3.00 Credits
An integration of ethological and comparative psychological aspects of the evolution and development of behavior in animals. Special emphasis on such topics as biological rhythms, communication, spacing, reproduction, sensory systems, learning, and social structure. Prerequisites: BIOL 203 and BIOL 222 or permission of instructor. (Not available for credit to students who have credit for PSYC 338.) Credits: 3(3-0) Offered every fall, even years
-
3.00 Credits
Studies of the behavior and behavior patterns of animals under both controlled laboratory and natural field conditions. Emphasis is placed on observational and quantitative approaches. Prerequisites: or corequisite: BIOL 338 or permission of instructor. Credits: 1(0-3) Offered fall, even years
-
2.00 Credits
Computer and mathematical models are increasingly important tools used to understand complex biological systems. Under the guidance of biology and mathematics professors, students will work both individually and in groups to develop, analyze and present models of various biological systems ranging from disease models and diffusion processes to ecosystem dynamics. The course involves two hours of lectures and two hour computer-based laboratory. (Cross listed with MATH 340.) Prerequisites: MATH 222 and at least one of the following: BIOL 203, BIOL 222, MATH 223 or permission of the instructor. Credits: 3(2-2) Offered spring, even years and when demand is sufficient
-
3.00 Credits
Examines parasites and parasitism, emphasizing the influence of parasites on the ecology and evolution of free-living species, and the role of parasites in global public health. Prerequisites: BIOL 203 and one of BIOL 215, BIOL 241 or BIOL 242. Credits: 3(3-0) Offered spring, even years
-
3.00 Credits
A beginning and basic course dealing with the classification, morphology, physiology, exology, behavior and economic importance of insects. Prerequisites: One of the following courses: BIOL 203, BIOL 215, BIOL 230, BIOL 241, or BIOL 242. Credits: 4(3-3) Offered when demand is sufficient
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the principles and concepts of metabolism, growth, morphogenesis and differentiation in developing systems. In the laboratory, students will make observations of, and perform experiments on, a variety of developing systems, both plant and animal, demonstrating a number of fundamental events of development. Prerequisites: BIOL 300. Credits: 4(3-3) Offered every spring
-
3.00 Credits
Lectures and laboratories are concerned with the physical and chemical mechanisms underlying plant function. Topics to be considered include photosynthesis, translocation, biomass production, nitrogen assimilation, and stress effects. Prerequisites: BIOL 300. Credits: 4(3-3) Offered every spring
-
3.00 Credits
Lectures and laboratories are concerned with the mechanisms by which animals function. The prevailing theme is the biology of the whole animal. Regulative and integrative mechanisms in animal organ systems are examined. Prerequisites: BIOL 300. Credits: 4(3-3)
-
3.00 Credits
Environmental management is approached as an extension of basic ecology. The framework of study is the operation of the ecosystem and the mechanisms of its regulation of energy and material flows. Agricultural, industrial, and social activities are examined for their qualitative and quantitative effect, and the legal and educational means of controlling these effects will be examined. Particular attention will be given to critical study of land and water management practices in New York. Prerequisites: BIOL 203. Credits: 3(3-0) Offered every spring
-
3.00 Credits
A lecture-demonstration course concerned with a discussion of the principles of light and electron microscopy, the instrumentation available, and the principles involved in preparation of material for microscopy. Prerequisites: BIOL 203 or BIOL 222. Credits: 1(1-0) Offered every fall
