4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: BIOL 2230 and BIOL 2270, and 8 semester hours of senior college biology courses. Study of vertebrate histology with emphasis on the four primary tissues (epithelium, connective, muscle, and nerve). Laboratory work consists primarily of detailed microscopic study and drawings of tissues from prepared slides. Two 2-hour laboratory periods per week.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: BIOL 2230, BIOL 2270, CHEM 3601. The organization and function of cellular structures in animal, plant, and microbial systems. Emphasis on the molecular basis of metabolism, transport, mobility, nerve conduction, and the cell cycle.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: BIOL 3100 or consent of instructor. An introduction to viruses and other non-cellular infectious agents. Topics include the structure and composition of these agents, their replication, effects on their host, and host responses. Methods for studying these agents, their origins and evolution, and their uses in biotechnology will also be discussed.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: BIOL 2230, BIOL 2270, BIOL 3100. Basic concepts of immunology, including antigen and antibody structure, the generation of diversity, the nature of T cell and B cell receptors, cellular cooperation, and the down regulation of immune responses.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: BIOL 3200. The study of the molecular nature of eukaryotic genomes, with emphasis on biotechnology. The lecture will focus on using modern molecular genetic techniques as a means to understanding complex eukaryotic genomes. Emphasis will be placed on reading current, relevant scientific literature. The laboratory will involve hands-on experience in which the student will learn the latest technology of molecular genetic analysis and manipulation.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: BIOL 2230, BIOL 2270, BIOL 3200. Study of the theoretical aspects and the patterns and processes of micro- and macro-evolutionary change.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: BIOL 2230 and BIOL 2270. Introduction to the major concepts of causation, development, evolution, and ecology of animal behavior, emphasizing the behavior of social animals.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: BIOL 2230, BIOL 2270, BIOL 3300. A study of the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of fresh waters.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MATH 1112, MATH 1113, OR MATH 1113H. Prerequisite or corequisite: BIOL 3300. A review of the theory and applications of population biology, including single-species population growth models (exponential, geometric, logistic, life tables, state and age-structured matrix models, metapopulation models), population genetics models, and multi-species interaction models (competition, predator-prey, succession, and parasite-host). Integrated computer exercises will allow students to manipulate model parameters and understand model predictions and dynamics.
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 12 hours of upper division biology and a GPA of 3.0. Graded ? ?atisfactory" or "Unsatisfactory.? ?Individualized instruction and practice in assisting with theoperation of biology laboratory exercises in classes that have one laboratory period per week. The student is assigned to one class section for one semester and is expected to assist with all class laboratories. The practicum is directed by the instructor of the class to which the student is assigned. Credits may not be used as biology electives.
