- "Moving Bodies" is a three credit
course designed to help students understand how bodies
function through an examination of the process of
movement. Topics will include how muscles contract, how
bones and muscles are organized to produce movements, how
the circulatory and respiratory systems provide oxygen
and energy for movement, and how metabolism and nutrition
provide energy for movement. The relationships between
structure and function and the biological basis for
injury and disease will be emphasized. The course will
provide students with information that they will need to
make informed health and medical decisions and will
address health issues that students may confront in their
own lives. This course is designed for students who are NOT majoring
in science, but must fulfill a distribution or graduation
requirement.
