Description:

4 credits Prerequisite: Grade of 'C-' or better in BI 211 and BI 212 or BI 201 and Z 202 or instructor consent. This course is one way to complete the Life Science Majors sequence. There is no Math, Chemistry or Writing requirement currently in place; however, college level writing and math abilities will be an advantage to success in this course. Concepts of phylogeny, evolution and ecology will be explored using vertebrate animal examples. These themes will be examined through studies of comparative anatomy and physiology, natural selection, population genetics, phylogeny and evolution. There is a strong emphasis on activity-based learning, including data collection, analysis and presentation. Note: Z 213 was formerly named Z 203 General Zoology. A student who has taken this class under the previous name may not take it again under this new name and receive duplicate credit.
