4.00 Credits
(Also CHM 376) 4 hours; 4 credits Intermediary metabolism, metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, and nucleotides. Introduction to bioenergetics and biochemical genetics. Prerequisite: BIO/CHM 370 Pre- or corequisites: PHY 150 and 151, or PHY 156, or PHY 160 and 161
-
4.00 Credits
4 hours; 4 credits The biological effects of chronic and acute exposure to ionizing and nonionizing radiation. The mechanisms underlying the events occurring during and after the interaction between macromolecules, isolated cells, organs, and entire organisms with irradiation. The effects of radiation at all levels of biological organization, and the biological basis for radiation safety practices are discussed. Prerequisite: BIO 205 Pre- or corequisites: PHY 150 and 151, or PHY 156, or PHY 160 and 161
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours; 3 credits Pharmacodynamics of medicinal substances with respect to advanced receptor mechanisms and the action-effect sequence of drug activity. Emphasis is on the correlation between drug structure, pharmacologic activity, and the effect of drugs. Not credited toward the Biology major. Prerequisites: BIO 350 and 351 or BIO 332; CHM 110 and 111 or CHM 141 and CHM 121
-
4.00 Credits
(Also MTH 415) 4 hours; 4 credits This course will address the growing interaction between mathematics and the biological sciences and will provide a practical context for the mathematical description and analysis of biological processes. The emphasis will be on the construction and analysis of models consistent with empirical data. Biological problems in ecology and conservation, epidemiology, cell biology, and neuroscience will be used to illustrate the equations, including especially nonlinear equations. The computer program MATLAB will be used extensively. Prerequisites: MTH 230 and MTH 231 or equivalent; MTH 229, and one BIO 300-level course
-
3.00 Credits
3 class hours, 3 laboratory hours; 4 credits Role of major endocrine glands (including neuroendocrines) in cell function and metabolic pathways. Emphasis upon phylogeny and comparative physiology of the endocrine system. Pertinent methodology will be treated. Prerequisites: BIO 205, CHM 256, and one additional physiology course
-
3.00 Credits
6 laboratory hours; 3 credits Methods in the cloning, expression, isolation, and analysis of nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) and recombinant proteins; introduction to computer methods and analysis in biotechnology; DNA sequencing and sequence analysis; experimental approaches for the analysis of regulation of gene expression including transfection, report analysis, etc. Prerequisites: BIO 205, CHM 142, and CHM 127 Pre- or corequisite: BIO 327. Recommended: BIO 312, BIO 370, or BIO 352
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours; 3 credits Overview of theoretical and computational methods in bioinformatics with an emphasis on the application of algorithms and use of statistical methods in nucleic acid and protein sequence analysis. Emphasis on the mathematical basis of sequence alignment including database searches using Smith-Waterman dynamic programming, pair-wise sequence alignment using dynamic programming and scoring matrices, and multiple sequence alignment using hidden Markov model and genetic algorithms. Prerequisites: BIO 326, BIO 272 or MTH 214 and MTH 230 or MTH 231 or MTH 235
-
3.00 Credits
3 class hours, 3 laboratory hours; 4 credits Examination of the basic physiological processes common to all vascular plants. Topics covered include cell structure and function, water transport, transpiration, photosynthesis, solute translocation, nutrient uptake, mineral nutrition, phytohormones, plant tropisms, growth, development, and reproduction. Laboratory exercises will include plant cells, water relations, tissue culture, photosynthesis, phytohormones, reproduction, competition, and symbiosis. Prerequisite: BIO 205 or BIO 228 Pre- or corequisite: CHM 250
-
