimens will all be used to enhance instruction. Prerequisite: Those who have not successfully completed a high school or college lab based biology course, within the past five years, are recommended to take biology prior to this course. An introductory knowledge of both applied biochemistry and biology is essential for course success.
