This course provides each student with a basic biological foundation and understanding of human anatomy and physiology.
Emphasis is placed on the interrelationships of organ systems and the integration of concepts from various areas of study. The
course includes both a mandatory laboratory and lecture. General biological science 1 and Anatomy 2A are official prerequisites for this course. Although chemistry classes are not official prerequisites, they are highly recommended prior to taking
Anatomy 2B. Throughout this spring semester, our focus will be concentrated on complete mastery and integration of our
understanding of how the human body maintains systemic (physiological and fluid electrolyte) balance through monitoring of the
various organ systems (nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive) and
maintenance of the dynamic balance that must exist between each in order to maintain proper function. Due to the depth and
nature of the content of this course, there will likely be times when you may be tempted to skip over or avoid covering
everything you are responsible for learning. All of the information covered in this required course will form the foundation
for what is to come in your program of choice and the depth and quantity of material being covered does not excuse you
from reading, studying, and developing a long-term understanding of each portion. Your understanding of all concepts,
vocabulary, and protocols presented in the assigned chapters of your text, during lab, and by your lab manual are subject to
evaluation at any time the instructor deems necessary. This is a challenging course that requires a great deal of commitment
throughout the entire semester. Being prepared for each class by reading the assigned chapters and actively participating in
class activities are essential for success. Office hours (and any added study sessions) on the days listed above (or during
times added by your instructor to provide extra opportunities for discussing and mastering of course content), are scheduled
for the purpose of meeting with students about course topics. So, do not hesitate to make use of them regularly and/or when
needed.
By the end of the course, a successful student will have been taught to understand and discuss:




Regulation, Integration, and Control
Chapters 11–14, which will give them the knowledge to answer questions about the nervous system’s ability to control
the systems of the body and perpetually maintain widespread regulation and balance between the organ systems within
the body .
Fluids, Gas Exchange and Transport
Chapters 15–18, which will provide students with the opportunity to examine the endocrine and cardiovascular
system’s principal means of transport for materials needed to support the human body, regulate its internal biochemical
environment, and provide protection and homeostatic balance.
Energy, Maintenance, and Environmental Exchange
Chapters 19–22, enabling students to discover the interaction between the respiratory and urinary body systems and the
outside environment for the exchange of gases, the capture of energy, the release of waste, and the overall maintenance
of the internal systems that regulate the exchange. The explanations and illustrations are particularly focused on how
structure relates to function.
Human Development and the Continuity of Life
Chapters 23-25, which will permit students to explore the interaction between the digestive system and the outside
environment for the exchange of materials, the capture of energy and the transport and delivery of nutrients for energy
production within the other body systems as well as to examine the male and female reproductive systems, describe the
process of human development and the different stages of pregnancy, and introduce, on an introductory level, the
possible mechanisms of inheritance.
Required Text: R.C.C. Life Science Dept., Anatomy and Physiology 2B Laboratory Manual, 1st Ed.
M. Cryder, My Anatomy Mentor: 2B (https://www.grtep.com/index.cfm/core/enroll/course)
Recommended Text: E. Marieb et, al., Human Anatomy and Physiology, 7th ed. ($3.00-$7.00)

Recommended Items: (1) Laptop and access to a printer; (1) Laboratory coat; (1) scientific calculator; (1) 1GB Flash drive (1 GB);
multi-colored pens/highlighters; 1 box surgical gloves.
Lab Materials: In order to better comprehend the arrangement of tissues in living organisms, we will begin dissecting a cat
in the later portions of the class (see the Tentative Schedule below for approximate dates). As a student, you will need to
provide your own required surgical latex, vinyl, or nitrile gloves available at the RCC bookstore, drug stores, on-line, and
other locations. You may want to coordinate with your lab partners to purchase gloves in bulk at a lower cost. A lab coat of
some kind (an old long-sleeved shirt works as well as a professional lab coat) is also recommended but not required.
Grade: Your grade will be based on your overall percentage of the following point totals. Lecture grades and lab grades will be
weighted according to a 60% (lecture) to 40% (lab) distribution respectively.
Lecture: (4) 100-125 point Lecture Exams:
450 pts.
(1) 200 point Cumulative Final:
200 pts.
Class Participation:
200 pts.
Lab: (4) 100- 150 point Lab Practicums:
500 pts.
(1) 50 point Lab Practicum:
50 pts.
Quizzes (10 or more): 5 to 25 pts. each
Total Available Points: ~ 1500 pts.
Exams and Quizzes: EXAMS and QUIZZES CANNOT BE MADE UP. Lab exams in particular take several hours to
set up, so there are both practical and philosophical reasons for this policy. Exceptions may be made in the case of
extreme circumstances beyond the control of the student. Unless physically incapable of doing so, you are responsible for
notifying the instructor within 24 hours of missing an exam or quiz. The student may be required to provide substantiating
documentation at the discretion of the instructor. Each lecture exam will include a written essay worth 15-20% of the
entire exam score.
Professionalism and Conduct: Students are expected to participate during the lecture and lab periods, which means
following instructions and actively engaging in any assignments. You are also expected to show consideration and respect
for the instructor, your peers, and the course equipment. Cleaning up your lab area and properly storing lab equipment is
your responsibility. Side conversations while I am addressing the class are distracting, disrespectful, and inappropriate.
Use of cell phones and other personal electronic devices during lecture or lab is also distracting and unacceptable; you
may use them during breaks but turn them off during class. Instruct relatives and friends to contact campus security in the
event of an emergency; security personnel will find and inform you of any personal emergency. Point deductions may be
incurred for cell phone use and other specified infractions at the discretion of the instructor. You are expected to behave in
accordance with the Student Code of Conduct as outlined in your RCC Student Handbook at all times. I reserve the right
to dismiss anyone from class at any time whose behavior is detrimental to the learning environment.
Attendance and Participation: Attendance is mandatory; you must be present and on time to each class session.
Participation points will be awarded during each lecture. You must participate in group discussions and activities to be
awarded points for participating! Participation points CANNOT be made up, but they will not be counted against you if
your absence is excused. Participation points may be lost as a means of enforcing the student conduct code. If your
behavior is disruptive (see Professionalism and Conduct above) or you are late to class, participation points will be deducted
from that day’s total. If you miss more than 6 hours of either lab or lecture, you may be dropped from the class. Students
who choose not to continue with the course are responsible for dropping the course via Web Advisor or the admissions
office; failure to do so may result in an F.
Academic Honesty: You are expected to adhere to RCC policies on academic honesty at all times. Anyone caught
cheating or plagiarizing on any work for this class will be issued a 0 for the assignment and the incident will be
immediately reported to the Dean of Instruction. Please see the link on the class website for RCC definitions of academic
dishonesty.
Extra Credit Opportunities: There will be various opportunities to put in some additional effort and obtain additional points
throughout the term that will be added to one specific category of your grade. Each will be directly related to the specific
material being covered at that particular point in the term and each student will have one single and equal chance to do
whatever the assignment(s) is asking for and to submit it by a certain date in order to obtain the points that are described by
your instructor. If you miss the class lecture or individual posting on our course website, then it is up to you to ask your peers
and/or instructor in order to capitalize on this rare gift.
Disability Accommodations: If you have a documented physical, psychiatric/emotional, medical, or learning disability
that may impact your ability to carry out assigned course work, I urge you to contact the staff of the Disability Resource
Center at 222-8060. The DRC will review your concerns and determine, with you, what accommodations are necessary
and appropriate. All information and documentation is confidential.
