BioBonds are Learning Community Courses. You may learn more about Learning Community courses at the following link:  biobonds

BioBonds consist of:

BI 112 - Cell Biology for Health Occupations and

CH 112 - Chemistry for Health Occupations

BioBonds are co-requisite classes designed for specific health professions programs.  There is no pre-requisite for BI 112.  The pre-requisite for CH 112 is Math 52 or higher with a P grade of C- or better. Certain score levels of Lane's math placement test qualify to meet the pre-requisite. Review the course description on the class schedule for qualifying test scores or see the course descriptions below.

BioBonds are the pre-requisite for BI 231 -- Human Anatomy & Physiology (both with C- or better).

If you have taken previous biology and chemistry classes, please review your transcript, course description and syllabi for the classes you took and compare to the course descriptions listed below: 

BI 112 Course Description: Corequisite: CH 112 Introduction to human cell structure, function, respiration and division.
