3.00 Credits
This course will provide an introduction to the biological principles involved in human reproduction. Topics include the evolution of sex, reproductive anatomy and physiology, endocrinology, puberty, biology of gender, reproductive cycles, pregnancy, birth, fertility control, sexual disorders, and current issues in reproductive technology.
-
3.00 Credits
This course utilizes the case study method to teach about major environmental issues facing the world today. These issues include climate change; loss of biodiversity; pollution; water supply and demand; endangered species; ecological footprint; and pesticide use. Students will work together to develop skills in group learning, speaking, and critical thinking, while learning the relevance of biology and environmental issues in their daily lives.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduction to the cause, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of infectious diseases, with an emphasis on clinical considerations and real-world healthcare applications. Intended for pre-nursing majors.
Prerequisite:
BIOL 105
-
4.00 Credits
The study of fish with emphasis on identification, classification, evolution, anatomy and physiology, and ecology. Emphasis will be on South Carolina species but other important species will be included.
Prerequisite:
(BIOL 105 AND BIOL 115) OR (BIOL 107 AND BIOL 106) OR BIOL 108
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the principles of animal nutrition. General topics will include the nutritional requirements of animals, the mechanisms animals use for nutrient digestion, absorption and metabolism, and the nutrient composition and formulation of animal feeds.
Prerequisite:
(BIOL 105 AND BIOL 115) OR (BIOL 107 AND BIOL 106) OR BIOL 108
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to molecular processes of the cell. This course will explore the relationships between molecular and cellular structures and their functions, with special emphasis on proteins and nucleic acids and their roles in coordinating cellular activities. The course will lay a foundation for molecular biology focusing on the concepts of macromolecules, cell cycle, replication, gene expression, and cell communication.
Prerequisite:
(BIOL 105 AND BIOL 115) OR (BIOL 106 AND BIOL 107) OR BIOL 108
-
4.00 Credits
Structure and function of the major organs and human body systems, emphasizing their mechanisms of operation, including clinical considerations. This course is recommended for pre-nursing majors only.
Prerequisite:
BIOL 205 AND CHEM 102
-
4.00 Credits
Cellular and molecular basis of cell structure and function: chemical composition and physical properties of biological molecules; organization and function of supramolecular structures, organelles, and basic cell types; enzyme action and regulation; energetics and mechanisms of biological transport; flow of energy and information; relationships between cell and whole body functions.
Prerequisite:
(BIOL 105 AND BIOL 115) OR (BIOL 106 AND BIOL 107) OR BIOL 108 AND CHEM 201
-
4.00 Credits
How a single cell, the zygote, grows into a multicelled organism. First part of the course focuses on how cells differentiate into specialized types, move around the embryo and communicate with each other. Second part of the course focuses on how molecular mechanisms give rise to major embryonic tissues, organs and organ systems in representative organisms. Also included are discussions about birth defects, sex determination and aging.
Prerequisite:
(BIOL 105 AND BIOL 115) OR (BIOL 106 AND BIOL 107) OR BIOL 108 AND CHEM 102
-
