-
3.00 Credits
3-3-4. Prerequisite: Completion of BIOL 1010K or BIOL 2107K with a grade of C or better This course includes an overview of the diversity of the viruses, heterotrophic Bacteria, heterotrophic Protista and the Kingdom Animalia. Animal organ systems will also be studied comparatively in terms of anatomy, function and physiology; special emphasis will be placed on vertebrates.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
1-3 semester credit hours based on topic covered (topics covered will vary). Prerequisites: 4 hours of biological science, permission of instructor and chair of the division of science, math and physical education This course may consist of individual or independent work under supervision of a member of the faculty with whom specific arrangements have been made (directed reading, research, laboratory or field observation projects). The transferability of credit in this course will depend on the evaluation of the receiving institution. This course may be repeated for credit only once.
-
3.00 Credits
3-3-4. Prerequisites: Satisfactory placement scores/ENGL 0099, READ 0099, MATH 0097 BIOL 1010K constitutes the required core course for a seven to eight semester-hour laboratory science sequence. Topics to be covered include the chemical basis of cells, general cell biology and genetics, respiration and photosynthesis, patterns of inheritance, natural selection and speciation and an introduction to the major kingdoms of life. The laboratory component provides hands-on experience in analysis and evaluation of biological processes. This course provides a foundation for the non-science major in the skills of inquiry, data collection, and critical thinking while introducing the student to the basic concepts of the life sciences. NOTE: This course is a prerequisite to more specific courses designed to complete a science sequence. Credit for this course is not granted for students with credit in BIOL 2107K or BIOL 2108K.
-
3.00 Credits
3-3-4. Prerequisite: BIOL 2107K with a grade of C or better This course will explore the classification and the phylogenetic relationship of prokaryotes, protists, fungi, animals and plants. Included will be discussions on the history of evolutionary thought, speciation, population biology and ecology. Students will also be introduced to comparative vertebrae anatomy and physiology. As with BIOL 2107K, students will be required to research topics outside of the classroom. Students may not receive credit for both BIOL 2108 and BIOL 2151.
-
3.00 Credits
3-2-4. Prerequisites: High school biology or consent of the instructor; satisfactory placement scores/READ 0099, MATH 0097 See BIOL 2122K for a course description.
-
3.00 Credits
3-2-4. Prerequisite: BIOL 2121K with a grade of C or better Biology 2121K and Biology 2122K are a sequence in which the basic concepts of biology and biochemistry (cell theory, cell structure, cell metabolism and cell reproduction) are reviewed before proceeding to a detailed study of the normal histology, gross anatomy and physiology of each body system within the human organism. Emphasis is placed on homeostatic mechanisms as they relate to health and disease. Laboratory study includes examination of life-sized models, prepared tissue slides and preserved specimens with analysis of physiological processes within the student's body by EEG, ECG, EMG, and other computer-assisted analyses.
-
3.00 Credits
3-3-4. Prerequisite: BIOL 1010K or BIOL 2107K with a grade of C or better This course will investigate the evolution and phylogenetic relationships of the invertebrates. Also examined will be the anatomy and physiology of the invertebrates, the evolution and speciation of other species and the coevolution of plants and insects. This course is usually offered only once every two academic years. Consult the division chair for schedule plans.
-
3.00 Credits
3-3-4. Prerequisite: Completion of BIOL 1010K or BIOL 2107K with a grade of C or better This course includes an overview of the diversity, evolution and ecological importance of the Archaea, photosynthetic bacteria, photosynthetic Protista, fungal protests, the Kingdom Fungi and the Kingdom Plantae. Structures and tissues will also be studied comparatively in terms of their anatomy, function, physiology and adaptive significance; special emphasis will be placed on the Kingdom Plantae.

3.00 Credits
3-3-4. Prerequisite: BIOL 1010K, 2107K or 2121K with a grade of C or better; Co-requisite: BIOL 2107K, 2122K, 2151K, 2152K, 2153K or 2154K Following an overview of the classification of microorganisms, their growth requirements, metabolism and ecological roles, emphasis is given to the host-parasite relationship, potential for pathogenicity of microorganisms, defense mechanisms of the human host including extensive discussion of immunology, and the etiology and epidemiology of infectious diseases for each human body system. Laboratory work introduces the student to identification and culture techniques, transmission control mechanisms, and common clinical isolation procedures.
