  • 1.00 Credits

    Class hours: 3.0 Laboratory Prerequisite: BIOL 120 or equivalent with a grade of Pass or "C" or higher. This course is designed for pre-teaching, life science majors. The student will learn the use and care of laboratory apparatus through actual experience in the classroom. The student will assist the instructor in the laboratory by performing such jobs as helping to prepare demonstrations, designing displays, and aiding individuals in the class. This course may be taken for a maximum of 2 times. Transfer Credit: CSU
  • 5.00 Credits

    Class hours: 3.0 Lecture/6.0 Laboratory Prerequisite: CHEM 111 or equivalent with a grade of Pass or "C" or higher or concurrent enrollment. BIOL 120 or ZOOL 120 or BOT 120 or equivalent with a grade of Pass or "C" or higher. The course provides a basic survey of major groups of organisms (Kingdoms Monera, Protista, Plants, and Animals) within a context of unifying themes of evolution and ecology. Emphasis will be on structure and function or organisms with consideration given to phylogeny, taxonomy, adaptations, and interactions among organisms and their environment. Animal behavior and select vertebrate organ systems will be included. This course is designed as one semester of a two part series (coordinating with BIOL 201) for biology/medical majors. Transfer Credit: CSU; UC

    Class hours: 3.0 Lecture/6.0 Laboratory Prerequisite: CHEM 111 or equivalent with a grade of Pass or "C" or higher. BIOL 120 or ZOOL 120 or BOT 120 or equivalent with a grade of Pass or "C" or higher. The principles of modern biology are discussed at the molecular, cellular, and organismic levels. Integrated within the course will be units on biochemistry, cell biology, origin of life, physiology of excitable tissues, genetics, molecular biology, biotechnology, immunology and developmental biology. Transfer Credit: CSU; UC
  • 4.00 Credits

    Class hours: 4.0 Lecture Prerequisite: BIOL 201 and CHEM 211 or equivalent with grades of Pass or "C" or higher. CHEM 211 may be taken concurrently. Biology 202 is an extension of the study of molecular biology, cell biology and genetics introduced in BIOL 201. This course examines the structure and function of nucleic acids and proteins in the living cell, as well as how these molecules are studied and manipulated in the laboratory. Topics include regulation of gene expression, recombinant DNA technology, chromosome mapping and viral and prokaryotic genetics. Transfer Credit: CSU; UC
  • 1.00 Credits

    Class hours: 3.0 Laboratory Prerequisite: BIOL 120 or equivalent with a grade of Pass or "C" or higher. This course is designed primarily for biological science majors. Individual research problems are explored using materials, equipment, and techniques not available to larger classes. This course may be taken for a maximum of 4 times. Transfer Credit: CSU, UC credit determined after admission
  • 1.00 Credits

    Class hours: 3.0 Independent Study A course to provide opportunity for individual research and field projects under the direction of a faculty member in a given department. With the guidance of the faculty member, students prepare and carry out a written learning agreement describing the purposes and outcomes of the project. Students should expect to meet with the supervising faculty member one to two hours each week for conferences. Credit is based upon the number of hours in the semester expected to complete the project (1 unit for 54 hours, 2 units for 108 hours). This course may be taken a maximum of 2 times. For selected disciplines, UC transfer credit may be possible after admission to a UC campus, pending review of appropriate course materials by UC staff. See a counselor for an explanation.

  • 4.00 Credits

    Class hours: 2.0 Lecture/6.0 Laboratory Prerequisite: Satisfactory completion of the English Placement Process or ENGL 52 or equivalent with a grade of Pass or "C" or higher. This is a basic course in plant biology designed not only to introduce the student to plants, but also to cover in some depth many of the facets of botany. Included will be plant cell biology and chemistry, a survey of major plant groups and their life cycles and characteristics, plant ecology and evolution. The course will help prepare students for a life science major, but it can also be taken to fulfill a lab science requirement in general education. Four field trips to examine local plant communities are part of the class. Students will also conduct a research project, prepare a scientific paper, and make a poster presentation based on their project. Transfer Credit: CSU; UC
