BI 1010 - Human Anatomy and Physiology I2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits Course Description This is the first course of the 4 quarter anatomy and physiology course sequence. Topics include the chemistry of life, cellular form and function, genetics, histology, integumentary system and bone tissue. (prereq: None) Course Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Explain how common biological atoms and molecules interact within living systems.
- List the 4 categories of biological macromolecules and provide example functions of each.
- Identify the common components of cells, and list the general functions of each.
- Compare and contrast the types of membrane tansport processes (including the passive process of osmosis).
- Describe the steps involved in gene experession and explain how gene expression can modify the functions of any particular cell.
- Identify the general mechanisms by which cells can generate ATP as an energy source.
- Outline the steps in mitosis and explain the conditions under which mitosis normally occurs.
- List the classes of body tissues and explain the histological features of each tissue.
- List the histological features of the integumentary system and explain how they contribute to the functions of the integumentary system.
- List the histological features of bone tissue and explain how these features contribute to the functions of the skeletal system.
