334 HUMAN ANAT & PHYSIOLOGY ACCELERATED
1 credit | Grades: 1112
The normal and abnormal structure and function of the human body are the focus of this honors level course. After a detailed introduction to the four types of human body tissue in healthy and diseased conditions, the content includes coverage of the integumentary, muscular, skeletal, digestive, respiratory, circulatory, excretory, immune, endocrine, nervous, lymphatic, and reproductive systems. Although the subject matter is helpful for all students to understand, the course is especially helpful for students who are considering a future as a physician, nurse or nurse practitioner, therapist, pharmacist, bioengineer, and others. The use of physiological experimentation and technology is included in this program. An extensive full year research project may be required. Hands-on laboratory activities will be an integral part of this course.
