BIO210 Human Biology
3 semester hour credits
An introduction to human biology; the principles of chemistry; chromosomes, cells and genes; nutrition and digestion; function of the circulatory, nervous, endocrine, urinary and immune systems; reproduction, development and aging; principles of heredity; environmental issues; case studies.
BIO230 Anatomy and Physiology I
3 semester hour credits
Comprehensive study of the human anatomy and physiological principles, including the chemical basis of life, different parts of cells, the skin and the integumentary system, the skeletal system, the joints of the skeletal system, and the muscular system, and the nervous system.

BIO231 Anatomy and Physiology II
3 semester hour credits
(Prerequisite: Anatomy and Physiology I)
Anatomy and Physiology II is a continuation of human anatomy and
physiological principles, covering the endocrine, blood, cardiovascular, and lymphatic
systems. Topics include the importance of immunity, digestive system and
nutrition, respiratory system, urinary system, electrolytes and acid-base
balance, reproductive systems, pregnancy, growth and development, genetics, and
genomics.
