BIO*H 122 - Organismal Biology

Institution:

Connecticut State Community College Naugatuck

Subject:

Description:

4 cr. Utilizing the same integrative approach as BIO*H121, students will investigate biotechnology (gel electrophoresis for DNA and protein analysis), biological statistics, population genetics, evolution, protists, plant biology (lifecycles and growth of fungi, non-vascular and vascular plants), animal biology (early development and histology, comparison of invertebrate and vertebrate life cycles and physiological systems), animal behavior, and ecology. Science process skills are emphasized. Collaboratively, students will investigate a scientific research topic culminating in a written report and oral presentation to their peers. This course is one part of a two semester sequence in general biology primarily for students seeking transfer into a four-year degree program. This is the second semester of general biology; however, BIO*H121 and H122 can be taken in any order. This course satisfies the common core science requirement for both non-majors & majors. Integrated 3 hours lecture & 3 hours lab
