A. Course
Description:
Corequisite: BSC 1085. This course is a laboratory study
of the specific structure and function of the human body beginning with the
cell and stressing the physical and chemical processes important in maintenance
of homeostasis. The systems studied include integumentary, skeletal, muscular
and nervous. 45 contact hours.
B. Major
Learning Outcomes:
1. The student will develop an understanding of
the interrelationships of the structure of the human body and the specific
functions of its cells, tissues, organs and systems important in movement and
coordination.
2. The student will develop knowledge of the
chemical principles that govern homeostasis.
C. Course
Objectives Stated in Performance Terms:
1. The student will develop an understanding of
interrelationships of the structure of the human body and the specific
functions of its cells, tissues, organs and systems important in movement and
coordination by:
a. demonstrating knowledge of body organization
and organs including:
(1) describing
or recognizing the regions and cavities of the body.
(2) describing or recognizing the location
of a structure using the various planes
and directional terms.
(3) describing or recognizing the location,
function and system of the major organs.
b. demonstrating knowledge of chemistry including:
(1) describing or recognizing the major functional
groups and examples of molecules in which they occur.
(2) describing or recognizing the three types
of bonds and give examples of molecules in which they occur.
(3) describing or recognizing the difference
between polar and non-polar molecules, what molecules they would dissolve and
examples.
(4) describing or recognizing examples of
simple "building block" molecules (e.g., glucose monosaccharide) as
well as the larger biomolecule classifications (e.g., carbohydrates).
c. demonstrating knowledge of cell structure and
physiology including:
(1) describing or recognizing major cell
structures and their functions.
(2) describing
or recognizing the difference between diffusion and osmosis, in contrast to
active transport mechanisms.
(3) describing or recognizing cell structures
relevant to understanding mitotic division and the stages of a cell's life
span.
(4) describing or recognizing number and
location of chromosomes throughout a human cell's life span.
d. demonstrating knowledge of histology to
include describing or recognizing microscopic anatomy, location and functional
roles of a broad selection of tissues
within the four basic tissue types (epithelial, connective, muscular, nervous).
e. demonstrating knowledge of the
integumentary system including:
(1) describing
or recognizing general functions of the skin.
(2) describing
or recognizing gross and microscopic anatomy of the skin and accessory
structures.
(3) describing
or recognizing roles of the specific tissue layers of the skin.
(4) describing
or recognizing roles of the accessory structures of the integument.
f. demonstrating knowledge of the skeletal
system including:
(1) describing or recognizing the types,
locations, structures and functions of cartilaginous and bone tissues.
(2) understanding the process of endochondral
and intramemraneous ossification.
(3) describing or recognizing the internal and
external structures of a long bone and their functions.
(4) describing or recognizing the major bones
and their associated contours.
(5) describing or recognizing functions of bone
contours.
(6) describing or recognizing the functional
and structural classifications of the major adult articulations.
(7) describing or recognizing the movements of
the diarthrotic joints.
g. demonstrating
knowledge of the muscular system including:
(1) recognizing dense regular connective
tissues and their locations.
(2) describing or recognizing muscle tissue,
its structures and their functions.
(3) understanding the organization of a typical
skeletal muscle.
(4) describing or recognizing the major
skeletal muscles, their actions and origin and insertions.
h. demonstrating knowledge of the nervous
system including:
(1) describing
or recognizing the histology of the nervous system and the function of each cell
or tissue.
(2) describing
or recognizing the path of an action potential from a sensory neuron to the
eventual effector whether it's a muscle or gland of reflex arc.
(3) describing
or recognizing the protective layers and fluids (Cerebrospinal fluid) of
the CNS.
(4) describing
or recognizing the areas/structures of the brain and their function.
(5) describing
or recognizing the cranial nerves and their functions.
i. demonstrating knowledge of the sensory
system including:
(1) describing
or recognizing the functions of the receptors.
(2) describing
or recognizing the structures of the specialized receptors including those that
can be stimulated (receptor neurons) and those that help in gathering stimuli.
(3) describing
or recognizing the location and anatomy of the general receptors in the skin.
2. The student will develop knowledge of the
chemical principles that govern homeostasis by
describing the chemical principles which
govern homeostasis from information provided by instructor demonstrations, alternative
technologies or experimentation with artificial body fluids.
D. Criteria
Performance Standard:
Upon
completion of this course the student will, with a minimum 70 percent accuracy,
demonstrate mastery of each of the above stated objectives through classroom
measures developed by individual course instructors.
