4.00 Credits
Basic principles of the structure and function of the human body are discussed in depth for each of the organ systems. Physiology is presented from both a biochemical and organismal point of view. Basic understanding of chemistry, physics and mathematics is introduced where useful and necessary for understanding these biological phenomena. Special attention given to the application of these principles and concepts to health-related areas. A two-semester sequence (3 HRS. lecture, 3 HRS. laboratory.) Prerequisite: MAT007 and high school chemistry or CHE100 or equivalent. Recommended: high school biology, BIO101 or BIO105. Note: Fulfills SUNY General Education Requirement for Natural Sciences.

3.00 Credits
Anatomy and physiology of the eye, the orbit in which it resides and its adnexa, both gross and cellular, are discussed. Nerve supply and circulatory system of the eye are presented. Binocular vision and fusion, ocular alignment, vergences, accommodation and convergence are introduced. The physiology of vision, retinal images, psychophysiology of vision and color vision are considered. Offered on: G / 3 cr. hrs.
-
4.00 Credits
The human body as a wholly integrated, self-regulating model of functional anatomy. Introduces human structure at the cellular level and progresses to tissues, organs and organ systems. Common pathologic conditions are contrasted with normal form and function. (3 hrs. lecture, 2 hrs. laboratory.) Restricted to students in Health Information Technology. Offered on: G / 4 cr. hrs. Offered in the spring semester only.
-
3.00 Credits
Evolutionary approach to survey of animal kingdom. Topics include the origin of life, cell structure and molecular biology. Involves taxonomic study of structure and function of representatives of the major phyla as well as their ecology and life history. The vertebrate is covered in detail. Laboratory exercises parallel many of the lecture topics with emphasis on vertebrate dissection. (2 hrs. lecture, 2 hrs. laboratory.) Offered on: G / 3 cr. hrs.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to principles of basic parasitology with emphasis on identification, classification, life history, and prevention and control of internal and external parasites of economic importance to animal industry. In the laboratory, students develop routine procedures and techniques necessary to deliver accurate laboratory results in parasite examination. (2 hrs. lecture, 3 hrs. laboratory.) Offered on: G / 3 cr. hrs.
-
4.00 Credits
Comprehensive study of the basic processes in living organisms at the following levels of organization: molecules, cells, organs and organ systems, organisms and ecosystems. Evolution and ecology serve as the contexts in which bioenergetics, information transfer, biosystematics, morphology and physiology are studied. Designed for science majors. (3 HRS. lecture, 3 HRS. laboratory.) Prerequisite: MAT007 or equivalent and high school chemistry or permission of instructor. Note: Fulfills SUNY General Education Requirement for Natural Sciences.

4.00 Credits
Through lectures, labs and field trips, plants are studied from three different points of view: historical, biological and ecological. From historical point of view, course emphasizes role of plants in human development and their importance in history and discovery, investigating how plants are used by man in nutrition, housing, medicine and cultural practices. From biological point of view, includes basic plant biology: plant structure and function, including cell morphology, plant anatomy and elementary plant physiology. Main groups of plants are studied with emphasis on flowering plants. Emphasizes hands-on learning. (3 HRS. lecture, 3 HRS. laboratory.) Prerequisite: MAT007 or equivalent. Notes: 1) Course specifically designed for non-science majors. 2) Fulfills SUNY General Education Requirement for Natural Sciences.

4.00 Credits
Functional aspects of natural communities and ecosystems. Relation of ecology to evolutionary ideas is stressed and the natural population in its community serves as the basic study unit. Examples largely drawn from communities of North America, Long Island in particular. Field trips emphasize identification of local life forms and their role in natural communities. Lab work investigates general ecological principles. (3 HRS. lecture, 3 HRS. laboratory.) Prerequisite: BIO101 or BIO150 or MAR105 or ENV128. Notes: 1) Intermediate course for which there is a prerequisite. 2) Fulfills SUNY General Education Requirement for Natural Sciences.
