4.00 Credits
Introduction to the biology of microorganisms, including phylogeny and diversity, growth, metabolism, and genetics. A main objective is to gain appreciation and understanding of diversity and ubiquity of microorganisms. The course also considers the role of microorganisms in human’s lives, from ways in which they have shaped our environment to direct microbe-human interactions. The laboratory introduces basic techniques of pure culture work, enrichments and isolation, and experimentation with microorganisms. Prerequisites: CHE 1101, CHE 1110, and CHE 1102, CHE 1120. Lecture three hours, laboratory three hours.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the fundamental patterns and principles of animal growth and development at the molecular, cellular, and organismal levels. The laboratory will examine the development of selected invertebrates and vertebrates and will include experimental manipulations of developing systems. Lecture three hours, laboratory three hours.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the diverse marine habitats throughout the world and the organisms found within these habitats. Various aspects of the cellular, molecular, and developmental biology of marine organisms will be studied. The laboratory will examine selected marine invertebrates and vertebrates will include experimental manipulations. Lecture three hours, laboratory three hours. (WRITING)
-
3.00 Credits
An in-depth study of environmental problems from a systems/ecological perspective, with emphasis on the scientific basis of the problems and solutions. Topics will vary by semester but will generally include population growth; mineral water and wildlife resources; energy resources; and waste and pollution. Involves significant written assignments. Lecture three hours. Prerequisites: BIO 1802 and ENG 2001 or its equivalent. (WRITING; SPEAKING)
-
4.00 Credits
The origin, evolution, anatomy, physiology, taxonomy, and natural history of vertebrates. Lecture three hours, laboratory three hours. Prerequisites: BIO 1801 and ENG 2001 or its equivalent. (WRITING)
-
3.00 Credits
An in-depth study of the causes and consequences of air pollution throughout the world, including acidic deposition, particulates, visibility problems, and gaseous pollutants such as oxides of nitrogen and sulfur, fluorides, ozone, PAN, and carbon dioxide. The sources of these pollutants and their biological effects will be discussed, as well as their interactions with global climate change. Lecture three hours; will include field trips to experimental sites. Prerequisites: BIO 1101 and BIO 1102, and junior level standing. (WRITING; NUMERICAL DATA) (ND Prerequisite: passing the math placement test or successful completion of MAT 0010.)
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the study of evolution including a summary of the stratigraphic record, an historical summary of the earth and its major floral and faunal groups, a review of major contributions to evolutionary theory, and a summary of the factors thought to cause evolutionary change. Lecture three hours. (WRITING; SPEAKING; NUMERICAL DATA) (ND Prerequisite: passing the math placement test or successful completion of MAT 0010.)
