Course Information
Description Anatomy and Physiology II is the second part of a two-course sequence. It is a study of the structure and function of the human body including the following systems: endocrine, cardiovascular, immune, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive (including nutrition), urinary (including fluid and electrolyte balance), and reproductive (including human development and genetics). Emphasis is on interrelationships among systems and regulation of physiological functions involved in maintaining homeostasis.

Determination of
Final Grade		 Your grade for this class will the average of your 5 exam grades and your average of the online MAP assignments. Each exam as well as the MAP average will count for approximately 16.667% of the course average. Exams that are not taken will receive a grade of "0". There are no re-takes on exams. No grades are dropped when calculating course averages.

MAP assignments completed after the due date will have a late penalty assessed or be given a "0".

Calculating your Lecture Average:
All grades in this class are NOT weighted equally. Thus, you overall course grade is not a ?simple average?.
Extra Credit = (RLB/20) + (OO & Course Policies Quiz/20) + (DB1 /4) + (DB2 /4) + Group Project
Lecture Average = (Ex1 + Ex2 + Ex3 + Ex4 + Final + MAP average + Extra Credit) / 6
