3.00 Credits
A study of the basic biological concepts and scientific methodology as exemplified in the study of the processes of evolution and the factors that cause evolutionary change. Influences and ramifications on the human population are also discussed. 3 sem. hrs. 3 crs.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the basic biological concepts and scientific methodology as exemplified in the study of the plant kingdom and characteristics unique to plants. Special emphasis is given to the specific uses and benefits we derive from plants, with practical input on growing plants. 3 sem. hrs. 3 crs.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the basic biological concepts and scientific methodology as exemplified in the study of the materials comprising the human diet: energy sources, vitamins, minerals, and other essential molecules, and how dietary needs reflect physiological conditions ranging from aging to exercise to disease. Prerequisite: BIOL 110. 3 sem. hrs. 3 crs.
-
4.00 Credits
The course will introduce the scientific method and philosophy of science. The student will learn about hypothesis testing, Greek and Latin terms used in Biology, and develop an understanding of biologically relevant molecules and their function in the cell. Through laboratory exercises, the student will develop skills in microscopy, the use of indicators and stains, data collection and analysis, use of scientific calculators and EXCEL for computer graphing. Co-requisite: MATH 116. 3 hrs lect. 3 hr lab. 4 crs.
-
4.00 Credits
The course will provide students with a sound working knowledge of the structure of the human body and how the various organ systems function. The relationships between structure and function will be stressed, as will the coordination of function between the different systems. Material covered includes body organization, integument, skeleton, muscles, nervous systems, and sense organs. Laboratory will deal with dissection, observation, and experimentation, and will relate to lecture material. 3 hrs. lect. 3 hrs. lab. 4 crs.
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of the first semester. Students will continue their survey of the organ systems of the body, which will include circulation, immunity, digestion, respiration, osmoregulation, hormones, reproduction, and development. Laboratory sessions will relate to material covered in lectures and will include dissection, observation, and experimentation. Prerequisite: BIOL 130. 3 hrs. lect., 3 hrs. lab. 4 crs.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the basic principles affecting all levels of life, with primary emphasis at the molecular and cellular levels. Prerequisite: Placement at MATH 116 level or the equivalent. 3 hrs. lect. 3 hrs. lab. 4 crs.
-
