CATALOG DESCRIPTION:

BIOL 2402  Anatomy and Physiology II

A continuation of the study of the structure and function of the mammalian system with emphasis on physiology.  Topics include genetics, digestion, nutrition, metabolism, respiratory systems, blood and cardiovascular system, endocrine system, lymphatic and immune systems, urinary system, reproduction and human development.  Laboratory includes correlated physiological experiments and continued mammalian dissection.

TEXTBOOK:

Required : Human Anatomy and Physiology Laboratory Manual, current edition cat version with Physio Ex,  Elaine Marieb

Suggested : Physiopack Interactive Physiology  CD-ROM multipack, A.D.A.M. / Benjamin Cummings

                 Bone Atlas

                  Web-Based Cat Dissection Review for Human A&P, John Waters

SUPPLIES:

Loose-leaf notebook to keep lab reports and handouts

Colored pencils or markers

Lab coat or apron, surgical gloves, surgical or dust mask, if desired, for some labs

Safety eyeware or glasses

Dissecting kit

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

The objective of this course sequence is to provide the biology major with the level of detail in anatomy and physiology needed to enable a student to undertake further study in other majors' courses, nursing, pre‑med, physical education, physical therapy, etc.  The laboratory is designed to introduce the biology major to techniques of experimentation, observation, and reporting that will be required at more advanced levels of coursework and of professional work experience.

Course activities and knowledge objectives address increasing each student's competency in reading, writing, critical thinking and analysis.  Experiential learning activities are utilized as a means of instruction in laboratory components of courses and through research, class projects, and skill building exercises with problem analysis.

The SCANS skill building philosophy of establishing a foundation of basic skills, thinking skills, and personal qualities are addressed, as reported above, in each course.  The mastery of five identified competencies; resource identification, interpersonal skills, information acquisition and use, systems understanding and use, and knowledge of current technology is necessary to complete course requirements.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS:

The laboratory will have three (3) comprehensive practical examinations to assess student understanding of lab materials and methods, in addition to eight (8) lab quizzes and at least four (4) formal typed lab reports (possibly more) as required by the lab instructor.  No more than two lab quiz grades may be dropped, and then at the discretion of the lab instructor.  The instructor has the option of giving the lab quizzes over material covered in the previous lab(s) or to be covered in that day's upcoming lab, so students should be prepared for a quiz on that day's material before coming to lab.

All students are required to actively participate in laboratory experiments and dissections. Students who simply observe the work of others will not receive credit for that laboratory assignment.


METHOD OF PRESENTATION:

Laboratory experiments and dissections will be mainly student participation, with some instructor demon­strations.  Discussions of material covered in lab will precede or follow the lab topics.  Films and other audio‑visual materials may be used.

METHOD OF EVALUATION:

Overall course grade:  Lecture 60%, lab 40%

Lab:                  3 major practical exams ‑ 20% each

                        8 or more quizzes ‑ 20% of lab

                        4 or more lab reports ‑ 20% of lab

ATTENDANCE POLICY:

Laboratory attendance is mandatory for all students. Individual conflicts with this policy are to be discussed with the lab instructor. Missed lab reports and lab quizzes will be counted as zeros in figuring the lab grade. No more than two lab grades may be dropped, and then only at the discretion of the lab instructor. If a student misses more than three lab periods in the semester, that student will be strongly urged to drop the course, as he/she will likely fail.


IF YOU HAVE DIFFICULTIES:

First see or call your instructor. If you are unable to resolve the prob­lem, contact the divisional secretary at your campus. The Division of Mathematics and Natural Sciences office phone numbers are 972-548‑6880 at Central Campus, 972-881‑5880 at Spring Creek Campus, and 972-377­­-1580 at Preston Ridge Campus. The Dean of the division is Dr. Cameron Neal.  His office is located in F135 at the Spring Creek Campus.

We will all be happy to assist you.

AMERICAN DISABILITIES ACT STATEMENT

It is the policy of Collin County Community College to provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals who are students with disabilities.  This college will adhere to all applicable Federal, State and local laws, regulations and guidelines with respect to providing reasonable accommodations as required to afford equal educational opportunity.  It is the student's responsibility to contact the faculty member and/or the Services for Students with Disabilities at 881-5950 in a timely manner to arrange for appropriate accommodations.


ACADEMIC ETHICS :

The college may initiate disciplinary proceedings against a student accused of scholastic dishonesty. Scholastic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, statements, acts, or omissions related to applications for enrollment or the award of a degree, and/or the submission of material's as one's own work that is not one's own.
Scholastic dishonesty may involve one or more of the following acts: cheating, plagiarism, collusion, and/or falsifying academic records.

Cheatiing is willful giving or receiving of information in an unauthorized manner during an examination, illicitily obtaining examination questions in advance, using someone else's work for assignments as if it were one's own, copying computer disks or files, and any other dishonest means of attempting to fulfill the requirements of a course.

Plagiarism is the use of the author's words or ideas as if they were one's own without giving credit to the source, including but not limited to, failure to acknowledge a direct quotation.

Contact Barbara Money, Dean of Students, at 972.881.5771 for the student disciplinary process and procedures or consult the CCCCD Student handbook.
