plant species encountered. Students will<br />
collect plants and make museum-quality<br />
herbarium mounts. (3 lecture hours/3 lab<br />
hours) (4 semester hours) Fall<br />
Bi 128—Bird Study<br />
Provides an opportunity to learn to<br />
recognize the many species of birds<br />
represented in the college’s study skin<br />
collection. Emphasis is placed on<br />
diagnostic characteristics useful in feld<br />
identifcation. This course introduces<br />
students to the fundamentals of avian<br />
taxonomy and includes a survey of the<br />
museum collection plus a curatorial<br />
project that teaches students how to use<br />
a collection to do research. (2 lecture<br />
hours/3 lab hours) (3 semester hours)<br />
Spring<br />
Bi 130—Anatomy and Physiology i<br />
An in-depth survey of the scientifc<br />
principles involved in the study of human<br />
anatomy and physiology. Pertinent<br />
concepts of chemistry, physics, and<br />
biology are reviewed, with emphasis<br />
on their application to human form<br />
and function. Topics include cytology,<br />
histology, and the integumentary,<br />
skeletomuscular, and neurological<br />
systems. The laboratory consists of an<br />
organized study of the body, including<br />
some dissection, the use of human and<br />
other mammalian organs and anatomical<br />
models, and the use of appropriate<br />
anatomy and physiology software.<br />
Evaluation is based on testing and<br />
laboratory work. NOTE: Repeat of BI<br />
205. Prerequisite: Either a High School<br />
Regents level approved Science (such as<br />
Living Environment and Chemistry) with<br />
a course grade of 75 or better completed<br />
within 5 years of beginning Anatomy &<br />
Physiology, any college level Biology<br />
or Chemistry Lab Science with a course<br />
grade of C or better within the last 10<br />
years, or holding a license in Health felds<br />
(such as LPN, Paramedic/EMT, MT, OT,<br />

PT, Dietician, etc.). (3 lecture hours/3 lab<br />
hours) (4 semester hours) Fall/Spring<br />
Bi 131—Anatomy and Physiology ii<br />
Emphasizes more advanced physiological<br />
concepts and homeostasis. Laboratory<br />
topics involve some in-depth dissection of<br />
specifc organs and organ systems along<br />
with extensive use of anatomical models<br />
and the use of anatomy and physiology<br />
software. Evaluation is based on testing<br />
and laboratory work. NOTE: Repeat of<br />
BI 206. Prerequisite: BI 130. (3 lecture<br />
hours/3 lab hours) (4 semester hours)<br />
Fall/Spring<br />
Bi 134—myology & Kinesiology i<br />
This course offers an in-depth look<br />
at the human muscular system. The<br />
major muscles of the upper and lower<br />
extremities will be discussed, including<br />
their origin, insertion, and functions.<br />
Postural considerations, effective positions<br />
for working these muscles, and stretch<br />
and slack will be presented. Joints<br />
structure and function, nerve innervation,<br />
acupuncture points, and meridian<br />
pathways of these involved muscles will<br />
also be reviewed. (2 lecture hours/3 lab<br />
hours) (3 semester hours) Fall<br />
Bi 135—myology & Kinesiology ii<br />
This course is a continuation of Myology<br />
& Kinesiology I, but will examine<br />
different muscle groups. Muscles of the<br />
axial skeleton will be discussed, including<br />
their origins, insertions, functions<br />
and appropriate positions for working<br />
them. Relevant references to postural<br />
considerations, meridian pathways and<br />
acupuncture points will also be introduced.<br />
In addition to the skeletal muscles, this<br />
course will cover the anatomy of cardiac<br />
and smooth muscles and their role in the<br />
body. Prerequisite: BI 134 with a grade of<br />
C or better. (3 lecture hours/3 lab hours)<br />
(4 semester hours) Spring<br />
