3.00 Credits
Living World Sector. All classes. Staff. Prerequisite(s): Solid high school biology and strong high school chemistry or CHEM 001 or 101 taken concurrently. Biology Majors and Pre-Medical students should take either BIOL 101 or 121. BIOL 121 is the companion course to BIOL 124, may be taken before or after BIOL 124. Lab fee $150. (3 hrs. lec., 3 hrs. lab, 1.5 c.u.). An intensive introductory lecture and laboratory course covering the cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, and genetics of animals, bacteria, and viruses. This course is comparable to Biology 101, but places greater emphasis on molecular mechanisms and experimental approaches. Particular attention is given to the ways in which modern cell biological and molecular genetic methods contribute to our understanding of evolutionary processes, the mechanistic basis of human disease, and recent biotechnological innovations.

3.00 Credits
Bassiri. Prerequisite(s): Advanced Placement credit for BIOL 101 or 121. Students may not take both BIOL 121 and 123 for credit. Lab fee $150. (3.5 hrs. lab., 0.5 c.u.). An intensive introductory laboratory course emphasizing how molecular biology has revolutionized our understanding of cell and organism functions.
-
3.00 Credits
Robinson. Prerequisite(s): Solid high school biology or advanced placement credit for BIOL 102. BIOL 124 is the companion course to BIOL 121, may be taken before or after BIOL 121. Students may not take both BIOL 102 and 124 for credit. Lab fee $150 (1 hr. lec., 3 hrs lab., 0.5 c.u.). An intensive introductory laboratory course in organismal biology.
-
3.00 Credits
Natural Science & Mathematics Sector. Class of 2010 and beyond. Janzen. Prerequisite(s): Sophomore standing or greater. Some biology background suggested. Intensive exposure to current issues and solutions in contemporary human interactions with the environment. Global in scope, but focused on case histories. Emphasis on providing biological and sociological background for a given major environment-human interaction, and state-of-the-art suggested solutions.
-
3.00 Credits
May be counted as a General Requirement Course in Living World. Class of 2009 & prior only. Lafferty/Pohlschroder. Prerequisite(s): NURS 041 or BIOL 101 or 121 or 091 and one semester of college chemistry. May not be used in the Biology Major. Lab fee $150. Basic microbiology, including cell physiology and anatomy of micro-organisms and host-pathogen relationships.
-
3.00 Credits
Staff. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 101 and 102, or BIOL 121. Strong high school background in chemistry or CHEM 102 recommended. An introduction to protein structure, enzyme kinetics, mechanism of enzyme action and allosteric regulation of enzyme activity; introduction to cell structure and function including membrane structure, membrane receptors and signal transduction, motility, and the cell cycle.
-
3.00 Credits
Rome/Ren. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 102 or 121 or 124. The course will focus on integrative aspects of physiological function of vertebrates. Comparative, environmental and quantitative approaches will be used. Major topics include muscle, the cardiovascular system, respiration, renal function and the nervous system.
-
3.00 Credits
Living World Sector. All classes. Medina and Muzzio. Introduction to the structure and function of the vertebrate nervous system. We begin with the cellular basis of neuronal activities, then discuss the physiological basis of motor control, sensory systems, motivated behaviors, and higher mental processes. This course is intended for students interested in the neurobiology of behavior, ranging from animal behaviors to clinical disorders. Familiarity with elementary physics and chemistry may be helpful.
-
3.00 Credits
Bonini/Gallagher/Guild. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 101 or 121. This course will survey the discipline of molecular genetics. Two broad areas will be considered 1) Molecular Biology: DNA replication, transcription, translation, regulation of gene expression in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems, and genomics and 2) Genetics: basic Mendelian & molecular genetics.
-
3.00 Credits
Sniegowski/Schmidt, P. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 101 and 102, or BIOL 121. Theories and mechanisms of evolution, with emphasis on the genetic basis of evolutionary change.
