It's a 4 semester unit course (lecture and Lab) that's geared toward students entering the Allied Health field. This course is a study of the following topics and human systems: introduction to biochemistry, the cell, tissues, bone, muscle, endocrine and nervous systems. The functions and interrelationships of these systems are studied. The course emphasizes the homeostatic nature of these systems with some reference to human disease states. Cat and sheep are used as dissected specimens along with selected human organs, tissue slides and computer demonstrations. This course, along with Biology 145, meets the anatomy and physiology requirements for associate degrees and baccalaureate degrees in nursing as well as degrees in a variety of other related paramedical fields from many institutions.Transferable to UC, CSU systems as part of the Baccalaureate program
