BIO1013 and BIO1014

This course provides an overview of human anatomy and physiology, focusing on chemical, cellular, and systemic levels of organization. Students will describe chemical organization and homeostasis, explain cellular and tissue structures, and identify and discuss major divisions and functions of the endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic and immune, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive systems. Through both instruction and practical applications, students will gain a comprehensive understanding of the body's structure and function.

This course covers essential laboratory practices for Anatomy & Physiology, including equipment usage, disposal techniques, and universal precautions. Students will learn to identify the cavities, regions and quadrants associated with human anatomy, as well as explain the level of organization and the structure and function of human cells and tissues. Emphasis is placed on applying knowledge of the endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic and immune, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive systems to understand human physiology. Through instruction and practical exercises, students will develop a solid foundation in laboratory techniques and anatomical and physiological concepts.
