-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
This course teaches basic cellular biochemistry with emphasis on DNA replication, transcription, translation, and enzyme function. The characteristics and significance of kingdoms Monera, Protista, Fungi, and Plantae are also surveyed. Three lecture hours and one two-hour lab are held each week. Prerequisite: None.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
This course gives principles of classical genetics and the major advances of the biotechnological revolution, including recombinant DNA technology, genomic sequencing, and organismal cloning. In addition, divergent theories regarding the origin and diversity of life (i.e., evolutionary vs. creation) are discussed in detail. A zoological survey concludes the lecture portion of the course and assumes central importance in the laboratory via a range of dissections. Three lecture hours and one two-hour lab are held each week. Prerequisite: BIO 114.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
This course studies the anatomy and physiology of the human body. Chemical topics include solutions and ions, acid - bases, simple organic compounds, structures and reactions of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. It also focuses on cells, tissues, physiological stress, and body systems such as skeletal, muscular, nervous and endocrine. The laboratories incorporate the use of models, specimens, and the collecting of physiological data. Three lecture hours and one two-hour lab are held each week. Prerequisites: BIO 114 and BIO 124.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
This class is a continuation of BIO 214. The anatomy and physiology of the human body with appropriate chemical concepts is included. Body systems examined include respiratory, cardiovascular, lymphatic and immune response, digestive, renal, reproductive, genetics and human development. Anatomical and physiological changes associated with aging are also studied. Laboratory activities incorporate the use of models, specimens, and the collection of physiological data on human subjects. Three lecture hours and one two-hour lab are held each week. Prerequisite: BIO 214.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
A thorough overview of bacteria, viruses, and eukaryotic microorganisms. Special consideration is given to medically important microbes, methods of microbial control, and the growing problem of antibiotic resistance. Basic immunology is also addressed. Growth, isolation and identification of microorganisms are emphases of the laboratory portion of the course. Three lecture hours and one two-hour lab are held each week. Prerequisite: BIO 114 and 124.
-
4.00 Credits
Study of the foundational concepts of prokaryotic and eukaryotic genetics, including principles of inheritance, mutations, chromosome aberrations, genetic mapping, population genetics, DNA organization, gene regulation and genomics. Prerequisites: BIO 114 and BIO 124.
-
2.00 - 3.00 Credits
A forum promoting the integration of intellectual and spiritual development for the student majoring in biology. This capstone course is taught in a seminar format, stresses the importance of interdisciplinary thinking and the formation of a thorough Christian worldview, and requires the completion of a substantial research paper/presentation. Major topics of discussion include bioethics, philosophies of science, and the relationship between science and Christianity.
-
3.00 Credits
In-depth analysis of cell architecture, the function of cellular components, and the regulation of cellular processes. Major topics include membrane structure and function, the cell cycle, signal transduction, organellogenesis, protein trafficking, and mechanisms of cellular control. Prerequisite: BIO 114 and BIO 124.
