4.00 Credits
Introduction to the evolution, diversity, ecology, physiology, and behavior of dinosaurs and other Mesozoic organisms, with a consideration of the history of their discovery and study. The laboratory and museum field trip will emphasize the use of dinosaurs for teaching biological concepts. Prerequisite: teaching certification or 18 semester hours of biological science or permission of instructor.

Principles of host-parasite interactions with an emphasis on the physiology, ecology, and evolution of protozoan, nematode, and flatworm parasites. 2 Lec. 2 Lab. CAS-D/LAB.
-
4.00 Credits
General biology of fishes: their systematics and taxonomy, anatomy, systemic physiology, ecology, zoogeography, and management. Laboratory includes methods of collection and identification; studies of selected structural, functional, and behavioral attributes of fishes; and four field trips. 2 Lec. 2 Lab. CAS-D/LAB.
-
