permission of instructor.
Biology
The Biology course offerings reflect the varied degree programs
for which they are designed. Biology 1030 is a four-semester
hour
course designed for the non-science major. Biology 1030 must
be
paired with a 4-hour science course from another discipline
(ASTR,
CHEM, GEOL, PHYS, PSCI) to fulfill the 8-hour Natural Science
general education requirement. The BIOL 1110-1120 sequence
is
intended for those students having a strong background and
desiring a more in-depth survey of biology than the BIOL 1010-1020
sequence offers.
Credit toward graduation cannot be received for both courses
in any pair: (BIOL 1030, BIOL 1010); (BIOL 1030, BIOL 2010);
(BIOL
1030, BIOL 1110); (BIOL 1010, BIOL 2010); (BIOL 1010, BIOL
1110);
(BIOL 2010, BIOL 1110).
BIOL 1010 Introduction to Biology I (4) An introduction to
the
biological sciences with an emphasis on basic concepts of
the
“building blocks of life” at the molecular
and cellular levels. Functions
of cellular organelles, including synthesis, genetics, cellular
respiration, cell reproduction will be emphasized. Viruses
will be
discussed. The Kingdoms Monera, Protista, and Fungi will be
surveyed phylogenetically; Animalia and Plantae will be introduced.
Three lecture, two laboratory hours per week.
BIOL 1020 Introduction to Biology II (4) A continuation of
Introduction to Biology I with emphasis on the Kingdoms Animalia
and Plantae including tissues, morphology, evolutionary
relationships. Unifying and comparative features will be stressed.
Attention will be given to ecology and environmental issues.
PREREQUISITE: BIOL 1010. Three lecture, two laboratory hours
per
week.
BIOL 1030 Essentials of Biology (4) A one-semester course
covering selected topics in Life Science. Intended for students
whose program of study requires one semester of laboratory
science
or to be combined with one semester of ASTR, CHEM, GEOL, PSCI,
or PHYS in satisfying the general education science requirement.
(Will NOT substitute for BIOL 1010 or BIOL 1020, apply toward
a
major or minor in biology, nor satisfy any part of the pre-medical
professional curriculum.) Three lecture, two laboratory hours
per
week.
BIOL 1040 Environmental Science (4) A survey of the major
environmental issues and concerns facing our planet. From
a
background study of natural ecosystems and human population,
the
course will survey the environmental, social, and economic
consequences of energy generation, resource consumption and
pollution. Numerous local field trips will be a major part
of the course.
Three lecture, two field/laboratory hours per week.
BIOL 1110 General Biology I (4) A comprehensive course
emphasizing cellular structure, function and metabolism; molecular
form and functioning of life; reproductive and genetic patterns.
Taxonomy is introduced and applied to a taxonomic and morphologic
survey of Monera, Protista, and Fungi Kingdoms. (This course
is
designed for the biology major/minor and satisfies the science
requirement in pre-dentistry, engineering, pre-medical technology,
pre-medicine, pre-nursing, or pre-pharmacy curricula.)
PREREQUISITE: High school Biology, or BIOL 1030; high school
Chemistry, or CHEM 1030; an acceptable placement score, or
DSPR
0800; an acceptable placement score, or DSPW 0800. Three lecture,
three laboratory hours per week.
BIOL 1120 General Biology II (4) A continuation of BIOL 1110
with emphasis on Kingdoms Animalia and Plantae in terms of
tissue
structure, comparative morphology and physiology, life patterns,
and taxonomy. Consideration will also be given to the evolutionary
and ecological interrelationships between these and all life
forms.
PREREQUISITE: BIOL 1110. Three lecture, three laboratory hours
per week.
BIOL 2010 Human Anatomy and Physiology I (4) A course
primarily designed for students in nursing, allied health,
and those
interested in biological sciences. Cell structure and physiology
tissues, integumentary system, skeletal system, muscular system,
and nervous system are studied. PREREQUISITE: An acceptable
placement score, or DSPR 0800; an acceptable placement score,
or
DSPW 0800. Three lecture, two laboratory hours per week.
BIOL 2020 Human Anatomy and Physiology II (4) A continuation
of BIOL 2010 including the cardiovascular system, lymphatic
system,
immunity, respiratory system, digestive system, metabolism,
urinary
system, endocrine system, reproductive systems, human
development, and genetics. PREREQUISITE: Completion of BIOL
2010 with a grade of "C" or better. Three lecture,
two laboratory hours
per week.
BIOL 2230 Microbiology (4) An introductory course in
microbiology which includes morphology, bacterial metabolism,
cultivation, isolation, genetics, physiology, pathogenesis,
immunity,
control of microorganisms. Bacteriological and aseptic techniques
