STUDENT OUTCOMES
Human Anatomy and Physiology II: Laboratory
Core Abilities
Indicate the desirable results that can be expected to occur
from the course experience. These are usually
expressed in measurable and observable terms.
1. Correlate qualitative and quantitative information about the constituents of blood via
microscopic examination. (Written Report, Instructor Observation, Group Activity,
Laboratory Practicum)
2. Generate a hematology slip following the performance of a hematocrit and a
differential white blood cell count from a blood smear stained with Wright’s stain. (Written
Report, Instructor Observation, Laboratory Report, Laboratory Practicum)
3. Recognize the ABO blood type and Rh factor from an agglutination test and describe
the frequencies of blood types among the various ethnic populations applying genetic
concepts. (Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Report,
Laboratory Practicum)
4. Identify superficial and deep structures of the heart, including the conduction system,
on various heart models, diagrams, and by sheep heart dissection. (Instructor
Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Report, Laboratory Practicum)
5. Describe and demonstrate patterns of blood circulation throughout the human body,
including systemic, pulmonary, cerebral, coronary, hepatic portal, and fetal circulations on
models, diagrams and dissected cat specimens. (Instructor Observation, Oral
Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Practicum)
6. Measure blood pressure and discuss its functional interrelationships with pulse
pressure, mean arterial blood pressure, cardiac output, peripheral resistance and
hemodynamics. (Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory
Practicum)
7. Identify the gross and microscopic anatomy of the lymphatic system, including pattern
of lymph circulation and both its encapsulated and non-encapsulated structures.
(Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Practicum)
8. Identify the gross and microscopic anatomy of the respiratory tract and related organs.
(Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Practicum)
9. Measure pulmonary air volumes and capacities using a spirometer. (Written Report,
Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Report, Laboratory
Practicum)
10. Assess problems dealing with metabolic/respiratory acidosis and alkalosis. (Written
Report, Instructor Observation, Group Activity, Laboratory Report, Laboratory Practicum)
11. Describe mechanisms of gas exchange in the lungs and tissues as well as gas
transport in the blood. (Written Report, Instructor Observation, Group Activity, Laboratory
Report, Laboratory Practicum)
12. Identify the gross and microscopic anatomy of the GI tract and the accessory organs
of digestion, including the mesenteries. (Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group
Activity, Laboratory Practicum)
13. Perform and evaluate digestive chemistry experiments and discuss the catabolism
and anabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. (Written Report, Oral
Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Report, Laboratory Practicum)
14. Identify the gross and microscopic anatomy of the urinary tract, including detailed

histology of the nephron and its juxtaglomerular apparatus. (Instructor Observation, Oral
Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Practicum)
15. Assess results following performance of a urinalysis, which includes gross
examination, specific gravity, biochemical analysis, and microscopic examination.
(Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Report, Laboratory
Practicum)
16. Interrelate concepts of buffer systems, their roles in acid/base balance, regulation of
volume and chemical composition of body fluids, and the roles of the respiratory and
urinary systems following measurement of pH of biological and nutritional fluids.
(Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Practicum)
17. Identify gross and microscopic anatomy of the male and female reproductive tracts
and external genitalia, including an in depth examination of reproductive cell division
(meiosis, gametogenesis, folliculogenesis) and describe the functions of these structures.
(Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group Activity, Laboratory Report, Laboratory
Practicum)
18. Identify the gross and microscopic anatomy of the endocrine system, including the
major endocrine organs, with emphasis on interrelating which target tissues are regulated
by the secretions of these organs. (Instructor Observation, Oral Presentation, Group
Activity, Laboratory Practicum)

METHODS AND TOOLS FOR ASSESSMENT:
A. Written Report: Description of activity or concept in an accurate, concise fashion using appropriate, accepted
scientific writing format.
B. Instructor Observation: Instructor visually assesses either informally or formally (with a checklist) whether the
student has successfully achieved the desirable outcome.
C. Oral Presentation: Presentation of subject concepts through verbal explanation from students either as
individuals or as groups.
D. Group Activity: Examination of subject concepts or questions through a formalized group activity requiring active
participation of all group members.
E. Laboratory Report: Presentation of laboratory experiment results in a brief written form including laboratory
objectives and conclusion.
F. Laboratory Practicum: Use of student demonstration of techniques and student knowledge of anatomical
structures, physiological processes, scientific equipment, and laboratory materials as a means of assessment.
