This document summarizes chapter 17 on the special senses from a biology textbook. It describes the five special senses - taste, smell, vision, hearing, and balance. For each sense, it outlines the key sensory structures and mechanisms. For example, it explains that taste buds detect five basic flavors through receptor cells on the tongue, and that smell works via odor molecules binding to receptors in the nasal cavity. Vision involves light being focused on the retina, while hearing uses the outer, middle and inner ear to detect and transmit sound vibrations. Balance is mediated by structures in the inner ear that sense body movement and position.
This document discusses the autonomic nervous system. It notes that the autonomic nervous system has two divisions: sympathetic and parasympathetic. The sympathetic division is involved in the fight or flight response and activates processes like increased heart rate and blood pressure. The parasympathetic division induces the rest and digest response and decreases heart rate and activates digestion. The autonomic nervous system regulates automatic bodily functions and processes through cholinergic and adrenergic neurons that release acetylcholine or norepinephrine which act on target organs through nicotinic, muscarinic, alpha, and beta receptors.
This document provides an overview of the structure and function of the human brain and nervous system. It describes the major parts of the brain including the cerebrum, cerebellum, brain stem, and more. It discusses the circulation of blood and cerebrospinal fluid in the brain and spinal cord. The document also outlines the 12 pairs of cranial nerves and their functions in sensation and motor control. Key areas of the cerebral cortex involved in sensory and motor functions are identified as well.
The document discusses the anatomy and organization of the spinal cord and spinal nerves. It describes the protective coverings of the spinal cord, the meninges, and the spaces they create. It details the structure of the spinal cord including the gray and white matter, horns, fissures, and tracts. The document outlines the arrangement of spinal nerves including the 31 pairs of mixed spinal nerves and their branches. It maps the formation and branches of the major plexuses: cervical, brachial, lumbosacral, and sacral plexuses. Finally, it examines several types of reflex arcs and examples of monosynaptic and polysynaptic reflexes.
The nervous system helps maintain homeostasis and control conditions within healthy limits. The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system connects them to muscles, glands, and sensory receptors. Neurons are the basic functional units and communicate via electrical signals called action potentials. The document provides detailed information on the structure and function of neurons, neurotransmission, and regeneration capabilities after injury.
Skeletal muscles cause movement by exerting force through tendons attached to bones or other structures. There are three types of levers that determine how muscles generate movement based on the positions of the fulcrum, effort, and load. Muscle fibers are arranged in fascicles that determine the muscle's range of motion and power output. While individual muscles are often attributed to specific actions, movements usually result from groups of muscles working together as prime movers, antagonists, synergists, or fixators.
The document describes the bones that make up the upper and lower limbs. It discusses the following key points:
- The upper limb has two regions - the pectoral girdle which attaches the limb to the axial skeleton, and the free part which includes the bones of the arm, forearm, wrist and hand.
- The lower limb also has two regions - the single pelvic girdle which attaches the limb to the axial skeleton, and the free part which includes the bones of the thigh, leg, ankle and foot.
- Both limbs have long bones that make up the upper arm/thigh, two bones that form the forearm/leg, multiple wrist/ankle
This document discusses the classification and structure of different joint types. It begins by describing the three main structural classifications: fibrous joints which are held together by dense connective tissue and permit little movement; cartilaginous joints which are connected by cartilage and allow slight movement; and synovial joints which are connected by ligaments and contain a synovial cavity allowing free movement. It then focuses on synovial joints, describing their articular capsule, synovial fluid, accessory ligaments, blood and nerve supply, bursae, tendon sheaths and types including ball-and-socket, hinge, and pivot joints. Finally, it discusses the different types of movements that can occur at synovial joints
The document discusses the skeletal system, describing its two divisions: the axial skeleton which includes bones around the longitudinal axis, and the appendicular skeleton which includes limb bones. It outlines five types of bones based on shape - long, short, flat, irregular, and sesamoid. Specific bones are also discussed including the skull, hyoid bone, vertebral column, thorax, and their features and functions.
