Includes anatomical terminology, cells, tissues, and the following systems: integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, and endocrine. Emphasis on homeostasis. This course is cross-listed as SCIT 1307. The student may register for either SCIT 1407 or SCIT 1307, but may receive credit for only one of the two. This course is intended for students seeking to complete an Applied Science Degree. (3 Lec., 3 Lab.)

Course Objectives Identify and describe the anatomy of the cell and the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous and endocrine systems; identify and describe epithelial, connective, muscle, and nerve tissue; and explain the physiology of the cells, tissues, and the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, and endocrine systems. Use appropriate anatomical and physiological terminology when discussing cells, tissues, and the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, andendocrine systems; and interpret the effect of the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, and endocrine systems on overall body homeostasis.

Laboratory Exams consist of fill-in-the-blank. There will NOT be a word bank. Open lab times are posted outside of the lab door. There are also models located at the circulation desk in the library. *Make – up Exams A comprehensive final will be given for lecture exam missed. If a laboratory practical is missed, you will receive a grade of ZERO for the exam. There are no make-up laboratory practicals. Final grade 720 – 800pts = 90 – 100% = A 640 – 719pts = 80 – 89% = B 560 – 639pts = 70 – 79% = C 480 – 559pts = 60 – 69% = D 0 - 479 = 0 - 59% = F Attendance Policy Attendance is mandatory for both class and lab. Students are expected to be on time and remain for the entire class/lab. There are no make-up classes for laboratory exercises that are missed. You cannot attend another laboratory with another instructor to make-up the work. It will be impossible to complete this course in a satisfactory manner if you have excessive absences and/or tardies. Academic Honesty Scholastic dishonesty is a violation of the Code of Student Conduct. Scholastic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, cheating on a test, plagiarism, and collusion. As a college student, you are considered a responsible adult. Your enrollment indicates acceptance of the DCCCD Code of Student Conduct published in the DCCCD Catalog at http://www1.dcccd.edu/cat0506/ss/code.cfm Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, cheating on tests, plagiarism and collusion. Cheating includes copying from another student’s test or homework paper, using materials not authorized, collaborating with or seeking aid from another student during a test, knowingly using, buying, selling, stealing, or soliciting the contents of an unadministered test, and substituting for another person to take a test. Plagiarism is the appropriating, buying, receiving as a gift, or obtaining by any means another’s work and the unacknowledged submission or incorporation of it in one’s own written work. Collusion is the unauthorized collaboration with another person in preparing written work for fulfillment of course requirements.
