These courses are designed to meet specific needs of groups of students or are offered on a trial basis in order to determine the demand for and value of introducing them as part of the college curriculum.
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines the processes involved in the development of animals through study of fertilization, cleavage, gastrulation, formation of appendages, origin of organs, and the process of differentiation.
Prerequisite:
BIOL114 AND BIOL115
-
3.00 Credits
Principles of Neural Science will provide an added dimension to students interested in knowing more about the nervous system of man. This course will complement the courses in Anatomy and Physiology as well as Mechanisms of Disease.
Prerequisite:
BIOL111 AND BIOL112 AND BIOL114 AND BIOL115 AND CHEM233
-
4.00 Credits
This course deals with evolutionary and functional aspects of vertebrate anatomy. A series of vertebrates will be dissected in order to demonstrate the evolutionary development of anatomical systems. The physiological, ecological, and behavioral significance of anatomical characteristics observed in laboratory will be the topic of lecture sessions providing a synthesis of these biological disciplines within an evolutionary framework.
Prerequisite:
BIOL114 AND BIOL115
-
3.00 Credits
This course is primarily a study of the classification, general characteristics, and life cycles of the major plant divisions. The student becomes acquainted with representative mosses, liverworts, ferns, fern allies, and gymnosperms. The general ecology and economic values of the plant groups are investigated.
Prerequisite:
BIOL114 AND BIOL115
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the study of plant disease. Discussion consists of the kinds of disease in plants, the agents causing them, and factors which influence disease development with special emphasis on symptomatology and disease control.
Prerequisite:
BIOL114 AND BIOL115
-
0.00 Credits
As plants are developing and reproducing they are often subjected to environmental stress, which can be quite severe. Temperature extremes, drought, flooding, unavailability of nutrients, toxic minerals, and airborne pollutants are examples of such stress factors. This course deals with the symptoms of stress and the mechanisms by which some plants overcome these problems. Lab exercises provide experience in applying appropriatemethods to the study of stress effects and plant responses.
-
4.00 Credits
The emphasis in this course is introductory in nature; consequently, all aspects of ornithology will be discussed with an emphasis on evolution, ecology, behavior, and adaptation. In the laboratory, field identification and behavioral observation of birds of the eastern United States will be stressed through field trips to local and regional parks and refugees.
Prerequisite:
BIOL114 AND BIOL115
-
0.00 Credits
This course is a study of microscopic forms of life with emphasis upon bacteria. Special attention will be given to growth, metabolism, and control of microorganisms. Consideration is given to the relationship of microbes to health and disease. In the laboratory, techniques of isolation, staining, biochemical, characterization, and serology are stresses.
-
3.00 Credits
This course includes a study of the principles of Mendelian genetics and theories of inheritance including the chemical nature, location, organization and transfer of the information encoded in nucleic acids. Aspects of population and medical genetics are reviewed.
Prerequisite:
BIOL114
