COURSE DESCRIPTION: This is the laboratory component to accompany BIOS 2320. Laboratory activities
include the structure and function of the circulatory, respiratory, digestive, excretory, endocrines and
reproductive systems. Students registering for the course must also register for BIOS 2320, which is the
laboratory component of BIOS 2320.
COURSE PREREQUISITE (S): College-level reading, writing, and math proficiency; BIOS 2310; CHEM
1010, CHEM 1211 or CHEM 1212
Co-requisite(s): BIOS 2320
RATIONALE: This course completes a two-quarter sequence that begins with BIOS 2310. It is appropriate for
those health career programs requiring two quarters of biology credit. It is also designed to be comparable to
the typical two-semester laboratory course in a university, and provides transfer credit for the student whose
academic goals extend beyond Metropolitan Community College programs.

TITLE: Human Anatomy & Physiology II
PREFIX/NO: BIOS 2320
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
Three general themes will be emphasized throughout the quarter. The student will be expected to:
1
Explain how the design of a body structure makes its function possible or more efficient.
2.
Explain how the various body systems are interrelated in structure and in function.
3.
Explain how the body's structures help maintain a constant internal environment.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS/EVALUATION:
Each instructor develops a testing/grading plan, described in the syllabus for his/her class section. That plan
should include the expectation that students demonstrate thinking skills beyond memorization of facts:
comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.
The student should be expected to demonstrate these abilities, at least in part, in writing. Testing should also be
based, in part, on laboratory methods and materials.
