-
3.00 Credits
Laboratory experiences which address topics including, sterile technique, microscopy, identification of microorganisms, microbial metabolism, and microbial genetics. Corequisite(s): BIOL 3250.
-
3.00 Credits
The behavior, ecology, and evolution of vertebrate animals. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher and BIOL 1108L.
-
3.00 Credits
Invertebrate Zoology includes the study of the different phyla of invertebrates; their anatomy and physiology and evolutionary relationships. Invertebrate behavior and their interactions within different ecosystems will be examined. Prerequisites: BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher, and BIOL 1108L.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will cover insect taxonomy, morphology, and physiology with a focus on those insects most commonly found in our environment. It will also explore how insect morphology and physiological systems function in producing and shaping such insect behavior as navigation, reproduction, feeding, oviposition, defense, learning, and sociality. Prerequisite: BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher, and BIOL 1108L.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will focus on observations of animal behaviors and introductory analysis of their adaptive value and evolution. This course will also include a comparative study of mechanisms, ontogeny, function, and evolution of behavior in its ecological and social contexts. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher and BIOL 1108L.
-
3.00 Credits
Principles of evolutionary biology including discussions of natural selection, adaptation, population genetics, speciation, and phylogeny reconstruction. The applications of evolutionary biology to areas such as conservation biology, medicine, and agricultural are discussed. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher and BIOL 1108L.
-
3.00 Credits
The environment is made of both living and non-living components. This course examines the relationships between these various components in the biosphere. Students will learn how complex natural cycles and chains can be perturbed by small disturbances, and conversely, how life adapts to these changes. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher, BIOL 1108L or 1112; MATH 1231.
-
3.00 Credits
Laboratory to accompany BIOL 3500, Ecology. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher, BIOL 1108L, MATH 1231. Prerequisite(s) or Corequisite(s): BIOL 3500.
-
3.00 Credits
This study abroad course covers major tropical ecotypes and encompasses the ecology of terrestrial, aquatic, and marine tropical organisms. Emphasis will be on coral reef ecosystems, including taxonomy and identification of common invertebrates and vertebrates found in the Caribbean basin. Issues pertaining to coral reef conservation will be discussed. The majority of the course will take place at the Gerace Research Centre on the island of San Salvador in the Bahamas. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher and BIOL 1108L with a grade of C or higher.
-
3.00 Credits
A experiment-based study of selected vertebrate phyla with emphasis on gross anatomy, microscopic anatomy and phylogeny. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1108 with a grade of C or higher and BIOL 1108L or 1112. Corequisite(s): BIOL 3650L.
