BIOLOGY
BIO 1134 - General Biology I
This course is designed to present the basic biological principles and concepts of life. It includes the study of the chemical basis of life; cell structure, function, and reproduction; metabolism and energy exchanges; genetics; and a taxonomical survey of the kingdoms of life. Three hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory per week. Four semester hours credit.
BIO 1144 – General Biology II
As a continuation of BIO 1134, this course covers animal anatomy and physiology with emphasis on human organ systems. Studies of nutrition, digestion, circulation, respiration, immunity, homeostasis, nervous and chemical control, and reproduction will be presented. Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week. Four semester hours credit.
A study of the representative groups of the plant kingdom, their anatomy, physiology, taxonomy, and economic importance. This course is designed to meet the needs of agriculture, forestry, education, and horticulture. Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week. Four semester hours credit.
A study of the life processes, the main principles of zoology, and the major animal phyla. This course is designed for students majoring in agriculture, forestry, education, mathematics and science, and medically related majors. Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week. Four semester hours credit.
A study of cell structure and function followed by a detailed study of the invertebrate phyla with emphasis on their anatomy and physiology. This course is designed for majors in pre-medical, pre-dental, pre-nursing, physical therapy, and pre-veterinary majors. Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week. Four semester hours credit.
A continuation of BIO 2414 with emphasis on the vertebrate classes, their major systems and genetics. Three hours lecture and two hours laboratory per week. Four semester hours credit.
