  • BIO 1036: Solar Powered Life:The Biology of Plants

    4.00 Credits
    Green Mountain College (Closed)

    Plants convert sun, water, and rock into food, habitat, and life itself. To a great extent, plants create our sense of place, from enchanted northern forest to southern live oak hammock. To see how plants work, this course examines structure and function from molecular to organismal levels of organization. Topics include biochemistry, cell structure, cell interactions, physiology, genetics, anatomy, morphology, reproduction, and development. Students conduct original research in the lab. This is a spring semester introductory biology course. 3 class hours / 3 laboratory hours. 4 Credits.

  • BIO 2013: Genetics of Human Behavior

    3.00 Credits
    Green Mountain College (Closed)

    Explore the fascinating genetics behind human behavior. What is the role of our genetic make-up in how we behave and interact with others Studies in twins separated at birth and many animal models described in the primary literature will be evaluated to answer these questions. Nature and nurture will be examined since both genetic and environmental influences must be considered in behavioral analyses. Functional neuro-anatomy and topics in human neuro-psychology will be introduced throughout the course as we explore the genes involved in human behavior. This course may also be taken as PSY 2014. 3 credits.

  • BIO 2015: Cell Biology

    3.00 Credits
    Green Mountain College (Closed)

    The principal goals of the class are to provide a historical context for present day understanding of cellular systems, while using classical experimentation to explore experimental design and data analysis. Content will include how energy is stored and used by cells, the three dimensional structure of proteins, the relationship between structure and function in proteins, and universal cell functions-specifically DNA replication, transcription, and translation. In the laboratory, students will learn basic techniques commonly used in scientific laboratories including: Proper use of micropipettes, microcentrifuges, preparation of stock and working solutions/buffers, generation and use of standard curves, PCR, and SDS-PAGE analysis. Student projects will include creation of a 3D protein model. Prerequisite: Either BIO1033 Winged World or BIO 1034 From Fins to Fingers, and either BIO 1035 Disease and Disorder or BIO 1036 Solar Powered Life or BIO 1037 The Four Seasons, and CHE 1021 General Chemistry I. 3 class hours / 3 laboratory hours. 4 Credits.
