5.00 Credits
(Prerequisites: BIOL 141-142; lab is optional)Study of physical, chemical, and biological factors that influence the distribution and abundance of organisms and determine the relationships among organisms from the population to the ecosystem level. Three hours lecture, three hours lab.Fall only.
-
5.00 Credits
(Prerequisites: BIOL 141-142; lab is optional)This course presents an overview of the vertebrates, placing vertebrate form and function within an eco logical and evolutionary context. Much of the course is concerned with vertebrate systematics, factors governing distribution, vertebrate inter actions with both biotic and abiotic components of their environment as well as conservation and management issues. Lab fulfills a writing-intensive (W) requirement.Three hours lecture, three hours lab.Spring only.
-
