  • BIOL 420: Invertebrate Zoology

    4.00 Credits
    Marist College

    Four Credits LA An introduction to the most diverse organisms, animals lacking backbones, i.e., spineless creatures! Groups studied include sponges, mollusks, crustaceans, worms, starfish & kin, and arachnids, plus special emphasis on insects (the most diverse of all). Lectures emphasize morphology, including its progressive specialization, distinctive physiological, reproductive, and behavioral features, and ecology, especially in regard to feeding. Lab includes dissections, observations of preserved and living specimens, insect-collecting field trips, preparation of an insect collection, and term-long study of a species of each student's interest .Three-hour lecture, three-hour laboratory per week.
