    Description
    A study of the structure of the systems of the human body with emphasis divided between gross anatomy and the cellular detail (histology) of tissues and their evolutionary developments and relationships with other organisms. Cats or other suitable and available specimens are used as dissection specimens in the laboratory along with selected human organs and tissue slides, including cadaver and computer demonstrations. The course meets the anatomy requirement for baccalaureate degrees in nursing, a variety of paramedical fields, including physical and occupational therapy, and exercise science majors.
