AACOMAS Science Course Classification

I was looking on the AACOMAS website trying to decipher between which courses are considered in the calculation of the Science GPA and which are not. Under the "OTHER SCIENCE" category, "Physical Anthropology" is listed, as well as "Forensic Sciences". If I took a class that is classified under anthropology entitled "Introduction to Biological Anthropology", would this be considered Physical Anthropology even though it's listed under the anthropology department? The class had a lab component as well. Also, I am currently taking a class called "The Forensics of Sherlock Holmes" which is completely a course on forensic science and how t relates to Sherlock Holmes which is also listed in the anthropology department and has a lab. Is this considered Forensic Science? In essence, what determines what category a class falls under? Is it just the name of the course? Thank you so much, and I hope this makes sense.

Biological Anthro = Physical Anthro. First instinct would be yes.
As for sherlock class, i'm inclined to say yes .
