3.00 Credits
A systematic introduction to plant diversity. Interaction between plants, theories of vegetational distribution. Emphasis on higher plant taxonomy. Includes laboratory and field trips. Prerequisite: BIOL 323. (4)
-
3.00 Credits
Deals with how cells are functionally organized, enzyme kinetics and regulatory mechanisms, biochemistry of macromolecules, energy metabolism, membrane structure and function, ultrastructure, cancer cells as model systems. Laboratory includes techniques encountered in cellular research: animal/plant cell culture, cell fractionation, use of radiotracers, biological assays, membrane phenomena, spectrophotometry, respirometry. Prerequisite: BIOL 323 and one semester of organic chemistry or consent of instructor. (4)
-
3.00 Credits
Evolutionary history of the vertebrate body, introduction to embryology, and extensive consideration of the structural and functional anatomy of vertebrates. Includes laboratory dissections following a systems approach. Mammals are featured plus some observation of and comparison with human cadavers. Prerequisite: BIOL 323. (4)
-
3.00 Credits
Physiology of plant growth and development. Emphasis on seed-plants, but includes other plant groups as model systems. Topics include: photosynthesis, secondary plant metabolism including medicinal compounds, hormones, morphogenesis. Includes laboratory. Prerequisite: BIOL 323; organic chemistry recommended. (2)
-
3.00 Credits
Tissue organization and cellular details of stems, roots, and leaves of seed plants, with emphasis on development and function. Includes laboratory. Prerequisite: BIOL 323. (2)
-
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
Selected topics as announced by the department. May be repeated for credit. (1-4)
-
3.00 Credits
The embryonic and larval development of multicellular organisms (primarily animals). Examples are chosen from popular contemporary model systems, and the emphasis is on cellular and molecular aspects of development. The laboratory includes descriptive and quantitative experiments, as well as student-planned projects. Prerequisite: BIOL 323. (4)
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to molecular biology, emphasizing the central role of DNA: structure of DNA and RNA, structure and expression of genes, genome organization and rearrangement, methodology and applications of recombinant DNA technology. Laboratory features basic recombinant DNA techniques. Prerequisite: BIOL 323. (4)
-
3.00 Credits
Microscopic study of normal cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems of vertebrates. The emphasis is mammalian. This study is both structurally and physiologically oriented. Includes laboratory. Prerequisite: BIOL 323. (4)
-
3.00 Credits
Organisms in relation to their environment, including organismal adaptations, population growth and interactions, and ecosystem structure and function. Prerequisite: BIOL 323. (4)
