-
4.00 Credits
Gross architectural elemetns of the mammalian body, with emphais upon correlation of form and function. Lecture and laboratory.
-
3.00 Credits
Comparative ethology in the animal kingdom and its adaptive significance based upon the evolution of form and fucntion of the nervous system, sense organs and effector organs. Topics include instinct, learning, itelligence, social organization and their physiological integrating mechanisms. Lecture only.
-
4.00 Credits
Plants are a diverse and important group of organisms. In this course students compare the morphology and anatomy of vascular and nonvascular plants, use scientific method to answer a question about plants using microscopy and other anatomical or morphological techniques, and communicate results of their studies to classmates. The course includes instruction in plant identification techniques and in taxonomic methods. Lecture and laboratory.
-
4.00 Credits
Physiochemical basis of plant life, emphasizing life processes of major significance to the seed plants. Lecture and laboratory.
-
4.00 Credits
The study of local plant species, with emphasis on phylogenetic relationships, systematics, ecological relationships and economic or ethnobotanic uses. Focus will be on species that are flowering during the semester that the course is taught, usually summer or fall. Lecture, laboratory and field trips.
-
3.00 Credits
Plants of particular economic significance to humans as sources of food, fibers, flavoring agents, drugs and industrial chemical; horticultural plants; the role of economic plants in past and modern society. Lecture Only
-
4.00 Credits
The study of fungi, a distinct kingdom of unicellular and filamentous organisms, Fungi have tremendous ecological importance playing essential roles s decomposers as well as parasties and symbionts. Fungi also have significant economic importance in the food and beverage industries. This course covers all aspects of fungal biology, including laboratory culture, natural history, morphogenesis, genetics and physiology. Lecture and laboratory.
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed for upper level undergraduates and builds on Genetics and Cell Biology. Molecular biology is rapidly advancing the fields of biomedical sciences and agricultural sciences. Understanding the chemistry of DNA, RNA and proteins has allowed scientists in biomedical and agricultural sciences the ability to manipulate these macromolecules to more fully understand cellular functions, treat human diseases and engineer more viable crops and live stock. This course is designed to provide students with a broad understanding of molecular biology as well as teach modern molecular biology techniques routinely used in research labs, forensics labs and hospital diagnostic labs. Lecture and Laboratory.
-
4.00 Credits
Study of the taxonomy and identification, ultrastructure and function, nutrition and growth, physiology, metabolsim, molecular genetics, host-microbial interactions, immunology ecology and biotechnology of microorganisms and viruses. Lecture and laboratory.
-
3.00 Credits
Systematic study of the distinctive cellular and molecular properties of pathogenic microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, viruses and protozoans. Mechanisms of infection, diagnosis, treatment and control of these microorganims. Lecture only.
