  • 4.00 Credits

    is a detailed study of functions of the human body. Emphasis is placed on homeostasis, fundamental physiological mechanisms and the coordination and integration of major body systems. Case studies are used to apply physiological principles to clinical applications. The class will meet for three hours of lecture and one three hour laboratory per week. Prerequisites: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 124/5 and CHEM 120 or CHEM 121 or CHEM 224. (IAI Course# CLS 904, NUR 904)
  • 4.00 Credits

    acquaints the student with the general characteristics of each phylum of the animal kingdom. Detailed structure and function of organ systems are studied in specific representatives of each invertebrate phylum. Laboratory investigations include analysis of local invertebrate communities. Two lecture periods and two two hour laboratory periods meet per week. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 126/7.
  • 3.00 Credits

    builds upon the knowledge of normal human structure and function gained in anatomy and physiology courses in Level I. The course begins with a discussion of the concept of health versus disease. The focus is on disease or the physiological alterations in body structure and pathological disruptions in function. These deviations are discussed using Orem's universal self care requisites as an organizing framework. The course is designed to allow the student to integrate principles and concepts of Pathophysiology into concurrent and subsequent clinical nursing courses. Prerequisites: Anatomy and Physiology, Chemistry, Microbiology.
  • 2.00 - 4.00 Credits

    examines the biology of the arthropods; the most successful group of terrestrial invertebrates. Terrestrial crustacea, myriapoda, arachnida, and insects will be covered. The emphasis will be on the taxonomy, ecology, and evolution of the spiders and insects including their impact on humans. Laboratory will be used to 1) collect, identify, and preserve specimens, and 2) to investigate arthropod behavior and physiology. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 124/5.
  • 3.00 Credits

    provides the student with an understanding of the evolution of the major organ systems of the amphioxus, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals including man. The comparison of organs is addressed with special emphasis on the evolutionary relationships between each class of chordates. BIOL 315 must be taken concurrently. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 126/7 or consent of instructor.
  • 2.00 Credits

    includes the study of the external anatomy of the amphioxus, comparison of the skeletal systems of the dogfish shark, frog, turtle, bird, and cat, as well as dissection of the dogfish shark, and cat. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher inBIOL 126/7 and concurrent enrollment in BIOL 314.
  • 4.00 Credits

    provides the student with insight into the development of vertebrates, beginning with gametogenesis, fertilization, cleavage, blastulation, gastrulation, and neurulation. Emphasis is placed on the nature of the primary organizer, induction, and organeogenesis. Three lecture periods and one two hour laboratory meet per week. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL126/7 or consent of instructor.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This is an advanced course in human anatomy. It is primarily a laboratory course involving the regional dissection of the human cadaver. Lectures covering specific regions or anatomical principles are given as appropriate. Class size is limited. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 221A and consent ofinstructor.
  • 4.00 Credits

    introduces molecular biology through a class molecular biology investigation. Techniques covered will include DNA purification, sequencing and blotting; PCR amplification; gene cloning and engineering techniques; and mRNA isolation and analysis. This class will be investigation driven with an emphasis on developing workable strategies to solving questions at the molecular level. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher in CHEM 322/3.
  • 4.00 Credits

    introduces students to the basic structural, reproductive and evolutionary patterns seen in the plant kingdom. The class will meet for three hours of lecture and one three hour laboratory per week. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 126/7 or consent of instructor.
