I don't know. I have also taken A&P 2. While we touched on the chemical aspects of digestion and cardiac function, we didn't actually go into calculations. In A&P 2, we were shown a formula just so we can understand how respiration works but we didn't have to do anything with the formula.

Hmmm...maybe wer're talking two different things here. When I say Chemistry and assiciate it with Anatomy, i'm thinking of all the Ca, K, Na+..Kreb Cycle, Acid Base, Na K pumps etc...not actual calculations. I'd rather wait until Pharmacology until calculations thank you very much.

We covered all of that stuff in A&P 1 and 2. There was another person who posted earlier that her first test was all chemistry. I didn't have that experience. To me, just having the basic knowledge of chemistry should be enough.

along with my A& P 1 class. I did very well in both.
Oh thank goodness, I'm signed up for chem and A&P 1 for the spring.
