      • 03 – Natural Science
    This course is the second semester of a two-semester lab-science course intended for students pursuing careers in fitness and allied health fields. Interrelationships between form and function at the gross and microscopic levels are studied using a body systems approach. Homeostasis is an integrating theme throughout this course. Content topics include immunity, metabolism, fluid balance, development, and the cardiovascular, hematopoietic, respiratory, lymphatic, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. Dissection of individual organs and whole organisms may be included. Meets MnTC Goal 3L. Prerequisite: BIOL 2000 with a grade of C or better
  2. Course Effective Dates: 8/1/02 – Present
  3. Outline of Major Content Areas
    1. Basic medical and scientific terminology a. Regional and directional terms pertaining to the human body b. Cell physiology c. Body organization
    2. Homeostasis. Understand how the organs and organ systems of the body act together to maintain homeostasis
    3. Physiological and anatomical study of a. Immune system b. Metabolism c. Fluid balance d. Development e. Cardiovascular system f. Hematopoietic system g. Respiratory system h. Lymphatic system i. Digestive system J. Urinary system k. Reproductive system
  4. Learning Outcomes
    1. Know the anatomical structure of the human body,understand the mechanisms of metabolism and the role each unit plays in the overall function of the human body.
    2. Identify cells, tissues, organs, organ systems and their interactions.
    3. Identify the structure of the human body on models, charts and diagrams and specimen.
    4. Demonstrate dissection skills
    5. Critically evaluate material presented in class and by the media as it relates to the functioning of the human body.
    6. Demonstrate effective oral and written skill.
  5. Minnesota Transfer Curriculum Goal Area(s) and Competencies
      Goal 03 — Natural Science
      • Demonstrate understanding of scientific theories.
      • Formulate and test hypotheses by performing laboratory, simulation, or field experiments in at least two of the natural science disciplines. One of these experimental components should develop, in greater depth, students' laboratory experience in the collection of data, its statistical and graphical analysis, and an appreciation of its sources of error and uncertainty.
      • Communicate their experimental findings, analyses, and interpretations both orally and in writing.
      • Evaluate societal issues from a natural science perspective, ask questions about the evidence presented, and make informed judgments about science-related topics and policies.
