-
4.00 Credits
6 hours(3, lecture; 3, lab), 4 credits. Introduction to the principles of biology governing the unity and diversity of living organisms, with special emphasis on biological diversity, physiological mechanisms involved in the coordination of activity in plants and animals, and ecology. Laboratory exercises consist of experimental procedures illustrating basic concepts of biology.
-
4.00 Credits
5 hours (3, lecture; 2, lab), 4 credits. ( Open only to students majoring in Nursing; Dietetics, Foods, and Nutrition; Health Education, and Physical Education.) Study of human anatomy and physiology. Lecture topics include cell structure and function, tissues, and the study of the skeletal, muscular, nervous, and endocrine systems. Laboratory exercises complement the lecture material with the use of a workbook, models, and animal preparations.
-
4.00 Credits
5 hours (3, lecture; 2, lab), 4 credits. ( Open only to students majoring in Nursing, Dietetics, Foods, and Nutrition; Health Education, and Physical Education.) Continuation of BIO 181. Lecture topics include the cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems, and selected topics on metabolism and fluid homeostasis. Emphasis is given to the physiological functioning of these systems. Laboratory experiments illustrate the concepts discussed in the lectures. PREREQ: BIO 181.
-
4.00 Credits
5 hours (3, lecture; 2, lab), 4 credits ( closed to students majoring in Biology). Introduction to the structure and function of the human body, with emphasis on the physiological mechanisms in health and disease. Topics include: the molecules of life; cells and tissues; the skeleton; muscles; the heart; blood; skin; the eye; the ear; reproduction theory; the brain; genetics; infectious disease; the immune system; cancer; and nutrition.
-
4.00 Credits
5 hours (3, lecture; 2, lab), 4 credits ( closed to students majoring in Biology). Introduction to the world of plants, with emphasis on the interactions and interdependency of plants and people. Note: All 200-, 300-, and 400-level BIO courses carry the following PREREQ: BIO 166-167 (or equivalents). Additional prerequisites are listed.
-
3.50 Credits
5 hours (2, lecture; 3, lab), 3.5 credits. ( Closed to students majoring in Biology.) Study of human anatomy and physiology, with emphasis on the integration and regulation of physiological processes. Laboratory work illustrates the principles discussed in the lectures.
-
4.00 Credits
6 hours (2, lecture; 4, lab), 4 credits. Microscopic study of cells, tissues, and organs from prepared slides, with emphasis on the correlation between structure and function. Recent advances grounded in electron microscopy and histochemistry are discussed.
-
4.00 Credits
6 hours (2, lecture; 4, lab), 4 credits. Study of the basic principles of mammalian physiology. Various organ systems will be presented to illustrate their mechanisms of operation, their nervous and hormonal control, and their interrelationships with other organ systems in maintaining homeostasis. Emphasis will be given to the cardiovascular, neuromuscular, renal, and respiratory systems. PREREQ: CHE 168-169.
-
4.00 Credits
6 hours (2, lecture; 4, lab), 4 credits. ( Open only to students majoring in Nursing; Dietetics, Foods, and Nutrition; Health Education; and Physical Education.) A survey of microbes and their structure, chemical composition, cultivation, ecology, and metabolism; special emphasis on applied aspects (infectious diseases and human resistance, food and industrial microbiology, biotechnology). PREREQ: Two semesters of 100-level biology.
-
4.00 Credits
6 hours (2, lecture; 4, lab), 4 credits. Basic principles of genetics and modern developments in the field, with their theoretical and practical implications: the inheritance, structure, and mode of action of the genetic material in microorganisms, plants, and animals, including man. Laboratory work consists of preparation and examination of chromosome material and experiments with segregating characters in a variety of organisms.
