3.00 Credits
Provides students with the fundamentals of human biology, beginning with organization at the tissue level. Body systems and their interrelationships are presented on a structural, functional and homeostatic level. Skills necessary for success in future science courses will be emphasized. Laboratory activities, including the use of prepared specimens, complement classroom activities. (0885-215) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (W)
-
3.00 Credits
Develops and/or enhances knowledge and skills necessary for success in a college-level general biology course. Themes include chemistry in living systems, movement through membranes, macromolecules, metabolism and enzymes. Laboratory activities complement each theme. (Permission of instructor) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (F, S)
-
3.00 Credits
Develops and/or enhances knowledge and skills necessary for success in a college-level general biology course. Themes include molecular genetics, microevolution, cell functions, cell nutrition and regulation of homeostasis. Laboratory activities complement each theme. Successful completion of Biological Concepts I (0885-251) is suggested but not required. (0885-251 or permission of instructor) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (W)
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces basic human genetics, basic human evolution and the relationship between 21st century discoveries in genetics and current human evolution dogma. The history of scientifi c discovery in both fi elds is paired with a study of current concepts in molecular biology, and bridges between genetics and evolution are explored. This presentation/discussion/laboratory course includes topics in human reproductive history, cytology, embryology, molecular biology of the gene, the origin of life, human origins, heredity, genetic variations, population genetics, biotechnology, and Old World and New World evolutionary theory. (Permission of instructor) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (F)
-
3.00 Credits
Interactive course designed to provide students with both tools and confi - dence to become more literate in the sciences. Students select and analyze contemporary social issues and/or problems with a basis in science utilizing basic processes of scientifi c inquiry. Sample topics include the following: infectious disease processes; traditional vs. alternative medicine; biogenetics; lifestyle; euthanasia; environmental resources and management; world population trends; and stem cell research. Following a defi nition of the issue/problem, students formulate research questions and share their collective fi ndings. They then complete weekly topic summaries that articulate their positions. Topic-related laboratory exercises and community interactions provide handson lab opportunities to experience contemporary science and technology. (Permission of instructor) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (S)
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces basic human development and maturation from a multidisciplinary perspective. In this course, the fi elds of human anatomy and physiology are merged with developmental psychology for the purpose of examining the human life cycle from a holistic perspective. Changes that take place in the structure and function of the human body are studied over nine stages of the human life span. Concurrently, psychological and cognitive development are discussed, beginning with conception and ending with death processes. (Permission of instructor) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (W)
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces quantitative analysis utilizing both gravimetric and volumetric techniques. Topics include the evaluation of analytical data, gravimetric analysis, acid/base and redox titrations. Chemical hygiene and safety procedures in the laboratory are emphasized. (0885-206 or equivalent, 0884-231) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (F)
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides an introduction to the principles of organic chemistry. Topics include structure, nomenclature and properties of organic molecules. Concepts surrounding carbon chemistry and bonding, functional groups and polymers are also presented. Investigations involving data collection and qualitative and quantitative analyses provide a framework for laboratory activities. Chemical hygiene and safety procedures in the laboratory are emphasized. (0885-205 or equivalent, 0884-231) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (W)