The integumentary system includes the skin, hair, nails, and glands. The skin is the largest organ of the body and has two main layers - the epidermis and dermis. The epidermis contains keratinocytes, melanocytes, Langerhans cells, and Merkel cells. It has multiple layers that produce keratin to protect the body. The dermis lies below the epidermis and contains collagen, elastic fibers, and structures like hair follicles and sweat and oil glands. The skin regulates body temperature, protects the body, and has sensory functions.
The integumentary system includes the skin, hair, nails, and glands. The skin is the largest organ and protects the body. It has two main layers - the epidermis composed of keratinized cells, and the dermis of connective tissue. The epidermis contains melanocytes, Langerhans cells, and Merkel cells. Hair, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, and nails are structures within the skin. The skin regulates temperature, protects, and has sensory functions.
This document discusses the structure and function of tissues. It begins by defining a tissue as a group of cells that work together to perform a specialized function. There are four main tissue types - epithelial, connective, muscular and nervous tissue. The document then goes into extensive details about the histology, structure and functions of each type of tissue. It provides information on the different cell types that make up tissues, how cells are joined together through cellular junctions, and the characteristics and roles of the four primary tissue types in the body.
The document describes key components and processes of the cell including the plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, and organelles. It discusses the structure and functions of the plasma membrane, including the fluid mosaic model. It also summarizes cellular transport mechanisms, endocytosis, exocytosis, and active and passive transport. The roles and structures of key organelles like the nucleus, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, and endoplasmic reticulum are outlined. Cell division and the stages of the cell cycle, including interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis, are summarized.
This document provides an overview of anatomy and physiology, describing the six levels of organization of the human body from the chemical to the organismal level. It explains that anatomy is the study of body structures and physiology is the study of body functions. The six levels of organization are the chemical, cellular, tissue, organ, system, and organismal levels. The document also introduces basic anatomical terminology used to describe body positions and locations.

Assessments: Assessments for this course will include weekly online quizzes and four
proctored exams. The four exams must be taken at a Testing Center so
that they can be proctored. The exams will be closed book. Early in the
semester we will work out where you are going to take the proctored
exams. If you take the exams at any of Yavapai College’s Testing
Centers the proctoring will be free. If you are in a location that requires
a non Yavapai College affiliated Testing Center you may have to pay a
small fee to take the exams. (Usually about 15 – 30 dollars) You are
responsible for this fee to take the exams. Every effort will be made to
find a free testing center. There will be 11 online quizzes covering the
lecture and lab material. The questions on the quizzes will be similar,
but not identical, to those found on the exams. The point of the quizzes
3. is to prepare you for the types of questions you will see on the exams.
There will be weekly online labs. At the beginning of the semester
students will be required to complete a quiz covering the syllabus for the
class.
Grading (credit) criteria:
Exams:
4 proctored exams at 125 pts apiece………………...…...500 pts.

Total Points
1,435pts.
Letter Grades: The first criterion to pass the class is to achieve a 70% average on the
proctored exams. Once that criterion is met the letter grades will be
assigned as follow:
A = 1,291 – 1,435 pts. B = 1,148 – 1,290 pts. C = 1,004 – 1,147 pts. D
= 861– 1,003 pts. F ≤ 860 pts.
Labs will be graded for quality and completeness. Each lab is worth 35
points. Labs will be assigned weekly and will be due on Tuesdays at 5
pm. The lab material will be on the proctored exams so when you’re
completing the labs you’re studying for the proctored exams!
Labs:
Quizzes: Quizzes will be given online about once a week. Each quiz will be
worth 35 points and will be due on Tuesdays at 5 pm. The quiz
questions will be on the proctored exams so when you’re completing the
quizzes you’re studying for the proctored exams!
Exams: There will be four closed book comprehensive proctored exams during
the semester. Each exam will be worth 125 points. The average score
for the four exams must be a 70% in order to pass the class.
Grading Policy:
Absences:
My official grading policy is that all assignments will be graded and
returned one week after they are due (or one week after I receive them in
the mail for proctored exams). However, most of the time it will be
much sooner than that.
