This course includes lecture and laboratory studies concerning microbes: bacteria, fungi, protists, animals, and viruses, with an emphasis on bacterial physiology, virulence, staining, classification, metabolism, growth, and the effects of physical and chemical agents on bacteria. The course includes study of microorganisms affecting humans, principles of disease transmission, disease prevention, immunity, and biotechnology. Required safety items include a lab coat, gloves, and ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses. Prerequisites: CHEM V120 or CHEM V101 or CHEM V104 with grade of "C" or better; and BIOL V04 or PHSO V01 or AG V66 or equivalent with grade of "C" or better. Field trips may be required. Transfer credit: CSU; UC. Formerly: Micro 1.

This course is a survey of the physiological principles, function, integration, and homeostasis of the human body at the cellular, tissue, organ, organ system, and organism level. Lecture explores the physiology of the integumentary system, bone, muscle tissue, nervous system, sensory organs, cardiovascular system, lymphatic and immune systems, respiratory system, urinary system, digestive system, endocrine system, and reproductive system. Laboratory experiments emphasize an understanding of physiological principles and introduce students to common techniques and instruments used in the discipline. Prerequisites: ANAT V01 or concurrent enrollment; and CHEM V120 or CHEM V101 or CHEM V104 or 1 year of high school chemistry with a grade of "C" or better. Transfer credit: CSU; UC; credit limitations - see counselor. Notes: This course is intended for nursing, allied health, kinesiology, and other health science related majors.
