1.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1110/11, BIOL 1120/21, BIOL 1130/31, or equivalent; and permission of instructor. Intensive field survey of the coastal flora and fauna. Course may be repeated for credit with limit of one (1) credit toward major. (Extra fees.)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1110/11, BIOL 1120/21, BIOL 1130/31, or equivalent; and permission of instructor. An extended field-oriented ecology course (approximately three weeks camping) to outstanding biomes of North America, i.e., deserts, alpine tundra, boreal forest and prairies, involving field instruction, specimen collection, identification of organisms in their natural habitats. Some pretrip and post-trip classroom sessions. Course can be repeated for credit with limit of three credits toward degree. (Extra fees.)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1110 and one year of organic chemistry; or equivalent. Topics include cellular organization: pH and buffering. energy changes in molecular interactions. structure and characteristics of amino acids and proteins, structure/function relationships of enzymes, carbohydrates, lipids, and studies of the production, structure, and function of nucleic acids. Three hours lecture per week.
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s) or Corequisite(s): BIOL 4147/5147, or equivalent. The theory and use of lab instruments and techniques will be introduced through a series of experiments designed to explore buffering, enzyme isolation and characterization, and DNA isolation and characterization. Experiment planning and interpretation of data generated by the students will culminate in journal-style reports. One four-hour lab per week.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1110 and one year of organic chemistry; or equivalent. The metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, and nucleotides will be covered with emphasis on reactions, enzymes, energy changes, pathway regulation, and pathway integration. Production of energy-rich molecules in the cell will be linked to important cellular functions (i.e., biosynthesis, movement, and transport). Three hours lecture per week.
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s) or Corequisite(s): BIOL 4167/5167 or BIOL 4147/5147; or equivalent. The theory and use of lab instruments and techniques will be introduced through a series of experiments designed to investigate photosynthesis, electron transport, polymerase chain reactions, and enzyme kinetics. Experiment planning and interpretation of data generated by the students will culminate in journal-style reports. One four-hour lab per week.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1110/11, BIOL 1120/21, BIOL 1130/31, or equivalent; or permission of the instructor. Field and laboratory identification and ecology of plants of the Southern Appalachian environs. Sixteen hours Lecture and labs/ field per week.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1110/11, BIOL 1120/21, BIOL 1130/31, or equivalent; or permission of the instructor. Field and laboratory identification and ecology of the animals of the Southern Appalachian environs. Sixteen hours Lecture and labs/field per week.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 3100 or permission of instructor. Pattern of plant development from zygote or spore to mature plant. Emphasis on cell and tissue differentiation, organogenesis, and the influence of growth regulators. In the laboratory, students will observe morphogenesis and will design and undertake a project of their choice. Two hours lecture and four hours laboratory per week.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 1110/11, BIOL 1120/21, or equivalent. An introduction to the study of neurobiology. Topics include fundamentals of cellular communication (action potentials, synaptic transmission, synaptic integration), sensory systems, motor systems, the neural basis of behavior, developmental plasticity, and learning. Examples are drawn from invertebrates, as well as vertebrates. Four hours lecture per week.