No late work will be accepted. All assignments will be posted one week
before they are due so that students can fit the assignment into their
particular schedule. All assignments must be completed by their due
date to receive credit. No extra credit will be assigned.
Student Resources (as applicable)
Library services: Library services are available at the Prescott Campus and the Verde
4. Valley Campus libraries. Both libraries are members of a countywide
library network, which provides access to a wide-range of information
and resources at libraries throughout YavapaiCounty. Possession of a
College library card entitles students to access materials housed at
member libraries. Instructors may place required course materials on
reserve in the library or make assignments that require the use of library
resources.
Learning Centers: A LearningCenter is available on the Prescott and Verde Valley
Campuses. These centers provide a variety of learning support for
students including tutoring, adaptive computer and equipment for
students with disabilities, and a networked general computer lab.

Instructor Procedures and Institution Policies
Attendance: Students are expected to attend and participate in all class meetings,
laboratories, and field trips. A student who expects to be absent due to
another school-sponsored activity or compelling personal reason must
make prior arrangements with the instructor. All course work must be
made up as directed by the instructor. A student who does not adhere to
instructor and College attendance requirements may be dropped from
the course as defined in the Yavapai College General Catalog.
Course withdrawal: After the drop/add period closes, students may withdraw until the
deadline for student-initiated withdrawals. Withdrawals result in a "W"
on the permanent transcript.
For semester-length classes 14 weeks in length or longer, the withdrawal
deadline is October 15th
For classes of 4 days to 14 weeks in length, withdrawals are permitted
until the class is 50 percent completed.
For classes of 1-3 days in length, withdrawals are permitted until the
class is 50 percent completed.
A "Y" is noted on the permanent transcript for an administrative
withdrawal. More information can be obtained from the Admissions &
Registration Office.
Academic integrity: Honesty in academic work is a central element of the learning
environment. The presentation of another individual’s work as one’s
own or the act of seeking unfair academic advantage through cheating,
plagiarism or other dishonest means are violations of the College’s
“Student Code of Conduct.” Definitions of plagiarism, cheating, and
violation of copyright and penalties for violation are available in the
Yavapai College General Catalog. All cell phones must be stowed
before beginning an assessment. The presence of a cell phone on a
5. student’s desk during an assessment will be construed as cheating and
the student will receive an F for the class. Any incident of cheating or
plagiarism on any assignment in the class will result in the student
receiving an F as their letter grade for the class.
Student code of conduct: Respect for the rights of others and for the College and its property are
fundamental expectations for every student. The “Student Code of
Conduct” outlines behavioral expectations, and explains the process for
responding to allegations of student misconduct.
Disability support services: YavapaiCollege is committed to providing educational support services
to students with documented disabilities. Academic support services or
accommodations for mobility impaired students must be arranged
through the ADA Coordinator (Prescott Campus: 928.776.2079 or
Verde Valley Campus: (928.634.6563).
Cell phone and pager: YavapaiCollege is committed to providing a quality learning
environment. All cell phones and pagers must be placed in a nonaudible mode while in classrooms, computer labs, the library, the
learning center, and testing areas. Cell phones and pagers must be used
outside these facilities.
Preventing Harassment: Students are expected to respond and write in a professional and
appropriate manner when activities are assigned to create scenarios,
discuss opinions, present on a selected subject, or post to a web board or
email. Students and faculty each have responsibility for maintain an
appropriate learning environment. Faculty have the professional
responsibility to treat all students with understanding, dignity and
respect, to guide classroom discussion and to set reasonable limits on the
manner in which they and their students express opinions. Professional
courtesy and sensitivity are especially important with respect to
individuals and topics dealing with differences of race, culture, religion,
politics, sexual orientation, gender variance and nationalities. All
correspondence between instructor and students and between individual
students must be of a professional nature. Any inappropriate language
(profanity) or correspondence of a threatening or harassing nature will
result in the student being immediately dropped from the class.
