BIOL 232 - Organismal Biology

Credits: (4)
Instructional Method: Three hours lecture; three hours laboratory.
Prerequisites: A grade of “C” or better in BIOL 131 .
A phylogenetic approach to the study of organismal structure and function, with emphasis on the anatomy, physiology, and diversity of major groups of plants, animals, and selected protists and fungi. Topic include functional organization and body plans, reproduction, growth, development regulation, nutrition, and transport. Laboratory experiments and projects apply course concepts and scientific methodology to biological research questions. This is the final course in a four-course sequence intended for biology and other science majors, and serves to integrate topics and skills introduced in earlier core courses. The core sequence serves as a foundation and prerequisite for further study in biology.
