Anatomy and Physiology I (BIO 110E/BIO 110LE)
In Anatomy and Physiology I (BIO 110E/BIO 110LE), an online biology lecture/laboratory combination course, you will explore the anatomical structure and physiological processes of the human body. You’ll learn anatomy and physiology from microscopic (atoms and cells) and macroscopic (organ functionality and bodily systems) perspectives. This self-paced course will prepare you to pursue degrees in numerous healthcare disciplines, including nursing, occupational therapy, pre-medicine, physical therapy, physician assistant studies, and acupuncture.
This course does not have any prerequisites.
MCPHS also offers Anatomy and Physiology II. Please visit our Anatomy and Physiology II prerequisite course page for more information.
Course Format
Anatomy and Physiology I (BIO 110E/BIO 110LE) is an online, asynchronous, self-paced course that includes both a 3-credit lecture session and a 1-credit laboratory session. This course does not have specific meeting times or deadlines. You will complete your assignments on your schedule over 16 weeks using Blackboard, an online learning platform. You will also have the support of an instructor, as well as 24/7 online tutoring as you progress through the coursework. After completing this course, you will receive a final letter grade and be able to request an official transcript from our Registrar’s Office. Please note: Students can register for the lecture, the lab, or both. Registration is separate for each of these courses.

Refund Policy
Students can receive a full tuition refund if they drop a course within five business days of registering. Course changes will also be allowed during this five-day window.
After the five-day window closes (and up until the course’s completion date), students may choose to withdraw from the course without a refund. This would result in a “W” on their student record.

It is the student’s responsibility to ensure they have all the required resources needed to access the course material and software.
How to Register
Once you’ve selected your course of interest and are ready to register, all that’s left is to create your account and pay the tuition fees. You’ll be asked to create a username and password, provide some basic personal information, and pay the course’s tuition. You’ll receive access to your course within two business days of paying tuition.
“The online, self-paced format was a perfect fit for me while working a full time job. I believe that the length of time to complete the course was adequate and the resources provided were very helpful.”

This course sequence consists of three, 4 quarter credit courses (total of 12 term credits), equivalent to 8 semester credits. Courses are taken in sequential order. Each course has lecture and lab components.
Lectures focus on physiology and rely on lecture videos, exercises and assigned reading. Labs focus on anatomy studied from a 3D interactive anatomy program, images and drawings and lab videos. We use weekly quizzes and tests to reinforce learning and test student’s knowledge in both lecture and labs.
Examinations use Respondus Lockdown Browser.
Course Content
This course includes the basic introductory cytology and histology and covers all of the body systems including integumentary, musculoskeletal, endocrine (BIO 231), nervous, cardiovascular, immune (BIO 232), digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive systems (BIO 233). Acid-base balance, metabolism, human genetics and development are also studied.
There are no prerequisites, but some background in biology and chemistry is very helpful.
