Course Description: (From COC catalog) Prerequisite: Biol Sci 107 with a grade of “C” or
better. Units: 4.00 - UC:CSU 54.00 hours lecture, 54.00 hours lab. Introduces the structure and
function of the human body. UC credit limitation: BIOSCI-201, 202 and 204, 205, 250
combined; maximum credit 8 units.
Student Learning Outcome (Lecture): Identify, describe, and draw the anatomical structures
(organs, tissues, cells, cell products), for the integumentary system, skeletal system, the muscular
system, and the nervous system, and evaluate the functions of each, describing the physiological
mechanism by which each works to maintain health and homeostasis.
Student Learning Outcome (Lab): Name, identify and evaluate the functions of pertinent
anatomical structures (organs, tissues, cells, cell products) for each organ system studied.
Important Information Regarding Biology Degree
http://www.canyons.edu/Divisions/MathSci/Degrees/BiologicalSciences.PDF
Many students do not realize that they qualify for an A.S. degree in Biology from College of the
Canyons. This is typically due to the student never being informed that they have completed the
courses required for the degree. Please check the link above to see if you qualify or may soon
qualify for the Biology A.S. degree. Obtaining your A.S. degree may provide you with greater
transfer opportunities to a university.

Required Materials:
• Saladin, K.S. Anatomy and Physiology: The Unity of Form and Function, 6th ed.
McGraw Hill, 2012
• Sarikas, S.N. Laboratory Investigations in Anatomy and Physiology, 2nd ed.
Pearson Benjamin Cummings, 2010
• Gloves for dissection
Recommended Materials:
• Gilbert, S.G. Pictorial Anatomy of the Cat, Rev. 76. Hopkins F
• Leboffe, M.J. Photographic Atlas of Histology, 2nd ed. Morton, 2013
Lecture Exam: There will be four lecture exams. They will not be cumulative. Exams will
consist of 30 multiple choice, true/false questions worth 2 points each for a total of 60 points 5
short answer questions worth 4 points each for a total of 20 points and 4 written answer
questions worth variable points that will bring the total to 100 points per exam. A scantron will
be needed for the exams. There will be no make ups for the exams unless there is evidence of
an extreme hardship (i.e. hospitalization, death in the family)! In the event a make-up is
granted, the exam may vary from the one given in class.
Final Exam: There will be a cumulative final exam at the end of the semester. The final will
consist of 75 multiple choice, true/false, fill in questions worth 2 points each and 5 written
answer questions worth 10 points each for a total of 200 points. A scantron will be needed for the
final. If the score on the final is higher than the lowest lecture exam score, the score on the final
will be used to replace that lecture score. There will be no make ups for the final! See front.
Lab Practicals: Lab practicals will consist of short answer fill-in questions based on the
laboratory assignments performed. The questions will be based on slides, pictures, models, or
preserved specimens. There are no make ups for the lab practicals! See front.
Lab Reports: Lab reports will be a written description of your lab work during a specific unit. In
the report you should describe in detail the work performed in lab. You should start by stating
the purpose of the unit and follow with your description. Typed, 12 Times New Roman font.
Attendance/Participation: You are expected to attend every lecture and lab! If you need to
miss a lecture for any reason, please let me know as soon as possible. You will still be
responsible for all materials covered in lecture during your absence. After three unexcused
absences you may be dropped from the class. Participation will consist of the student
answering questions during lecture and participating in discussions.
Academic Dishonesty: Any form of academic dishonesty (cheating, plagiarism, etc.) will NOT
be tolerated! Any student that is found being academically dishonest will be subject to the
highest level of discipline! This may result in a zero on the assignment, an “F” in the course
and/or dismissal from the college. See the current COC class catalog for further clarification.
Withdrawal Policy: If a student elects to withdraw from the lecture/lab, it is their responsibility
to do so. Deadline to drop without a W: 2/21/14, with a W 5/9/14. Again, you are responsible
for withdrawing from the class.

Students with Disabilities: Any student who feels s/he may need an accommodation
based on the impact of a disability should contact me privately to discuss your
specific needs. Please contact the Disabled Students Programs and Services office at
(661) 362-3341 in room SCOH 103 to coordinate reasonable accommodations for
students with documented disabilities.
Policy on Electronic Devices: During the lecture, all electronic devices are to be shut off. An
exception is made for laptops and tablets so that the students may view the lecture notes. If it is
discovered that the students are not viewing lecture related material, that exception will no
longer be valid. During the lab I encourage the use of any and all technologies to help you
further your understanding of the material presented. That includes smartphones, iPods, iPads,
laptops and the like. Electronic devices are not allowed during any type of assessment.
MESA: MESA is a program that supports students to excel in math, engineering, and the
sciences. MESA is based on a rigorous program that builds academic skills and encourages
cooperative solving. There is access to technology, academic advisement, and other support
services available. For more information, please contact the MESA Program Director in ALLB114 or call (661) 362-3448.
TLC: For tutoring in English, Math, Science, and other subjects on a walk-in basis, please visit
the state-of-the-art TLC. Call for hours of operation at 661-362-3351.
How to succeed in this class: Study! Review the notes thoroughly. Read the book to fill any
gaps that may exist in your notes. In the lab, review the specimens until you are confident you
can identify on a practical. Review pictures, diagrams, online resources, etc. Most important,
ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE THEM! I am here to help you.
