Course designed to introduce and stimulate interest in the concepts and techniques of cell and molecular biology. Lectures focus attention on the biochemistry and the molecular organization of cells and the application of molecular genetic principles to all areas of cell biology. Laboratory exercises focus on achieving an enhanced understanding of topics associated with protein biochemistry (protein structure, function, and isolation), detection and molecular basis of disease, localization of enzymes in plant and animal cells, examination of properties of cell-surface receptors, organization and structure of prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes, and function and regulation. Prerequisites: BIOL 232, CHEM 230, 231.
Prerequisite:
Undergraduate level BIOL 232, CHEM 230, CHEM 231 Minimum Grade of C

A survey of the living and non-living components of the environments, with a specific emphasis on man and his position (past, present, and future) in the biosphere and the Earth. Course to include subject matter related to the individual and the environment, populations, social interactions, community organization, distribution of communities, and ecosystems. Laboratory will consist of learning techniques used for measuring ecological parameters, e.g., temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, water hardness, nitrates, etc. Static bioassays conducted to test the effects of selected chemicals on animals and plants.
