Room 111B -- norriso@usca.edu
Lecture Room:
H&SS Bldg. Room 116
Laboratory:
Science Bldg. Room 104
Textbook:

Pearson
Lab Manual:
HUMAN ANATOMY LAB MANUAL WITH RAT DISSECTIONS,
E. N. Marieb, Pearson
Lab Supplies:
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:
Lectures on human anatomy will be combined with
laboratory exercises that employ the human skeleton,
and the dissection of a cat in a study of the anatomy
of the human body.
Attendance Policy:
Attendance at lectures is expected and attendance and
participation in laboratory sessions are part of you overall
lab grade. Each unexcused absence from lab will result in
one point being deducted from the lab grade which counts
20% of the 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
