-
1.00 Credits
Topics differ by section. Instructor: Staff
-
1.00 Credits
A first course applying mathematics to biological problems. Topics drawn from cell and molecular biology, molecular evolution, enzyme catalysis, biochemical pathways, ecology, systems biology, and developmental biology. Students in the Modeling Biological Systems Certificate Program may use this course as a substitute for Modeling Biological Systems 100S. Prerequisite: Mathematics 103 or equivalent. Instructor: Mercer
-
1.00 Credits
Broadly integrated survey of biological diversity, including the major lineages of prokaryotes, plants, protists, animals and fungi, with an emphasis on evolutionary relationships, ecological and functional anatomical features of major groups. Lectures closely coordinated with twice-weekly intensive laboratory exercises emphasizing live material to present. Required weekend field trips to distinctive habitats in North Carolina. Intended for Biology or prospective Biology majors. Prerequisite: Bio 25L or 19 or 102L, recommended. Not open to students who have taken Biology 26BL. Instructor: Motten
-
1.00 Credits
Exploration of the diversity of life by emphasizing evolutionary, structural, and functional aspects of the major lineages of bacteria, plants, protists, animals and fungi. Not open to students who have taken Biology 26AL, 26B(L), or 106L. Instructor: Manos and Cunningham
-
1.00 Credits
The structure, function and evolution of the vertebrate body. Emphasis on understanding the functional, evolutionary and developmental basis for the similarities and difference observed among living vertebrates. Laboratories examining specific problems in the evolution of major organ systems through dissection, comparison and analysis of functional data. Instructor: Smith
-
1.00 Credits
Introduction to the key concepts of ecology and policy relevant to conservation issues at the population to ecosystems level. Focus on the origin and maintenance of biodiversity and conservation applications from both the biology and policy perspectives (for example, endangered species, captive breeding, reserve design, habitat fragmentation, ecosystem restoration/rehabilitation). (Given at Beaufort.) Prerequisites: introductory biology; suggested: a policy and/or introductory ecology course. Instructors: Crowder and Orbach
-
1.00 Credits
Physical and chemical aspects of estuarine and marine ecosystems and environments. Functional adaptations of marine organisms and the role of man and society on the ecosystems. Includes field trips to local environments with an emphasis on impacted environments and their relation to societal activity and policy. For students not majoring in natural sciences. (Given at Beaufort.) Instructor: Staff
-
1.00 Credits
Principles of animal structure, from three different perspectives: (1) function; (2) development and; (3) evolution. Prerequisites: Biology 26AL or Biology 26BL or Biology 176L or equivalent course in animal diversity. Instructor: Roth
-
1.00 Credits
Human activities are fundamentally altering our landscapes and our atmosphere. The science of ecology is central to our ability to sustain populations of organisms, regional and global biodiversity, and the provision of critical ecosystem services. Course emphasizes critical analysis of ecological data and the design and interpretation of ecological experiments and models. Students will become well equipped to evaluate environmental science as it is reported in the popular press. Instructor: Morris and Bernhardt.
-
1.00 - 1.50 Credits
Physical, chemical, and biological processes of the oceans, emphasizing factors controlling distribution and abundances of organisms. The theory, methods, and limitations of biological oceanographic research. The laboratory teaches quantitative methods, experimental design, data acquisition, data processing, and data analysis and culminates in a research cruise where the students organize into a scientific party. One course (spring); one and one-half courses (summer). (Given at Beaufort) Prerequisite: AP Biology, Introductory Biology, or consent of the instructor. Instructor: Johnson
