ANATOMY (ABIO 232 -- 4 Credit Hours)
Spring Semester 2012
Instructor:
Norris L. O’Dell, DMD, PhD
Office:
Room 111B -- norriso@usca.edu
Lecture Room:
Science Bldg. Room 200
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:
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: This course requires dissection of preserved
animals and organs (10% formalin or other
comparable preservative). If you are pregnant or think
you are pregnant, please consult your obstetrician as
he/she may not allow you to complete this laboratory;
therefore, you may need to take this course at a later
date. Also, exposure to formaldehyde has been linked
to cancer in rats, and formaldehyde interacts with
some contact lenses to produce an undesirable
reaction.
If you have a physical, psychological, and/or learning
disability which might affect your performance in this
class, please contact the Office of Disability Faculty
Responsibilities Services, 134 B&E, (803) 643-6816,
as soon as possible. The Disability Services Office
will determine appropriate accommodations based on
medical documentation.
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)

Additional Comments:
1. Read the assigned textbook and laboratory materials before class.
2. Bring laboratory manual to the laboratory sessions
3. 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.”
4. 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).
5. 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

(803)641-3609, as soon as possible. The Disability Services Office will
determine appropriate accommodations based on medical documentation.
7. 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.
8. There are no Extra Credit projects in this course.
9. Policy for Portable Electronic Devices: The use of any portable electronic
devices, including cell phones, pagers, MP3 players, iPods, etc., during class
is not allowed for any reason unless prior approval has been given to a
student from the instructor or unless required for the course. If you are
planning to have any of these devices in class, they must be turned off and
stowed away for the duration of the class period. If you use a portable
electronic device during a test, quiz, or other assessment, you are eligible to
receive a failing grade on that assignment.
