This is a survey course for nonscience majors. Upon completion of this course, the student will demonstrate a basic understanding of how the human body functions in healthy and diseased states. Included in the course is a broad overview of human anatomy, physiology and organization. Class lecture and discussion emphasize current topics related to human health and wellness. (Prerequisite: A grade of "C" or higher in MATH 012, MATH 015or passing score in computation on Basic Skills Test, READ 095 or passing score in reading on Basic Skills Test and ENGL 095 or passing score in writing on Basic Skills Test)
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed to satisfy the requirements of health sciences programs, the needs of the pre-professional student and those who desire a deeper understanding of the human body. Through classroom and laboratory experiences, the student will be able to identify and describe the anatomy, and demonstrate an understanding of the physiology of the human body at the molecular, cellular, tissue and organ system levels. Covered in this course are the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous and digestive systems of the human body. (Prerequisites: HS Biology or a grade of "C" or higher in BIOL 105,HS Chemistry or a grade of "C" or higher inCHEM 100 or CHEM 136, and a grade of "C" or higher in MATH 021 or MATH 025or passing score in algebra on Basic Skills Test, READ 095 or passing score in reading on Basic Skills Test, and ENGL 095 or passing score in writing on Basic Skills Test)

4.00 Credits
This course is intended to meet a laboratory science requirement for the non-science major, and is a required course in the Horticulture Certificate Program. The student will become familiar with the structure and function of plant roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds. An understanding of plant diversity develops through the study of plant evolution and classification. A variety of interesting plants native to various parts of the world will be observed and discussed with emphasis on their structure, growth requirements, propagation and ecological role in the natural landscape. Laboratory activities include greenhouse projects and several field trips. (Prerequisite: Grade of "C" orhigher in MATH 012, MATH 015 or passing score in computation on Basic Skills Test, READ 095 or passing score in reading on Basic skills Test, and ENGL 095 or passing score in writing on Basic Skills Test)
-
3.00 Credits
Exploring Biology: Cycles of Life is a general study of the basic concepts of biology for the non-science major. Topics include: chemistry in life, cell structure and function, genetics, evolution, diversity of life and ecology. Topics are covered at an introductory level to provide students an overview of biological science and its relevance in the world. (Prerequisite: MATH 012 or MATH 015 or passing score in computation on Basic Skills Test, READ 095 or passing score in reading on Basic Skills Test, and ENGL 095 or passing score in writing on Basic Skills Test)
-
4.00 Credits
This course is specifically designed for individuals wishing to function as diagnostic bacteriologists in the clinical and industrial setting. The course will stress proper collection, transport, culturing and sensitivities procedures used to identify unknown potential pathogens. The proper staining, serological testing and biological analysis of bacteria will be thoroughly covered. (Prerequisite: A grade of "C" orhigher in BIOL 112)

4.00 Credits
This course is designed for science majors. Through classroom and laboratory experiences, the student will demonstrate an understanding of taxonomy, morphology, structure, function and evolution of the various invertebrate phyla of animals. Laboratory experiences will include field collection, identification, taxonomy and description of fundamental anatomical traits found within representative phyla. NOTE: This course is offered only in the Fall term. ( Prerequisite: A grade of "C" or higherin BIOL 102)
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed for the science major, pre-professional or advanced health science student. Through classroom and laboratory experiences, the student will demonstrate an understanding of the probable origins of, and be able to identify in detail, the anatomical characteristics of organisms of the phylum Chordata. Starting with the primitive Amphioxus and progressing to the complex mammals, the student will demonstrate an understanding of the ontogenic and phylogenic relationships of the three chordate subphyla and seven vertebrate classes. Laboratory experiences include detailed dissection of representative organisms. NOTE: This course is offered in the Spring term only. (Prerequisite: A grade of "C" or higher inBIOL 102 or BIOL 112)
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed for the student majoring in biology, marine studies or ecology. Through classroom and laboratory experiences, the student will be able to identify the environmental parameters of marine habitats and their effect on the distribution of marine flora and fauna. Students will collect and identify numerous representatives of local marine forms, both in the laboratory and field settings. The student will also demonstrate proficiency in the utilization of various types of equipment used to complete such tasks, and demonstrate knowledge of the anatomy, physiology and behavior of marine organisms. NOTE: This course is offered in the Summer I and III terms only. (Prerequisite: A grade of "C" or higher inBIOL 102 or ENVR 111)
