Recent developments and current topics in selected areas of modern biology. May be repeated for a total of 4 units. Prerequisite: BIOL 111, 111L, 112, 112L, 113, 113L
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the biology of the invertebrate phyla. Treatment organized phylogenetically and covers a broad spectrum of current knowledge about the biology of individual representatives of marine invertebrate organisms. Three class hours and one three-hour laboratory per week, with extended field trips substituting for some labs. Offered occasionally. Prerequisite: BIOL 111, 111L, 112, 112L, 113, 113L
-
2.00 Credits
The flow of scientific information from the research laboratory to textbooks and the popular media. The presentation of current research and its integration into the body of knowledge. Requires attendance at minimum of one national scientific meeting within the Southern California area. Limited class size. Prerequisite:: BIOL 111, 111L, 112, 112L, 113, 113L or consent of instructor. May NOT be taken concurrently with UHNR 324.
-
4.00 Credits
Basic concepts concerning the relationships of organisms to their environment. Emphasis on physiological responses of individuals, structure, and dynamics of populations, interactions between species, and the structure, dynamics, and functions of communities and ecosystems. Includes equivalent of one threehour laboratory per week. May substitute for BIOL 415. Taught alternate years. Prerequisite: BIOL 111, 111L, 112, 112L, 113, 113L
-
4.00 Credits
Environmental Science is an interdisciplinary study of how the physical, chemical and biological conditions of the earth work, and how we are affecting the earth's life-support systems (the environment). This course introduces students to the very complex interlocking environmental problems facing us today. Beginning with basic ecological principles, the course goes on to examine population dynamics, energy utilization, resource consumption, the various forms of pollution, and conservation methods to preserve our natural resources, natural areas, and native species. This is a Service-Learning course and includes a three-hour laboratory period per week. May substitute for BIOL 414. Taught alternate years. Prerequisite: BIOL 111, 111L, 112, 112L, 113, 113L
-
4.00 Credits
Descriptive and functional analysis of normal human tissues and organs. Three class hours and one three-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisite: BIOL 111, 111L, 112, 112L, 113, 113L
-
4.00 Credits
Consideration of the diverse roles of the vertebrate immune system with special attention to events that occur at the level of cellular communication and signaling. The immune response against cancer and the interaction of the immune system with the central nervous system will be explored. The components of the immune response will be developed in light of available experimental evidence, and immunology will be presented as an investigative science. Prerequisite: BIOL 111, 111L, 112, 112L, 113, 113L
-
4.00 Credits
An advanced course on the functions of the mammalian nervous system. Neuronal substrates of behavior including perception, motivation, emotion, memory, consciousness, abnormal thought and behavior are explored. Genetic correlates of behavior also considered. Identical to PSYC 452. Prerequisite: BIOL 111, 111L, 112, 112L, 113, 113L, 466.
