BI 232 Human Anatomy & Physiology

The second term of an introduction to the structure and function of the human body. Benefits students in the health professions and physical education, but is valuable to others interested in the anatomy and physiology of the body. Focuses on the nervous system, endocrine system, and cardiovascular system. Includes a laboratory component.

Prerequisite

Prerequisite: BI 231 Human Anatomy and Physiology with a grade of C or better. Students who are currently enrolled in BI 231 or BI 232 will be allowed to register for the next sequence course (BI 232 or BI 233) before priority registration for continuing students. Current BI 231 and BI 232 faculty will announce the day, time and restrictions for this special registration day. Students will be permitted to register for only the Anatomy and Physiology class at this time. All holds on student accounts must be resolved prior to this registration day. Students must earn a grade of CΝ or better in BI 231 or BI 232 to move to the next sequence course. The week after grades are submitted, students who earned less than a CΝ in BI 232 or BI 233 will be dropped from the pre-registered sequence course.
