11 courses with the subject BIOX, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
BIOX 110:Human Anatomy & Physiology I
This course examines the human body with emphasis on structure and function of the skeletal, muscular, endocrine and nervous systems. It investigates each system from the molecular, cellular, and systemic levels. Human anatomy structures, physiology, and biochemistry are studied systematically in this lecture course. It is part of a two-semester sequence that follows the recommendations of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society.

Laboratory sessions will provide students with a virtual “hands-on” learning opportunity to help conceptualize content discussed in lecture course. During lab, students will work on virtual labs to examine and dissect organs and/or anatomical models, use a virtual microscope, perform basic physiological experiments, and examine cadaver specimens virtually. While some lab sessions will focus mainly on the anatomy of the current system, most laboratory sessions will involve virtual physiological experiments to provide students with greater insight into the physiology of the current system. Topics covered are the cell and cells along with the skeletal, muscular, endocrine and nervous systems.

This survey course assists students in understanding the basic and unifying principles of life. Students focus on a wide variety of topics including structure and function, organization, diversity, biochemistry, evolution, behavior, ecology, and population dynamics.
The objective of this course is to gain an understanding of the cellular, molecular and genetic basis of life. Students will be introduced to the physical and chemical principles involved in biological processes, the microscopic world of the cell, regulation of gene expression and the laws that govern inheritance.
This laboratory will explore the organization of life, understanding the scientific method, biochemistry, immunology, microscopy, anatomy, and the development of living organisms, and the transmission of traits. You will learn how to evaluate the information you read or hear to be certain it is scientifically “sound” and how to find reliable sources. You’ll answer questions like “What information could you use in your daily life for managing your nutrition, exercise, seeing a genetic counselor, visiting a doctor?”
In this course students will apply the principles learned in Biology I to the structure and function of organisms. Physiological processes that will be examined include nutrition, gas exchange, transport and regulation of body fluids, chemical and nervous control, and reproduction.

This course examines microorganisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, with an emphasis on microorganisms responsible for human disease. Topics presented include mechanisms of pathogenicity, microbial growth, classification of microorganisms, principles of disease and epidemiology, immunology, and therapeutic agents used in clinical practice to combat infectious diseases. Focuses are on the structure of prokaryotic and eukaryotic microorganisms, host-microbe interactions, immunity, and human infectious diseases.
This laboratory course focuses on the observation of laboratory safety rules; aseptic techniques for handling and culturing live microorganisms; staining; use of the microscope and other laboratory equipment. Processes involved in transformation, isolating, and identifying microorganisms along with methods used in the clinical laboratory for assessing antibiotic sensitivity and resistance in bacterial species will be explored.
