HSC 113

The principles of human anatomy and physiology are the focus of this course. Selected organ systems are examined in detail with emphasis on the relationship between anatomy and physiology. The cell biology and histology including the chemical processes that occur in cells will be included. The relationship between structure and function will be discussed and concepts such as pathophysiology and homeostasis will be introduced with each system. This course builds on basic knowledge from biology (grade 12) and chemistry (grade11). The course will use both lecture and laboratory sessions to enhance the learning outcomes associated with the course content. -- Prerequisite -- Enrolment in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program; HSC 111 -- Corequisite -- None. -- Pre or Corequisite -- None.
