5.00 Credits
Introduction to biology for majors-covers basic principles in cellular and molecular biology, genetics, development, ecology, and evolution. The organization of plants and animals from cells to integrated systems is discussed and a comparison made between plant and animal phyla. Considerable class time is devoted to a study of the chemistry of living organisms, including the origin of life, the organic constituents of organisms, the chemistry of heredity, cellular respiration, and photosynthesis. Corequisite: CHE 1201. Three lecture and four lab hours per week. Lab fee. 5 credits. Fall semester; day.

Offered at St. Francis Prep for Bridge Program students. A continuation of BIO 103A. Integrated lecture and lab for three hours each week. 4 credits. Spring semester; day.
-
4.00 Credits
Fundamental life processes as exemplified in the functioning of the human organism. Integration of structure and function in the light of homeostasis is emphasized. A systems approach is utilized with the focus on normal physiology and an introduction to pathology. Systems addressed in the first semester include cells, tissues, integument, skeletal, muscle, and nervous systems. Laboratory experiments and dissections are designed to achieve this objective. This course is designed to fulfill program requirements for non-majors and the physical education major. Three lectures and three lab hours per week. Lab fee. 4 credits. Fall semester; day.

3.00 Credits
A continuation of BIO 107 with an emphasis on cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems. Three lectures and three lab hours per week. Prerequisite: BIO 107. Lab fee. 4 credits. Spring semester; day.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to biology issues in modern society. Studies of genetic issues, pollution and energy problems, ecology, effective drugs on the individual, and contemporary issues facing today's individual. Three lecture hours per week. 3 credits. Every semester
-
3.00 Credits
This lecture/laboratory is open to all students, but especially geared to Criminal Justice majors. This course focuses on the biological evidence and techniques used in forensic science. Topics include the study of evidence found at crime scenes such as blood, hair, DNA, and debris such as soil and sand, microbes, plants, insects, and other cells and tissues. Students learn about the knowledge gained from performing an autopsy with a focus on change in tissues following trauma and the sequential changes that occur in a body after death. Integrated lecture and lab for three hours each week. Biology majors may not use this course toward their major. Lab fee. 3 credits. Offered as needed.
-
3.00 Credits
A comparative lecture and laboratory study of the macroscopic anatomy of typical representatives of the classes of vertebrates. Prerequisite: BIO 104. Three lectures and three lab hours per week. Lab fee. 4 credits. Fall semester; day.
-
3.00 Credits
Major invertebrate phyla with emphasis on taxonomy, structure, physiology, and ecology; field trips to selected local areas for the collection and study of representative invertebrate forms. Laboratory dissection of representative types. Prerequisite: BIO 104. Three lectures and three lab hours per week. Lab fee. 4 credits. Offered as needed; day.
