-
3.00 Credits
Lecture 3 hours; 3 credits. Prerequisites: BIOL 291, 292 or permission of the instructor. The basic biology of birds, their evolution, behavior, classification, and ecological relationships. Biology majors must take BIOL 422 to receive concentration credit for this course.
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
Lecture 2 hours; laboratory 4 hours; 3 credits. Prerequisites: BIOL 291, 292 or permission of the instructor. A combined lecture and field study of birds with emphasis on identification, behavior, and structure. Extensive field trips, including at least one weekend, are taken.
-
3.00 Credits
Lecture 3 hours; 3 credits. Prerequisites for 423: BIOL 293 and 303. Prerequisite for 523: course background in cell biology and genetics or permission of instructor. The molecular organization of eucaryotic cells is presented along with cell evolution, molecular genetics, the internal organization of the cell and the behavior of cells in multicellular organisms.
-
0.00 - 5.00 Credits
Lecture 3 hours; laboratory 4 hours; 5 credits. Prerequisite: BIOL 292. An introduction to the basic mechanisms by which different animals function. How organisms acquire and use energy, regulate their internal environment, circulate and exchange gases and wastes, receive and conduct information about their environment, and move and use muscles will be some of the topics covered. Emphasis will be on how organisms make changes in these basic mechanisms to deal with differing environmental conditions.
-
0.00 - 5.00 Credits
Lecture 3 hours; laboratory 4 hours; 5 credits. Prerequisites: BIOL 250, 293. The structure and function of cells, tissues and organs at both the light microscopic and ultrastructural levels.
-
3.00 Credits
Lecture 3 hours; 3 credits. Prerequisites: BIOL 250/251 or 458/558. Survey of current areas of neurobiology including evolution of the nervous system from invertebrates through primates and mechanisms of nervous system function such as sensation and biological clocks.
-
3.00 Credits
Lecture 3 hours; 3 credits. Corequisite: BIOL 292. Prerequisite: BIOL 293. An integrative approach to understanding how animals function in and respond to their natural environment. Adaptations by a variety of invertebrate and vertebrates to marine, coastal/estuarine, freshwater, terrestrial, and parasitic environments will be covered. Responses of intertidal organisms to periodic aerial and aquatic exposure, osmotic stress on crustaceans in brackish waters, sensory adaptations in freshwater fish, thermal regulation by reptiles in desert climates, and respiratory adaptation by parasites are among the topics that will be discussed.
-
0.00 - 6.00 Credits
No course description available.
-
3.00 Credits
Lecture 3 hours; 3 credits. Prerequisite for 430: BIOL 315. Prerequisite for 530: microbiology course. Examination of bacterium-host interactions with an emphasis on how bacteria cause disease, particularly the means by which the bacterium is able to circumvent host defense mechanisms.
-
0.00 - 5.00 Credits
Lecture 3 hours; laboratory 4 hours; 5 credits. Prerequisites for 431: BIOL 291, 292, junior standing or permission of the instructor. Prerequisite for 531: undergraduate ecology and evolution courses. The ecology, behavior, distribution, physiology, diversity, and evolution of mammals.
