BIO 103Human Ecology

The course explores the dynamic balance within the ecosphere. The flow of energy and mineral resources is examined in natural and human systems, and human impacts on this natural balance and flow of resources are studied. Social causes and solutions to ecological insults are also investigated. The laboratory examines, either through experiments or field study, characteristics of different ecosystems, stresses and impacts on different ecosystems, and current human actions to solve or prevent ecological problems. Notes: (1) Course specifically designed for non-science majors. (2) Fulfills SUNY-GE Natural Sciences. (3 hrs. lecture, 3 hrs. laboratory) Prerequisite: MAT007 or equivalent. Offered on: A-E-G / 4 cr. hrs.

BIO 109Plants and People

Through lectures, labs and field trips, plants are studied from three different points of view: historical, biological and ecological. From a historical point of view the course emphasizes the role of plants in human development and their importance in history and discovery, investigating how plants are used by humanity in nutrition, housing, medicine and cultural practices. From the biological point of view, the course includes basic plant biology: plant structure and function, including cell morphology, plant anatomy and elementary plant physiology. Main groups of plants are studied with emphasis on flowering plants. Emphasizes hands-on learning. Notes: (1) Course specifically designed for non- science majors. (2) Fulfills SUNY-GE Natural Sciences. (offered spring semester and sometimes summer semester only) (3 hrs. lecture, 3 hrs. laboratory)

BIO 144Forensic Biology

This course introduces biological concepts and relates them to their application in , forensic investigation and analyses of biological evidence from various crime scenes. The biological knowledge of molecular, cellular and tissue processes and their application in DNA analyses, fingerprinting, serological analyses of body fluids and other biological materials will be presented both in lecture and laboratory exercises. In addition, the role of the environment on body decomposition, the role of anthropology, entomology and plant materials in crime investigation will provide the foundation for application of organism interactions to specific forensic techniques. This course is designed for non-science and science majors. Note: Fulfils SUNY-GE Natural Sciences. (3 hrs. lecture, 3 hrs. laboratory) Prerequisite: MAT007. Offered on: A / 4 cr. hrs.
