Welcome!
To BIO 251 ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1 course. A human anatomy and physiology course dealing with the fundamentals of
cellular Anatomy, physiology, morphology, and function of the major organ systems, including the muscular, skeletal, and
integumentary systems.
I. University Course Catalog Description
This is the first part of a two-semester Anatomy and physiology course. It is designed to teach the basic structures and
fundamentals of anatomy. The student will be required to apply the knowledge acquired here to the other course
sections.
II. Course Overview
Please respond to the following question. If No, skip to Section IV
This course fulfills the following General Education (Pathways) Requirements: ☒ Yes ☐ No
Required Common Core:
☐ English Composition I or II
☐ Mathematics and Quantitative Reasoning
☐ Life and Physical Sciences
Flexible Common Core:
☐ World Cultures and Global Studies
☐ US Experiences in Its Diversity
☐ Creative Expression
☐ Individual and Society
☒ Scientific World
☐ Additional Flexible Common Core
College Option:
☐ Socio-cultural
☐ Humanities
☐ Natural Sciences & Mathematics
☐ Social and Behavioral Sciences
III. Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs)
Since this course is the first part of a two-semester course, the main thrust of this part is to introduce the student to the
basics of the course.
Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:
1. Understand the basic differences and relationship between the Anatomy and Physiology of the human body .
2. Understand the chemical, cellular, and tissue levels of the human body.
3. Describe the different components of the three organ systems: integumentary, skeletal, and muscular systems.
4. Relate form or structure to the functions in these organ systems
