Pre-Health Sciences Biology 1 (BIOL 1125)
This course is part one of two biology courses in the Pre-Health Sciences Program. It provide an introduction to the study of anatomy and physiology of humans and reviews the major themes of anatomy and physiology from Biology 12; including cellular form and function, biochemistry and metabolism, genetics and heredity, and characteristics of tissues. This course subsequently studies a number of human systems in greater depth including the integumentary system, skeletal system, muscular system, nervous system, and endocrine system. This course will describe physiological functions that contribute to health and/or disease.
Pre-Health Sciences Biology 1 and 2 combine to give the equivalent of BIOL 1602 plus additional material.
