SCI 225 - Anatomy & Physiology II

Students will use the knowledge obtained in SCI-220 as a foundation to study the individual systems of the body as well as show the systems work together in the human organism. The cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal excretory, and endocrine systems are studied individually; the coordination of these systems by the central nervous system completes the course. Emphasis in placed on normal physiology, but enough pathology is introduced to give an appreciation of the disease process. Two hours per week of laboratory involve cat dissection, as well as student electrocardiograms, blood pressures and urinalysis. (Spring Only)
