BIO-159 Cellular Basis of Human Physiology
This is the first course in the core curriculum
for Human Performance, Exercise Physiology and
Health Sciences majors. The course will prepare
students for the Human Anatomy and Physiology
sequence (BIO 224-225). Course topics will cover
fundamental concepts including biomolecule
structure and function, energy metabolism
(cellular respiration), structure and function of
cells and interaction between cells. Not intended
for Biology majors or Health Science majors who
plan to enter graduate programs requiring Cell
Biology or Biochemistry (e.g., Physician,
Physician's Assistant or Pharmacy). Such students
should enroll in BIO-201 and (BIO-201L or BIO-210L) and BIO-202 and BIO-202L.
Corequisite
