Students learn anatomic and physiologic terminology, the principles of the relationships between form and function and basic mathematical calculations converting between the metric and English systems of measurement. Students also learn specific information about and concepts of basic chemistry, cell structure and chemistry, cell reproduction and tissue structure. The anatomy and physiology of four of the body's eleven systems are also presented. In laboratory investigations, students acquire knowledge about bones, muscular function and microscopic examination of tissues.
