-
4.00 Credits
Classical and modern principles of heredity. Topics include meiosis and transmission genetics; molecular genetics and gene expression; population and evolutionary genetics. Laboratories will alternate with problem-solving sessions and will include both computer based simulations and hands-on experience with model genetic systems. Emphasis on development of analytical skills.
-
4.00 Credits
Relations between organisms and their environment, including human environmental problems. Topics include populations, communities, and ecosystems.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Written preparation and oral presentation of faculty-supervised student research.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduction to the principles of plant biology covering cell biology, respiration, photosynthesis, genetics (including mitosis, meiosis, Mendelian inheritance, recombinant DNA Technology) and classification and diversity of the prokaryotes, fungi, protista, and plant kingdoms. ( NS) Contact Hour Distribution: 3 hours lecture and 1 hour lab. Comment(s): Although not required, it is recommended 111-112 be taken in sequence.
-
4.00 Credits
Topics include development of the plant body, anatomy, hormonal and environmental growth regulation, plant nutrition, regulation of water and nutrients, origin of life and mechanisms of evolution, speciation, and population genetics, ecology including dynamics of communities and ecosystems, the interaction of plants and people including origin of agriculture, the Green Revolution, and plants as medicines, a survey of current environmental issues related to plant biology and tree identification. ( NS) Contact Hour Distribution: 3 hours lecture, 1 hour lab and field trips. Comments: Although not required, it is recommended 111-112 be taken in sequence.
-
4.00 Credits
Unifying concepts and principles of biology, illustrated with diversity of life. Properties of life, molecular basis, origin of life, cells, genetics, introduction to kingdoms, origins of multicellularity, multicellular plants and animals, ideas about evolution, man's place in nature. Emphasis on common themes in living systems (e.g., metabolism, protein and nucleotide sequence similarities, morphology), phylogeny construction, fossils, and the major plant and animal groups. Writing and analysis of lab activities required. Intended for science majors. ( NS) Contact Hour Distribution: 3 hours lecture and 1 hour lab. Credit Restriction: Students receiving credit for both 101 and 102 may not receive credit for 130.
-
4.00 Credits
