-
3.00 Credits
To carry out and bring to completion an individual research project in the areas of the Behavioral Sciences, course work includes actual testing of subjects and of hypotheses, collection of data, statistical analysis, assessing the implications of research findings for further investigation. The format of the written report will conform to the American Psychological Association guidelines. Prerequisite: BEH 07000
-
3.00 Credits
Fundamental principles covered are those underlying the study of anatomy and physiology: molecular organization of cells and their environment; cell structure and cell physiology; enzymes and metabolic pathways, and a survey of histology and the integumentary system. Laboratory sessions include the use of the microscope membrane transport phenomena and microscopic studies of human tissues. Prerequisite: Passing scores on the CUNY Reading, Writing and Mathematics FSA tests or the equivalent. NOTE: Students interested in the three semester Human Anatomy and Physiology sequence start with BIO 7 followed by BIO 11, then BIO 12. Students who have prior course work in Biological Sciences, and want to be exempt from BIO 7, may take the BIO 7 Exemption Exam. Information is available in the Department Office (S-244). Passing score permits entry directly into BIO 11.
-
4.00 Credits
A one-year, two-semester course in human anatomy and physiology. Examines complementary relationships between structure and function; dynamic aspects, integration of organs and organ systems in the maintenance of normal functioning of the whole organism. Dissections and other laboratory experiences including computer-assisted study of physiological principles. This course does not satisfy the Biology major elective requirement. Prerequisite for BIO 11: Passing scores on the CUNY/ACT in Reading and Writing and the COMPASS Math Skills Test, or BIO 01300. Prerequisite for BIO 12: BIO 11.
-
4.00 Credits
A one-year, two-semester course for students who plan to major in biological sciences, or prepare for a pre-professional program. Classroom and laboratory sessions focus on biological topics as they apply to all life, to recent scientific findings and how they advance understanding classical concepts, the interaction of environmental and biological forces to produce life. Prerequisites: Passing scores on the CUNY Reading, Writing and Mathematics FSA tests or the equivalent. Prerequisite for BIO 14 is BIO 13
-
4.00 Credits
Form, structure, classification and adaptive modifications of vertebrates, animals with backbones. Through dissections, representative vertebrates, [dogfish and cat], are studied; vertebrates' major body systems and development of various representative structures are compared; relationships between form and function, and the use of certain structure in specific environments. This course satisifes the elective creit requirement for Bio majors. Prerequisite: BIO 14
-
4.00 Credits
Embryonic development and its regulatory mechanisms will be studied in representative invertebrate and vertebrate species, including the processes of gametogenesis and fertilization. Current experimental molecular and cellular techniques and results are interwoven with the historical evidence of the subject. Microscopic studies, films, drawings, models and student experiments are used to show the major stages of development and the dynamic processes of embryogenesis.This course satisifes the elective creit requirement for Bio majors Prerequisite: BIO 14 Pre or Corequisite: CHM 11
-
3.00 Credits
The general nature of marine life including an overview of marine animals, plants, local and worldwide marine environmental issues. Basic biological principles underlying marine science, and issues of the intertidal and benthic communities, coral reefs, and oceanic pollution are discussed. Not open to Biology majors. Prerequisite: Reading at the ENG 12 level, or Department permission
-
3.00 Credits
Major normal anatomical and physiological processes unique to the human female are considered, as well as a focus on recent research about women's biology, female health issues and related illnesses. Discussion of myths and gender stereotypes about women's biology and their influence on female/male behaviors. This course does not satisfy the Biology major elective requirement.
-
3.00 Credits
Study of the origin and scientific developments of mankind from the emergence of the human species to modern times. Major scientific and technological developments are studied within the context of human culture and philosophical ideas. Presented from a biological point of view, the course draws on other disciplines as they have major impact on how humans view themselves and their effect on scientific efforts. Selected scientific writings will be examined. This course does not satisfy the Biology major elective requirement.
-
4.00 Credits
For non-science and liberal arts majors and those who plan to transfer to senior colleges. Focus is on major biological topics and principles, with emphasis on how biology influences human issues and problems. Lectures, discussions and hands-on laboratory experiences provide insight into past, present and future aspects of the diversity of life on earth. Topics considered include: genetics, ecology, evolution, and cell biology. This course does not satisfy the Biology major elective requirement.
