Hereditary mechanisms of cells, individuals, and populations. Experiments and reasoning through which genetic information has been achieved will be described and analyzed. Heredity in microbes, plants, and animals is explored from the molecular, chromosomal and phenotypic points of view. Genetics is presented as unifying the study of all organisms. Prerequisite: BI102 Spring
-
4.00 Credits
Cell chemistry, structure, replication, and physiology. Bacterial, plant, and animal cells are considered with the objective of developing a conceptual model of the cell adequate to explain its operation. Prerequisite: BI211. Spring, alternate years
