3.00 Credits
(2lab) This course gives an introduction to the scientific method the origin and organization of life and reproduction and ecology. The relevance of modern biological theory to human life in particular areas will be emphasized using selected topics such as urban pollution and population control.
-
3.00 Credits
(2recitation) This is a one-semester laboratory-based course in biology stressing general concepts and amplifying them through a study of the human organism. The scientific method of thinking will be emphasized. Topics will include biological chemistry, cell structure and function, classical and molecular genetics, evolution and ecology, and homeostasis will be explored in the context of human biology. Laboratory exercises will include chemical analyses of nutrients, microscope slides and dissection of the fetal pig.

3.00 Credits
(3lab) This course is an introduction to the science of food with emphasis on microorganisms which affect it. Digestive processes and fundamental chemistry of food are studied, as well as the complex interactions which exist between food and microorganisms, including handling, preparation, and storage. The laboratory will focus on morphological and physiological characteristics of microorganisms associated with contamination, spoilage, preservation, and food-borne disease. This course does not fulfill the Dietetic Technology General Microbiology requirement.
-
3.00 Credits
(3lab) This course is an integrated two-semester laboratory-based sequence, stressing major concepts of biology designed to assist the student in relating these concepts to the environment. The scientific method of thinking and the experimental approach will be stressed. Among the topics studied are: SCB201: Cellular and molecular basis of life, heredity, and the evolution of life. SCB202: Survey of the kingdoms, organismic anatomy and physiology with emphasis on the human system, the principles of ecology, and problems of population.

3.00 Credits
(3lab) This course is an introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the human body. The architecture and function of cells, tissues, and organ systems will be studied. The laboratory includes physiology experiments and gross and microscopic anatomy experiments using the cat as a dissection subject. Topics will include the chemistry of life, the cell, skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular, immune and respiratory systems. Students should expect to pay for additional materials.

(3lab) This course is an introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the human body. The architecture and function of cells, tissue, and organ systems will be studied. The laboratory includes physiology experiments and gross and microscopic anatomy experiments, using the cat as a dissection subject. Topics will include the digestive, nervous, endocrine, urinary, and reproductive systems. A student will need disposable gloves and a dissection kit.
-
1.00 Credits
(1lab) This course introduces the student to the evolution, anatomy, and physiology of the major vertebrate classes. Emphasis is placed on the taxonomy and characteristics of vertebrates. Muscle and bone organization and the physiology of contraction are also covered in depth. In the laboratory, students have the opportunity to dissect representative non-mammalian vertebrates.
-
2.00 Credits
(2lab) This course is a continuation of Vertebrate Anatomy and Physiology 1. Major organ systems are discussed while emphasis is placed on mammalian anatomy and physiology. In the laboratory, students have the opportunity to view these systems through the dissection of a cat.
