ANATOMY (ABIO 232 -- 4 Credit Hours)
Fall Semester 2010
Instructor:
Norris L. O’Dell, DMD, PhD
Office:
Room 111D -- norriso@usca.edu
Lecture Room:
Science Bldg. Room 327
Laboratory:
Science Bldg. Room 104
Textbook:
Human Anatomy, 6th Ed., Marieb, Wilhelm & Mallatt,
Pearson
Lab Manual:
HUMAN ANATOMY LAB MANUAL WITH RAT DISSECTIONS,
E. N. Marieb, Pearson
Lab Supplies:
All students should have a dissecting kit, and if you do
not wear eyeglasses, you should obtain protective
safety glasses. You will also need to purchase
disposable surgical gloves since you will be
handling preserved specimens. (Caution: Exposure
to formaldehyde has been linked to cancer in rats.
Also, formaldehyde interacts with some contact
lenses to produce an undesirable reaction.) If you
have special health considerations or conditions,
inform me so that we can seek further information
with regard to exposure to the laboratory
environment.
Course Description:
A survey of human anatomical structure.
Course Objective:
This course is designed to introduce students to the
anatomy of the human body through a study of cells,
tissues, organs and organ systems.
Course Content:
In this introductory course lectures on human
anatomy will be combined with laboratory exercises
that employ the human skeleton, various human
anatomic models, and the dissection of a rat.
Attendance Policy:
Attendance at lectures is expected and attendance
and participation in laboratory sessions are part of
your overall lab grade. Each unexcused absence
from lab will result in points being deducted from the
lab grade which counts 20% of the overall course
grade.
By the end of this course, the student should be able to describe the:
prototypical human cell
four primary tissues
major organs of the human body
major organ systems of the human body
Evaluation:
Four Lecture Examinations (20% each)

Endorse the following Honor Pledge on every exam: “On my honor as a
University of South Carolina at Aiken student, I have neither given nor received
unauthorized aid on the assignment/examination. To the best of my
knowledge, I am not in violation of academic honesty.”
No make-up quizzes will be given for the laboratory quizzes and no make-up
examinations will be given for the lecture examinations except under some extreme
situations (see Student Handbook).
If you have any questions, problems or other concerns that I might be able to help
you with, then please see me directly or arrange to see me through Ms. Cutsinger. I
consider it a privilege to teach, and will try to help you in any way that I can.

as possible.
The Disability Services Office will determine appropriate
accommodations based on medical documentation.
We will use the machine-graded Scantron 100 question sheets for all of the Lecture
Examinations. Please be sure that you have the Scantron Sheets and a #2 pencil on
the day of each scheduled quiz/examination. All other personal items will be left
in front of the lecture room during the exam. So, on the day of the exam,
please enter the room and bring all items except for a #2 pencil and your
answer sheet to the front of the room for temporary storage. Assigned seats
will be utilized for the exams.
There are no Extra Credit projects in this course.
