4.00 Credits
An introductory two-semester course that presents the basic principles and processes of biological science. The first semester includes the structure and function of the cell, cellular metabolism, cell reproduction, plant physiology, genetics and molecular biology. The second semester includes viral genetics, endocrinology, immunology, animal development, and the circulatory, respiratory, digestive, excretory, reproductive and nervous systems. Laboratory exercises include microscopy, cellular reproduction, enzyme activity, DNA analysis transformation, comparative studies of animal and plant cells, and vertebrate. 4 credits each.
-
4.00 Credits
A course designed to provide an understanding of the principles of human biology for the non-science student. First semester: topics include cell structure and function, cellular reproduction, genetics, nutrition and metabolism. Second semester topics include embryological development, hormonal control, blood and immunity, diseases, and the nervous system. Selected readings and class discussions are an integral part of the course. (Lecture and laboratory). 4 credits each.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide an understanding of principles of human biology for the non-science student. Topics include cell structure and function, genetics and reproduction. 3 credits
-
1.00 Credits
This course is designed for pre-professional students as an introduction to a basic understanding of the structural organization of the human body starting with the tissues, integumentary, skeletal, muscular, digestive and nervous systems. The course will focus on the cellular organization and on the tissue and organ level of each system. In laboratory exercises, students study and learn structures from various available anatomical models. Not for science majors. 4 credits
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed for students who are interested in pursuing careers in healthcare, and particularly for students looking to enter the nursing field. We will learn about the cardiovascular, respiratory, urinary, endocrine and reproductive systems. Selected readings and class discussions are an integral part of the course. Lab exercises will involve observation and dissection of organisms as well as the study of charts, slides and models. 4 credits
-
2.00 Credits
An introductory course that presents the basic principles and processes of biological science. Topics include the reproductive systems, development and differentiation, hormonal and nervous control, and the immune response. 2 credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Basic principles of animal development, based primarily on development of the vertebrate body. Includes descriptive and experimental studies, readings and reports of classical experiments. (Lecture and laboratory course.) Prerequisites: BIO 101-102. 4 credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Structure and function of the cell and its organelles. Topics include membrane structure and function, organelle functions, signal transduction, cell cycle and cancer. Prerequisites: BIO 101-102. 3 credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Basic laws of heredity and their physical basis (classical genetics); structure and function of the gene (molecular genetics); and population genetics with some attention to human genetic abnormalities. The laboratory work familiarizes the student with basic techniques in genetic research including making crosses, analysis of data, recombinant DNA technology and problem solving. (Lecture and laboratory course.) Prerequisites: BIO 101-102. 4 credits.
-
2.00 Credits
A two-semester course which studies the structure and function of cells, tissues, organs and systems of the body. Emphasis is on the structural basis for function, and the coordinated functioning of all the organ systems for maintaining homeostasis. Recommended for students pursuing careers in allied health fields. (Lecture and laboratory course) .Prerequisites: BIO 101-102 or BIO 103-104. 4 credits each.
