This is an elective biology course that focuses on body structures and their functions. Topics will include, but may not be limited to, anatomy, functions of the human body, injuries and illnesses. Lab exercises will include dissections and use of microscopes. This course may utilize animal dissection techniques as an instructional strategy. Students who conscientiously object to these exercises will participate in division-approved activities that provide comparable learning experiences. Students will be encouraged to apply to their own lives the updated and timely information presented in this class. There will be no SOL test upon completion of this course. Note: Students will not receive credit for both Biology II: Survey of Human Systems and Anatomy and Physiology.
