This portion of the A & P course focuses on the
fundamentals of biochemistry and the structure and function
of the cell. Either lecture and discussion, or a self-paced,
self-teaching component using CDs, traditional text
materials, and online presentations will be used to
"review/relearn"
the
material. Use Kimball-
Carbohydrates,
Lipids,
Proteins,
Nucleotides
and
Eukaryotic
Animal Cells,
and related links, as your primary source material for
chemistry and cells. CDs with pretests and posttests can
evaluate your progress. The posttest grades may be recorded
as part of the course requirements. A minimum score of 80%
is required on each tutorial. If the 80% is not achieved,
then you must redo the tutorial until you reach the required
level. SQ4R-

for
Examination # 2 onto a page in your word processing program.
With the information from classroom lectures and the links
to the internet, fill in the objective sheet. The
Objective
sheet will be your study guide for the second
exam. The
primary testing beyond this review will be in the area of
Histology
and will contain a lab practicum. It is essential, however
that you master the biochemistry and the cell structure and
function section. Use the resources wisely and complete the
tasks as presented. 3.
The best
text for the study of the tissues is to be found at the
McGraw-Hill site Tissues
of the Human Body:An Introduction.
Use the text and graphics here as you would any textbook to
give you the background information you need to uderstand
the fundamentals of tissues. 4.

Read
the information on cancer from a few excellent sites. Some
of the information is quite technical on cell function, but
if you are to get an understanding of how the disease
functions these details are essential. Examine the sites in
order and critically analyze and assess their
data. This link is an
excellent selection of course topics on Intermediate
Genetics offered at North Dakota State University. There is
much here to investigate if you have an interest in
genetics. At the very bottom of the Course Topics chart is
The
Eukaryotic Cell Cycle and the Genetics of
Cancer.
This is a technical presentation and will require some
concentration and perhaps further research at other links to
pick up a basic understanding of some of its more complex
ideas. The effort, however, will be worth it for you to
understand the inticacies of this disease. The program
entitled Cancer
Warrior
has been placed online at the NOVA website. It features
streaming video of the program, excellent animations and
links relating to cancer. It doesn't get any better than
this for education and you can see here the true power of
technology to teach as the internet matures. Check it
out! Note on the
same page the Flash program How
Cancer Grows.
This is an excellent synopsis of the development of cancer
explaining the mutations that must occur for a cell to be
classified as malignant. 6.
An
Interview with Paul
Nurse:
Paul
Nurse is one of Britain's most distinguished scientists
today. His groundbreaking work on the cell cycle in the
1970s and '80s revealed how cells make the decisions to grow
and divide, thus laying the foundation for a molecular
understanding of cancer. This has earned him numerous
honors, including the Lasker Basic Medical Research Award in
1998, and many regard him a prime candidate for the Nobel
Prize. Since 1996 Sir Paul, who was knighted last year, has
also been director-general of the largest cancer research
organization in the U.K., the Imperial Cancer Research Fund
(ICRF). Epithelium 1.

Online Textbook Use the online
text to get the basic background information on the tissues
as well as representative tissue slides to go with the
verbal descriptions. Go to the
Loyola site and examine the Epithelium and Simple Glands
slides. There will be a portion of your Lab Practicum that
will use a random selection of these slides for you to
identify. You must be able to name the type of epithelial
cells in the target tissue, the organ it is found in, and
the function of the tissue. I will choose anywhere from 6 to
12 of the following slides for you to identify. Here is the
number list for the slides that you will examine and from
which I will make my selection for the practicum. Copy and
Paste the pictures into a file, or a Power Point
Presentation, and use it as a study document to test
yourself and your study partners. Don't forget to
take the Practical Examinations on the Loyola site after you
think you have a grasp of the tissues. Go to this site
to examine normal epithelial tissue and pathogical
conditions of the same tissue. This is an opportunity to see
varoius medical conditions from the perspective of
pathologists who make the medical diagnoses of various
states of disease. Power

presentation folder on the desk top you will find the
presentation Connective-Muscle Lab Key. This presentation
contains the pool of specific slides with descriptions that
will be used on the next lab practicum. You should be able
to identify and classify twelve to fifteen of these slides,
chosen at random, on the next lab exam. These slides have
come from the JayDoc
site at the University of Kansas
(Muscle-Connective-Cartilage-Bone-Blood) and can be viewed
there at any time. 6. Here's a

Remember that the test on this section is an essay.
Because you know precisely what you are to write on,
it only makes sense that you would compose an essay
before you take the examination. This composition
should develop over a period of days as each lecture
is given and links are visited. Don't try to construct
the essay extemporaneously there is too much
here. 3.
The Lab portion of this section involves learning the
bones of the skeleton for an Oral Examination. There
are websites that have all of the bones of the
skeleton displayed and described along with exams and
quizzes to test your knowledge. Take advantage of this
to support your in class study of the skeleton.

development to support and enrich the classroom notes
and lectures.

Search the excellent illustrations on the location of
the muscles on your Human
Superficial Muscles Examination Study
Page
from
the
Musculoskeletal
Anatomy
site.
These
illustrations
can be copied and pasted and so can the Origins,
Insertions and Actions
from
The
Master Muscle

.
You can make an excellent study guide for yourself
using Power Point
and
a removable white box to cover the names of the
muscles. You can type the Origins , Insertions and
actions on the same page and use a removable white box
to cover them. This
study
aid would be invaluable for you to learn the muscles
and their ancillary information. Or, if Power Point is
not your thing, then COPY and PASTE
the
Human
Superficials List
onto
a page in your word processor and fill in the origin,
insertion and action. Your choice. 4.
