3.00 Credits
Introductory course with emphasis on eukaryotic organisms. Classical and contemporary aspects of genetics. Prerequisite: Sophomore standing. Fall. Three 50-minute periods, one 3-hour laboratory. Staff
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to adaptive morphology, physiology, systematics, and development of selected invertebrates. Laboratory work includes anatomical, experimental, and fi eld studies. Recommended for students interested in marine biology, secondary school education, graduate school, and laboratory work. Prerequisite: Biology 112. Three 50-minute periods, one 3-hour laboratory. Mitchell
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to plant systematics and ecology. In systematics, focus is on our concept of species: patterns and sources of variation in plant populations, compatibility and breeding systems, hybridization and introgression, and polyploidy; in ecology, the nature of local plant communities and forces that shape them. Fieldwork includes sampling of plant communities, collecting and identifying specimens, visiting botanical institutions. Prerequisite: Biology 119. Two 50-minute periods, two 3-hour laboratories. Bevington
-
3.00 Credits
Nature and activities of microorganisms as seen through their morphology, physiology, genetics, biochemistry, and ecology. Special attention on the microbe as an infectious agent through investigation of host-microbe interaction, action of antibiotics, and immunological responses of host organisms to infection. Prerequisites: Biology 112 or 119 and Chemistry 113-114. Three 50-minute periods, two 3-hour laboratories. Kuserk
-
3.00 Credits
Morphology, evolution, and physiological ecology of selected groups of mammals. Field trips to zoos and museums. Prerequisite: Biology 112. Three 50-minute periods, one 3-hour laboratory. Mitchell
-
3.00 Credits
Neurological, ecological, and genetic basis of behavior, with emphasis on evolutionary mechanisms that govern acquisition of behavioral patterns. Prerequisite: Biology 100 or 112 or Psychology 120. Three 50-minute periods, one 3-hour laboratory. Kuserk
-
3.00 Credits
An applied genetics course. Review of Mendelian patterns of inheritance, chromosomal syndromes, molecular genetic implications in oncogenetics and immunogenetics, strategies of gene therapy, genetic counseling methods, and related population genetic concepts. Prerequisite: Biology 210 or permission of instructor. Kurvink
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to biochemical and physiological activities of cells. Topics include metabolic pathways, bioenergetics, enzyme kinetics, membrane structure and function, molecular biology of the gene, cell motility, and cellular differentiation. Prerequisites: Biology 112 or 119; Chemistry 113-114. Three 50-minute periods, one 3-hour laboratory. Bevington
-
3.00 Credits
Structure, function, and development of the mammalian body, with emphasis on the human. Abnormalities of organ systems. Prerequisite: Biology 112. Three 50-minute periods, one 3-hour laboratory. Mitchell
-
3.00 Credits
Focus on the structural features of the four major classes of biomolecules and the basic functions of these molecules in cells. Coverage of the fundamentals of information fl ow in biological systems, enzyme kinetics and catalytic mechanisms will set the stage for Biology/Chemistry 328 (Biochemistry II). Students will also be introduced to many of the techniques used in biochemistry laboratories and begin to learn how to investigate biochemical problems. Prerequisites: Biology 265 and Chemistry 212 or permission of instructor. Three 50-minute lectures and one 3-hour laboratory. Staff
