A laboratory oriented course dealing with the microscopic and ultrastructural anatomy of mammalian tissues and organs, with emphasis on relating structure to function. A study of microorganisms with emphasis on bacteria. Morphology, physiology and metabolism, ecology, taxonomy and methods of culture and identification of some common microorganisms. Designed for preprofessional students in biology and medical technology.
Courses integrate gross and microscopic structure of the human body systems with their function.
Laboratories synchronized with lecture-discussion materials and include studies with prosected models. 3403 preparatory biochemical, cellular and histological units studied leading to understanding of osteology and arthrology, muscle and nervous systems. 3404 Continuation of 3403. Study of cardiovascular, digestive, respiratory, renal, endocrine and reproductive systems. 3403 prerequisite for Bio 3404.
