3.00 Credits
One unit. Three hours of lecture weekly. This course is designed for non-science majors only. In the beginning of the course the evolutionary origins of humans are discussed. The basics of human biology are then presented at different levels of organization. The students are introduced to the basics of atoms, molecules, cells, tissues and organs. The largest part of the course addresses at an introductory level the structure and function of the different organ systems, including their importance for human health and disease. On the level of the whole organism, the students are introduced to human development and genetics. At the end, the course discusses human ecology, including the impact of humans on the environment. Offered as needed.

3.00 Credits
One unit. Three hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory weekly. The study of human anatomy and physiology. Lecture topics include animal cell structure and function, tissues, and a survey of human physiological systems. The anatomy and physiology of the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, circulatory, lymphatic, and respiratory systems are covered relative to their roles in homeostasis. Laboratory exercises demonstrate the anatomy and processes of these systems. Primarily for majors in health sciences. Not recommended as a sole course in biology to meet distribution requirements. Not open to students who have completed BI 312 or 333. Instructor's permission required. Offered fall and spring semesters.

3.00 Credits
One unit. Three hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory weekly. A course designed to familiarize students with fundamental biological principles emphasizing evolution and speciation; cell chemistry, structure and function; Mendelian and population genetics. Laboratory experiments give students hands-on experience with various aspects of evolution, cell biology, and genetics. Primarily for science majors. Not recommended as a sole course in biology to meet distribution requirements. Offered fall and spring semesters.
-
5.00 Credits
One unit. Five hours of combined lecture and laboratory weekly. This course is designed to familiarize students with the classifi cation of organisms within their respective kingdoms, as well as fundamental principles of ecology.
