4.00 Credits
Introduces the study of microorganisms and bacteria in detail. Topics include morphology, physiology, and the role of bacteria in specific diseases and in the environment. There will be a brief survey of protozoa, fungi, rickettsia, and viruses. A description of the interaction of the microorganisms and the immune system is provided, and information on disinfectant and antimicrobial agent mechanisms. Three lecture hours and three laboratory hours per week. Prerequisites: A grade of C or better in BI150 or BI215; CH130 or CH150. (Offered Fall Semester.) Course Fee: $50.00
Prerequisite:
( BI150 AND CH130) OR ( BI150 AND CH150) OR ( BI215 AND CH130) OR ( BI215 AND CH150)
-
3.00 Credits
Continues the study of microorganisms with emphasis on pathogenic bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi. There will be an emphasis on pathogenic mechanisms and epidemiology. Infectious diseases will be examined as to characteristic symptoms, causative agents, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. The goal is to provide an understanding of the relationship between pathogenic microorganisms and humans or other animals. Prerequisite: A C or better in BI310.
Prerequisite:
( BI310)

4.00 Credits
Studies the mechanism and functions of vertebrate animal systems with emphasis on mammalian organisms. Topics will include: ion and water regulation; respiration; hemodynamics; digestion; neurophysiology; muscle function; endocrine and urogenital systems. Laboratory work involves instrumentation and computer simulation designed to examine the basic principles of physiology. Emphasizes the interrelationships of physiological processes and how they relate to the needs of vertebrate animals. Three lecture hours and three laboratory hours per week. Prerequisites: BI155, CH210 with a grade of C or better in each. Course Fee: $50.00 4 credits
Prerequisite:
(BI155) AND (CH210)
