Human Anatomy and Physiology I, II
(Biology 208/209)

This is a two-quarter sequence of courses. Biology 208 is taught winter quarter and is a prerequisite for Biology 209, which is taught spring quarter.

Prerequisites for Biology 208 (Human Anatomy and Physiology I):
            · The prerequisite for Biology 208 is a grade of C or better in Biology 160 (formerly called Biology 101) or Biology 201 or instructor permission, 

            · High school biology does not serve as a prerequisite for this course

            · Students planning to take Anatomy and Physiology I should take Biology 160 during fall quarter or earlier.
Prerequisite for Biology 209 (Human Anatomy and Physiology II):

            · The prerequisite for Biology 209 is a grade of C or better in Biology 208 (or instructor permission,)

 

The schedule for Anatomy and Physiology II, spring quarter, 2008 is as follows:

            · Lecture Section A meets 9:00 AM - 9:50 AM on M, Tu., W, Th. in room 317.

            · Lecture Section B meets 10 AM - 10:50 AM on M, Tu., W, and Th. in room 317.
                        Lab for both Sections A and B meets from 1 - 3:50 PM in room 315 one afternoon each week.
                        You are expected to attend the lab for which you have signed up.

If your lab is cancelled due to a no-class day, plan to attend another lab that week.
            Lab is Tuesday, Thursday or Friday afternoon.

            · Lecture Section 17 meets Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5:30 - 8:45 PM.  Labs are included within this schedule.

 

Required text and other materials for 2008:

· Anatomy and Physiology with Anatomy and Physiology Place CD, 3rd edition, 2007, by Elaine N. Marieb.  Benjamin Cummings, New York.

· InterActive Physiology 9 System Suite CD-ROM with the following programs: Muscular System, Nervous System I, Nervous System II, Cardiovascular System, Endocrine System, Respiratory System, Urinary System, Fluid, Electrolyte, & Acid/Base Balance and Digestive System.

· ADAM Interactive Anatomy CD-ROM and ADAM Interactive Anatomy 4 Student Lab Guide by Lafferty & Panella, Benjamin Cummings.

·· The items listed above are sold as a "bundle" at the College bookstore and will be used both quarters.

 

· H ITT transmitter. Buy this separately. There are two kinds of transmitters.  One is the infrared transmitter that we have been using for several years and the other is a radio frequency transmitter.  The radio transmitter costs more but it is easier to use and more accurate.  I’ll leave it up to you which one to buy; either will work for us. 

· 9-volt battery for your transmitter.  I know the 9-volt works for the infrared transmitters and I think it also works for the radio transmitters. I have emailed the company that makes these and will let you know for sure. 

 

· A box of colored pencils. 

· A red/blue colored pencil (these have red lead on one end and blue lead on the other (no eraser.) 

· Several regular pencils with clean erasers. 

· A flat folder for turning in lab assignments.

 

· Optional (but recommended by past students) is Cliffs Quick Review for Anatomy and Physiology or another Anatomy/Physiology outline series. Some students also like flash cards.


 

Day classes begin Monday, April 6, '08.  Be present at the first class or risk losing your seat in the classes; there are generally people on the wait lists.

There will be lab the first week.
