This course is designed to assist the student in developing a basic understanding of the normal structure and function of the body.
Meets MnTC goal area(s) 3 & 10 This is an introductory level course where students study fundamental concepts of cell biology, the chemical and physical basis of life, concepts in genetics, evolution, and the impact that biological and genetic advances have on society and the biosphere. This course includes 3 lecture hours and 2 lab hours per week.
Meets MnTC Goal: 3 Principles of Nutrition provides an introduction to the basic concepts related to nutrients in foods and their metabolic functions. The course will also focus on methods for assessing nutritional status and dietary adequacy, as well as its applications to phases of the human life cycle. ntcmn.edu 218.333.6600
3/4 or BIOL2260 Anatomy & Physiology I
Meets MnTC goal area(s):3 This course is designed to increase the students understanding of the mechanisms involved in the normal functioning of the human body, with lesser emphasis regarding the effects of disease on that functioning. Focus is on the body defenses and interaction and integration of body processes. Upon completion of this course, students should have an enhanced knowledge and appreciation to the complexities of the human body by learning both the human anatomy of physiology for multiple organ systems and an understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie human physiology. This is a general education course for all students interested in better understanding of human physiology. This course includes lab-like activities and exercises. Prerequisite(s): BIOL2262 or Anatomy & Physiology II
Meets MnTC Goal area(s):3 This is designed as the first of a two-semester general human anatomy and physiology course series. The course offers a comprehensive overview of human anatomy and physiology, covering the structure of the human body from the cells, tissues, and individual organ systems to the integrated whole. Both lecture and laboratory components are required. Prerequisite(s): BIOL1004 or appropriate score on the science assessment
4. Mathematic/Logical Reasoning Goal: To increase students’ knowledge about mathematical and logical modes of thinking. This will enable students to appreciate the breadth of applications of mathematics, evaluate arguments, and detect fallacious reasoning.
