  • BIO 300: Ecology and Field Biology

    4.00 Credits
    Midland University

    4 credit hours Prerequisites: BIO 125. This course integrates elements of biology, mathematics, microbiology and other sciences as students study the relationships between organisms and the abiotic and biotic components of their environment. It includes an emphasis on student writing and serves as the departmental "W" course. Students conduct weekly library literature database searches to locate journalarticles that are pertinent to the current discussion topic and are required to report their findings in a one page word-processed summary each week. At least two laboratory reports of four to six pages in length, using the Council of Biological Editors format, are also required. Evaluation of papers will include style and form as well as course content. Field work includes sampling techniques commonly employed in the collection and analysis of ecological data.

  • BIO 305: Genetics

    4.00 Credits
    Midland University

    4 credit hours Prerequisites: BIO 125 This course serves as a departmental "C" course while actively developing the students' criticathinking skills in the application of current genetic knowledge and laboratory techniques to the study of inheritance in plants and animals, with special emphasis on human traits. The students conduct experiments involving interpretation, problem solving, analyses and syntheses to demonstrate molecular genetic and inheritance properties using yeast, bacteria and/or Drosophila. Laboratory exercises include classical genetic experiments with Drosophila and plants as well as molecular genetic experiments. Laboratory included.

  • BIO 310: Immunology

    3.00 Credits
    Midland University

    3 credit hours Prerequisite: BIO 215 or permission of instructor. Immunology is the study of the immune response and general resistance factors that enable organisms to withstand challenges of foreign agents. Major emphasis is on the human response but important comparative immunological studies are also discussed. Topics include innate and nonspecific resistance, antigenic properties, humoral immunity (antibody diversity), cellular immunity, immunogenetics, hypersensitivity and other immunological disorders. There is no laboratory.

  • BIO 407: General Physiology

    4.00 Credits
    Midland University

    4 credit hours Prerequisites: BIO 211, and CHE 104 or 122, or permission of instructor. This course serves as a departmental "C" course as students study the metabolic functions ofanimals emphasizing the chemical and physical mechanisms that operate in living organisms at all levels. The students also note the evolutionary adaptations that enable organisms to overcome environmental challenges. Critical thinking skills are developed by requiring students to evaluate research journal articles and to apply the information to the information presented in class. Discussion develops the students' ability to organize and present their ideas to others. The laboratory emphasizes the scientific method of gathering, evaluating and presenting material.
