To identify selected structures of the central nervous system through examination of
models and specimens and by dissection.
To achieve practical dexterity in dissection and keenness of observation.
To understand how the body obtains information, processes it, and executes a function
based on that processing.
To appreciate how to design experiments to test physiologic phenomena, to learn
how to be organized in performing the experiments, to collect data accurately,
and to prepare a detailed report of the exercise.
To learn how to use the Internet as a tool for augmenting knowledge learned in
the laboratory exercises.
Although not required when taking the A&P 2 lecture course (BIO 4162), the
data acquired during hands-on dissection and observation, and physiologic experimentation
will facilitate the student’s comprehension of the lecture material.
|
Dissection of the sheep brain, bovine spinal cord, and sheep eye. The student will
be responsible for being able to identify items specified in the laboratory guide handout.
Material may be added to or deleted from this list as the instructor deems necessary.
Physiology exercises will be performed by the students carefully following the
protocols within the laboratory guide. Any deviations from the prescribed procedures
will be explained at the beginning of the laboratory session. On occasion, the student
may have to prepare a written report for the laboratory exercise.
Laboratory exercise content may be augmented by assigned readings, Internet searches,
or video presentations.
The quizzes used to test the students’ knowledge may use specimens or illustrations.
|
The students must read the laboratory exercises prior to the session.
Ten quizzes, with a good attendance and participation record.
