-
3.00 - 5.00 Credits
Provides for student investigation of information gathered on distant objects by telescope, spectrometer, radio, satellites, and other instruments. Students pursue both the knowledge and processes for acquiring knowledge of the moon, sun, planets, comets, and meteors of the solar system, distant stars, nebulae, clusters, and galaxies, and their theoretical evolution. Course can be taken for 3 credits (lecture only) or for 5 credits (lecture and lab).
-
5.00 Credits
Examines major concepts in biology-the science of life-andthe nature of science itself and includes survey of fundamental life processes by which organisms live, grow, reproduce, and interact with their environment. This course is recommended for students interested in a brief overview of biology. Laboratory is included.
-
5.00 Credits
This course surveys natural groups of vascular plants and emphasizes native and exotic species and families represented in the Pacific Northwest flora. Plant morphology, taxonomy, principles of systematics and biogeography will be introduced. Evolutionary, genetic and reproductive patterns in plants will also be studied. Laboratory is included, with field trips. Students will gain practical experience in plant identification, recognition of plant communities, and collection, preservation, and labeling of voucher specimens.
-
5.00 Credits
This course is designed to introduce the student to the discipline of Human Genetics by interweaving classical genetics concepts with major genetic "issues" including genetic diversity, the humangenome, biotechnology, and genetic disorders. Following completion of the course, students will have the tools to make informed decisions regarding the impact of genetic advances on society as well as their own personal lives. Meets the associate's degree cultural diversity requirement. Laboratory is included.
-
5.00 Credits
Introduces students to such fundamental biological principles as the cell and metabolism, then progresses through tissues to human organ systems including respiratory, circulatory, digestive, reproductive, immune and others. Also surveyed are heredity and human ecology.
-
5.00 Credits
Introduces the first course in a three-quarter sequence for science majors. Topics of study explore the form and function of plants and animals at the cellular and sub-cellular levels of organization, including the chemical basis of life, metabolism, cell biology, genetics, and molecular biology. Laboratory is included. Prerequisite: CHEM& 161 (was CHEM 151) or CHEM& 121 (was CHEM 111) or instructor permission.
-
5.00 Credits
Continues principles of biology, with emphasis upon the organismal level of organization, including a comprehensive coverage of basic anatomy and physiology of plants and animals. Laboratory is included. Prerequisite: BIOL 201 or instructor permission.
-
5.00 Credits
Explores higher levels of, organization, including the diversity of life, origins, and classification of living organisms; evolutionary theory, principles and consequences, ecology; behavior and population dynamics. Laboratory is included. Prerequisite: BIOL 202 or instructor permission.
-
5.00 Credits
Provides a study of structure and function of the human body. Units of study include the cell, tissues, skeletal system, articulations, muscular system, and nervous system. This is the first of a twocourse sequence. Prerequisite: BIOL& 170 (was BIOL 120) or equivalent, or instructor permission.
-
5.00 Credits
Continues the study of the structure and function of the human body. Units of study include endocrine, circulatory, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. Laboratory is included. Prerequisite: BIOL 221 with a C- or better, or instructor permission.
