  2. properly identify structural features of human tissues and cells under light microscopy.= (1-Facutal; 3-Apply)
  3. properly identify human gross anatomy structures and features in a laboratory/clinical setting. (1-Factual; 3-Apply)
  4. explain the structural hierarchy and organizational levels of anatomical classification (2-Conceptual; 2-Understand)
  5. explain the interrelationship of structure and function in macroscopic and microscopic aspects of human anatomy (2- Conceptual; 4-Analyze)
  6. explain the anatomical interdependence of cells, tissues and organs (2-Conceptual; 2-Understand)
  7. describe the basic physiological processes essential to human life (2-Conceptual; 1-Remember)
  8. demonstrate professional and sensitive usage of language and behavior suited to clinical and laboratory settings (3-Procedural; 3-Apply)
