  • 3.00 Credits

    Forensic Biology examines the application of biological principles and techniques to legal investigations. It will include examination of human anatomy, physiology, microbiology, zoology, botany and ecology and their role in the determination of cause, time, manner and mode of death as well as other forensics applications. A weekly three hour laboratory is required. Prerequisite: BI114 or BI205 and BI 310. Credits, 4 hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    A comparative study of the Phylum Chordata, with emphasis on the Subphylum Vertebrata, in a comprehensive approach. Phylogeny, evolutionary relationships, and anatomy by systems are emphasized. Laboratory studies are designed to refine student dissection skills while illustrating lecture topics. Three hours of lecture and laboratory per week. Prerequisites: Biology 101-102 and 202 or 205. (Offered alternate years.) Lab fee. Credit, 4 hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is an in-depth study of the molecular processes and mechanisms of the eukaryotic cells. Topics will include cell morphology, histology and ultrastructure; bioenergetics; expression or genetic information in cells; cell cycle regulation; modification and transport of cellular products; cell communication and signal transduction; and molecular and cellular laboratory techniques. Prerequisite: BI101, BI 102, CH110, CH111. Lab fee. 4 hours.
  • 1.00 - 3.00 Credits

    This course explores mechanisms of genetic inheritance including molecular, Mendelian, and population genetics. Topics include DNA and RNA structure and replication; transcription; translation; mutations and mutagenesis; recombinant DNA technology; genomes; inheritance patterns; gene regulation; and methods of genetic analysis. One three hour lab per week utilizes techniques including molecular biology for the study of inheritance patterns and genetic material. (Offered alternate Fall terms.) (Formerly BI 404) Prerequisites: Biology 101 and 102. Lab fee. Credit, 4 hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    A study of plant structure and functions, this course deals with plant growth, nutrition, and metabolism, as revealed through understanding the relationships among cells, tissues, and organs of vascular plants. Three hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory per week. (Formerly BI 230) Prerequisites: BI 101 and BI 102 or permission of the instructor. Lab fee. Credit, 4 hours.
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    This course examines the interactions between organisms and their environment at the individual, population, community and ecosystem level. Laboratory and field exercises/trips will emphasize population sampling and quantitative analysis of data and environmental parameters. One four hour laboratory per week with off-campus trips for field study. (Offered alternate Fall terms) Prerequisites: Biology 101, 102, 202, and 203. BI 310 preferred. Lab fee. Credit, 4 hours.
  • 1.00 - 3.00 Credits

    This course examines cell structure and function, the effects of cellular environment, and organization of the metabolic processes within the cell. Enzyme function, regulation, and kinetics; carbohydrate, protein, lipid and mucleic acid metabolism; and integration of anabolic and catabolic processes are explored. One three hour laboratory per week will examine cells and biological molecules with emphasis on modern separation, quantitation and indentification techniques. (Offered alternate Spring terms.) (Same as Chemistry 440/440H.) Prerequisites: Biology 101 and 102 or permission of instructor. CH 303, 304. Lab fee. Credit, 3 hours.
