4.00 Credits
This course, with Biology 1111 (0101), makes up the introductory series for Biology majors. Both courses must be completed with a grade of C or better before students will be allowed to take the second level of required courses in the Biology curriculum, Biology 2296 (2203, 0203) and 3096 (W204), without the instructors’ permission. Biology 2112 (0102) is designed to be taken in the fall of the sophomore year. This course provides an introduction to the fundamental concepts of biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology and genetics. Topics covered include the structure of important biological macromolecules, enzyme kinetics, metabolic pathways, photosynthesis, cell changes during mitosis and meiosis, DNA replication, transcription, translation and genetic analysis. Note: This is part of the introductory series for Biology majors. There are weekly laboratories. Students must pass this course with a C or better to take upper level Biology courses.
Prerequisite:
Successful completion of CHEM 1031 (C071) and 1032 (C072) or equivalent, with a grade of C or better in both semesters; and completion of MATH 1022 with a grade of C or better or placement into MATH 1041
Corequisite:
Concurrent enrollment in Organic Chemistry [CHEM 2201 (0121)] or equivalent
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the major topics and concepts of plant physiology. Discusses the structure and functions of the different parts of a plant. Focuses on water and nutrition, biochemistry and metabolism, and growth and development of plants. Note: This course can be used to satisfy the university Core Science & Technology Second Level (SB) requirement.
Prerequisite:
BOTANY 1111 (C101) and CHEM 1021-1024 (C061-C064), or BIOLOGY 1011-1012 (C083-C084)
-
3.00 Credits
Genetics of plants, including Mendelian and extranuclear genetics, quantitative genetics, and population genetics. The course also considers the basis for, and significance and preservation of plant genetic diversity. The course considers man’s impact on plant genetic diversity, including plant extinction, conservation, breeding, and biotechnology.
Prerequisite:
BOTANY 1111 (C101) or equivalent, and CHEM 1021-1024 (C061-C064) or equivalent
-
4.00 Credits
Examines the basic principles and problems of classical, biochemical, and molecular genetics. Note: Required for majors in Biology.
Prerequisite:
Completion of BIOLOGY 1111 (0101) and 2112 (0102) with a grade of C or better in each, and CHEM 2201 (0121) with a C- or better
Corequisite:
CHEM 2202 (0122)
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides an overview of ecology from the level of the individual organism to populations, communities and ecosystems. It examines the physical, chemical, and biological components of ecological interactions, and includes a comparative treatment of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Note: Required for majors in Biology entering Temple University in Fall 2005 and later.
Prerequisite:
BIOLOGY 1111 (0101) and 2112 (0102) with a grade of C or better in each, or BIOLOGY 1011 (C083) and 1012 (C084) with a grade of B or better in each
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the development and gross anatomy of the human. In the laboratory, the dissection of the cat, together with pertinent illustrations from humans and other animals, provides a comparative survey of the anatomical structure of mammals.
Prerequisite:
BIOLOGY 1111 (0101) and 2112 (0102) with a grade of C or better in each
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the fundamental techniques used in preparing tissues for microscopic examinations, followed by a detailed study of the various types of normal tissues and organs in mammals with emphasis on correlations between structure and function.
Prerequisite:
BIOLOGY 1111 (0101) with a grade of C or better
-
3.00 Credits
A survey of marine habitats, including the flora and fauna associated with estuaries, coastal and open oceans, the deep sea, and coral reefs.
Prerequisite:
BIOLOGY 1111 (0101) and 2112 (0102) with a grade of C or better
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the biology of the invertebrate phyla including insects. Demonstrations of the patterns of invertebrate evolution by consideration of morphology, behavior, development, physiology, and ecology of representative organisms.
Prerequisite:
Completion of BIOLOGY 1111 (0101) and 2112 (0102) with a grade of C or better in each
-
4.00 Credits
Animals exhibit a wide diversity of behaviors that enable successful feeding, habitat selection, navigation, communication, social interactions, reproduction, and rearing of young. This course investigates the proximate (developmental and mechanistic) and ultimate (functional and evolutionary) explanations for these behaviors. It examines how ecological and evolutionary processes shape behavior for a wide range of animal taxa in diverse ecosystems.
Prerequisite:
Completion of BIOLOGY 1111 (0101) and 2112 (0102) with a grade of C or better in each, BIOLOGY 2227 (0227) with a grade of C- or better
