|
To learn the anatomic components of the abdomen and pelvis and to understand
their regional and systems relationships.
To understand the physiology of the respiratory,
digestive, and urinary organ systems and how they function to maintain
homeostasis.
To understand the hormonal control of reproduction and the processes
of gamete formation, fertilization, gestation, parturition, and early
post-natal physiology.
To learn how to use the Internet as a tool for gathering information.
|
To identify selected structures of the digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems through
examination of models and specimens and by dissection.
To achieve practical dexterity in dissection and keenness of observation.
To understand how the cardiovascular, respiratory, and urinary systems function in
maintaining homeostasis.
To appreciate how to design experiments to test physiologic phenomena, to learn
how to be organized in performing the experiments, to collect data accurately,
and to prepare a detailed report of the exercise.
To learn how to use the Internet as a tool for augmenting knowledge learned in
the laboratory exercises.
Although not required when taking the A&P 3 lecture course (BIO 4163), the
data acquired during hands-on dissection and observation, and physiologic experimentation
will facilitate the student’s comprehension of the lecture material.
|
Class lectures based upon the distributed outlines. This material may,
from time to time, be augmented by assigned readings, Internet searches,
or video presentations.
Exams will be based on the lecture presentations and any other assigned material.
|
Examination of anatomic and histologic material. The student will
be responsible for being able to identify items specified in the laboratory guide handout.
Material may be added to or deleted from this list as the instructor deems necessary.
Physiology exercises will be performed by the students carefully following the
protocols within the laboratory guide. Any deviations from the prescribed procedures
will be explained at the beginning of the laboratory session. On occasion, the student
may have to prepare a written report for the laboratory exercise.
Laboratory exercise content may be augmented by assigned readings, Internet searches,
or video presentations.
The quizzes used to assess the students’ knowledge may use specimens or illustrations.
|
|
Two examinations and a good attendance record, as specified on
the fine print page.
|
The students must read the laboratory exercises prior to the session.
Two laboratory quizzes, with a good attendance and participation record.
