Human Biology

Prerequisites: biology and one other lab science.

Human Biology takes a hands–on approach to learning the structure and function of human body systems. The course aims to expand the student’s current knowledge of how the human body works by studying the major body systems leading to an understanding of how their daily activities affect their health now and in the future. Students will also relate how disease leads to loss of functioning in the systems. Labs include dissections of a number of major animal organs. Students will also have the opportunity to get American Red Cross First Aid and CPR certified upon successful completion of the First Aid unit.
