-
1.00 Credits
1 lecture hour, 1 recitation hour; 1 credit; the course meets four hours per week for one-half semester This course offers an introductory survey of molecular biology, cellular metabolism, and cellular mechanisms. It is designed to run concurrently with BIO 150 Human Anatomy and Physiology I, and to provide the necessary background for the study of human anatomy and physiology. Prerequisite: BIO 106 and BIO 107 or BIO 170 and BIO 171 with a minimum grade of C or a satisfactory score on the Biology Placement Test. Corequisite: BIO 150 Note: Students planning to enter the programs in Nursing, Physical Therapy, Physician Assistant, or the Nuclear Medicine option in Medical Technology are assigned this course by the Department of Biology on the basis of scores attained on the Biology Placement Test.
