Suffolk County Community College
College Course Syllabus for BIO132
I. Course Title:
Anatomy and Physiology II
II. Catalog Description:
Basic principles of the structure and function of the human body are discussed in depth for each of the organ systems. Physiology is presented from both a biochemical and organismal point of view. Basic understanding of chemistry, physics and mathematics is introduced where useful and necessary for understanding these biological phenomena. Special attention is given to the application of these principles and concepts to health-related areas. A 2-semester sequence (3 hrs. lecture, 3 hrs. laboratory)
III. Course Goals:
Students will understand the basic scientific structure and function of the human cardiovascular, lymphatic, digestive, respiratory, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems at the cellular, histological, organ, and systemic levels.
IV. Outcome Behaviors:
The students will be able to demonstrate their knowledge of the material covered through written and practical exams, discussions and reports. Upon completion of this course students should be able to:
A. Apply the scientific method,
1. by designing experiments to test formulated hypotheses,
2. by solving problems with the correct use of appropriate scientific
notation and equipment,
3. by quantifying (observing, describing, measuring, and calculating)
various empirical phenomena,
4. and by logically reaching valid conclusions based on these data through
critical analysis and interpretation.
B. Explain the relationship between structure and function at each level of
organization of the body for the cardiovascular, lymphatic, digestive, respiratory, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems.
C. Identify, locate and classify various anatomical structures at the cellular,
histological, organ and systemic levels of organization for the cardiovascular, lymphatic, digestive, respiratory, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems.
D. Describe and explain selected physiological processes at the cellular,
histological, organ and systemic levels of organization of cardiovascular, lymphatic, digestive, respiratory, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems, the physiology of nonspecific defense and immunity, and the homeostatic principles of electrolyte, fluid and acid base balance.
E. Use correct and appropriate anatomical and directional terminology and
descriptions as well as scientific terminology in general as they apply to the cardiovascular, lymphatic, digestive, respiratory, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems.
F. Identify and explain how selected pathologic conditions apply to the normal
functions of the topic being studied.
