-
1.00 - 12.00 Credits
Basic anatomy and physiology of the skeletal, nervous, and muscular systems as well as basic histology. Structural and functional relation-ships will be emphasized.
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of Biology 2221. Emphasizes homeostasis and structural and functional relation-ships in the study of cardiovascular, respiratory, urinary, digestive, endocrine, and reproductive systems. Primarily recommended for students interested in nursing, physical therapy and health, physical education, and sports science. Cannot be used for credit toward a degree in Biology.
-
1.00 Credits
Basic anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary endocrine, and reproductive systems. Structural and functional relationships will be emphasized.
-
4.00 Credits
Basic principles and techniques of microbiology including the various types of microbes, their morphology, metabolic processes and their relationships to humans; basic microbiology laboratory principles emphasizing fundamental isolation, identification, and culture techniques. Primarily for nursing majors. Cannot be used for credit toward a degree in Biology.
-
4.00 Credits
Principles of genetics including classical, molecular, population genetics and cytogenetics Importance of genetics as a foundation for other divisions of biology is stressed. The laboratories will explore concepts in both transmission and molecular genetics. Laboratory exercises will demonstrate the principles of segregation and independent assortment. Sex linkage, epistatic relationships, and the principles of human karyotyping will also be examined. Exercises in molecular genetics will introduce students to the process of recombinant DNA technology and will demonstrate the principles involved in molecular separation techniques.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: "C" or better grade in BIOL 2107, 2108 . An examination of the invertebrates including anatomy, ecology, evolution, physiology and phylogeny of invertebrates. In lab, students will observe and identify a selected group of inver-tebrate organisms as well as design and conduct studies of invertebrate physiology, diversity, distri-bution and behavior.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: "C" or better grade in BIOL 2107, 2108 . An examination of the phylogenetic relationships, evolutionary origins, and life history traits of the vertebrates. Laboratories will emphasize the identification of North American vertebrates and examine the relationship between morphology and taxonomy. Two day-long field trips outside of regularly-scheduled lab hours are required.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 2222/2222L or 4431. Examines the biological basis of common, clini-cal disease states. Pathophysiology is treated as a disruption of normal homeostatic mechanisms that progresses beyond the normal compensa-tory capabilities of the human body.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: "C" or better grade in BIOL 2107, 2108 . Evolutionary trends and relationships of major groups of non-vascular and vascular plants as seen in vegetative and reproductive morphol-ogy, life cycles and paleobotany. Students will observe and dissect selected groups of non vascular and vascular plants, with emphasis on evolutionary trends and relationships.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 3300 or consent of instructor. An introduction to the principles of medical genetics and the application of these principles to human genetic disorders. Topics include inborn errors of metabolism, cytogenetic anomalies, neural tube defects, and application of molecular genetics to the diagnosis of specific disorders. Genetic counseling procedures, pre-natal options and the ethical dilemmas generated as a result of these options will also be discussed.
