HLSC 1200U – Anatomy and Physiology I

This course introduces normal anatomy and physiology as scientific disciplines. Focusing on homeostasis and the interrelationships of structure and function as the underpinnings for the maintenance of life, the human organization from the molecular to the system levels will be studied, with specific attention to the organization of the human body, principles of support and movement, and the nervous system. Students will also develop a working scientific vocabulary to communicate effectively within the scientific community. This is the introductory component of a two-semester investigation of human biology.
