-
3.00 Credits
A critical exploration of the interaction between Darwinian evolutionay biology and traditional epistemology and the impact of the two fields on one another. The course will demonstrate, with the students as active participants, the nature and fertility of an interdisciplinary inquiry.
-
4.00 Credits
3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory Prerequisites: BIO 121, 122, 131, 132, 234, 244; or permission of instructor; BIO 210, 211 recommended Introduction to the science of heredity. The lectures present an integrated concept of the gene provided from the study of Mendelian and molecular genetics. Selected topics in quantitative inheritance, and human genetics are included.
-
4.00 Credits
3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory Prerequisites: Biology Core A study of the general principles of animal physiology integrating molecular, cellular, organ system, and whole organism approaches. The accompanying laboratory will provide skill in the techniques used in animal physiological investigations.
-
3.00 Credits
Conditions and hours to be arranged Prerequisites: Permission of the instructor, department chairperson, and college dean Study under the supervision of a faculty member in an area covered in a regular course not currently being offered.
&
-
3.00 Credits
The molecular basis of human heredity. Topics include genome organization, gene expression, cell cycle regulation, and mutation as well as the genetic basis of human disease.
-
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
1 to 4 hours Students with senior standing (or others with consent of the instructor) report on and discuss current biological problems as presented in principle journals, abstracts and reviews. The work of each seminar is usually built upon a single unifying content area.
-
4.00 Credits
3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory Prerequisites: BIO 121, 122, 131, 132, 210, 211 Field trips and extensive laboratory work are emphasized in this course. The life histories, ecology and classification of the fishes of the coastal and inland waters of the northeastern states are studied in detail.
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours lecture Prerequisites: Biology core Biology of marine mammals, including cetaceans (whales and dolphins), pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses), sirenians (dugongs and manatees), and sea otters. Fossil, anatomical, physiological, life history, behavioral, and ecological evidence is marshalled to explore marine mammal adaptations for reproduction, feeding, locomotion, diving, thermoregulation, communication, and sensing their environment.
-
4.00 Credits
3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory Prerequisites: Biology core Structure and phylogeny of vertebrates. Laboratory work illustrates evolutionary trends and specializations.
-
4.00 Credits
3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory Prerequisites: Biology core The molecular, cellular and morphogenetic aspects of embryology, organogenesis and other developmental phenomena of animals are considered in the lecture. Some aspects of plant development are discussed. The laboratory includes experiments that demonstrate the morphogenetic activities of the cell. Students are encouraged to design their own experiments.
