4.00 Credits
A survey of biology for physical and occupational therapy, exercise science, and other health-related majors. Covers cell structure, cellular respiration, mitosis and meiosis, genetics, DNA structure and function, and animal physiology. Lecture: Three hours. Laboratory: Three hours. 4 credits. (F,Y)
-
4.00 Credits
A survey of biology for physical and occupational therapy, exercise science, and other health-related majors. Meets the biology requirement for environmental studies majors. Covers microevolution, macroevolution (patterns of evolution of the kingdoms, of phyla of plants and animals, and of classes of vertebrates), and ecology (general and human) at the level of populations, communities, and ecosystems. Lecture: Three hours. Laboratory: Three hours. 4 credits. (S,Y)
-
4.00 Credits
First part of a two-semester lecture-laboratory sequence for biology and other science majors that surveys the field of biology. Major emphasis is placed on cellular biology, genetics, development, and the biology of higher animals. Lecture/discussion: Three hours. Laboratory: Three hours. 4 credits. (F, Y)
-
4.00 Credits
Second part of a two-semester lecture-laboratory sequence for biology and other science majors that surveys the field of biology. Concentrates on the biology of higher plants; a study of the origin, classification, and taxonomic relationships of organisms; evolution; and ecology. Lecture/discussion: Three hours. Laboratory: Three hours. 4 credits. (S,Y)
-
4.00 Credits
Focus on the biological principles fundamental to understanding human impact on the environment. Discussion of how human activities modify the environment and how their effects can be reduced through changes in individual and societal behavior. An interdisciplinary approach ties together the political, social, economic, and ethical aspects of environmental studies with biological and chemical principles. 4 credits. (F,Y)
-
3.00 Credits
For students pursuing special laboratory projects or literature research and for teaching interns (working within the department). Discussion and/or laboratory to fit the student's needs. Course level determined by the intended degree of independence and originality of the student's work, and the extent of the student's background courses. Course may be repeated for different projects. Offered on demand only. Prerequisites: Permission of instructor. 1-3 credits.

3.00 Credits
The vast majority of species found on earth are invertebrates. These include many species used as "model systems" for developmental and genetic research, most parasites and vectors of disease, and most species studied in marine biology. This course emphasizes a "body plan" approach to studying invertebrates: exploring the different morphological and physiological solutions that the organisms have used to cope with environmental conditions and to accomplish the basic tasks necessary for survival. Evolutionary relationships among invertebrate phyla are examined using recent lines of evidence from developmental biology and molecular biology, as well as comparative morphology. Lab exercises include field trips to collect and study invertebrates of the region. Lecture: Three hours. Laboratory: Three hours. Prerequisites: BIOL 12200 or BIOL 12000. 4 credits. (F,O)
-
3.00 Credits
Intermediate course on various topics chosen by faculty members or resulting from student requests. Taught as a regular course with students attending the same classes and laboratories. Topics include some taught in the past (e.g., histology). This course may be repeated for credit when topics vary. Prerequisites: BIOL 12100-12200, or BIOL 11900-12000; permission of instructor. 2-4 credits. (IRR)
