Basics of experimental design and hypothesis testing and use of simple statistics, culminating in written laboratory reports in scientific paper format.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Statement of planned reading or research required. Pre: sophomore standing and consent of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Basic evolutionary and ecological principles underlying the dynamics of plant and animal populations. Mechanisms of isolation, speciation, dispersal, migration, and competition as they affect past and present world distribution patterns. Island biogeography. Pre: GEOG 101; BIOL 101 or 175 or 176; or instructor's consent. (Same as GEOG 309).
-
4.00 Credits
Structure and function of the animal body, including those of the horse, cow, sheep, and pig. A general study of anatomy, but emphasis placed on understanding the physiology of animal systems. Pre: ANSC 141, CHEM 124 or consent of instructor. (Same as ANSC 350).

Pre: BIOL 125 or 175 or 176.
-
1.00 Credits
A laboratory and field course to be taken in conjunction with BIOL 357 lecture. Laboratory exercises will introduce students to the techniques in evolutionary genetics with special reference to Hawaiian plants and animals. Topics to be covered include: quantitative genetics, natural selection molecular genetics analysis of populations and species, ecological genetics and adaptation, and conservation genetics. Pre: BIOL 175, BIOL 175L, BIOL 176, BIOL 176L, BIOL 270, BIOL 270L and BIOL 280.
