15 courses with the subject BIOL, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
BIOL 101Introduction to Biology with Laboratory4
Introduction to plants, animals and microbes concerning cell structure and function, DNA and heredity, cell division, species diversity and history, tissue and organ systems, nutrition, reproduction, ecosystems, and the scientific method. Christian perspectives as appropriate. Three credit hours lecture with one credit hour lab.
Study of the structure and functioning of the human body including cell structure, cell function and the physiology of digestion, circulation, excretion, reproduction, and coordination in normal and disease states. Emphasis on interrelationships among systems of the human body. Discussion of the scientific method. Topics considered from a Christian perspective. Online lab exercises involve simulations and data collection to illustrate physiological functions and laboratory methods.
Online laboratory exercises involving simulations and data collection to illustrate human biological functions. Topics include experiments in physiology of cells, organs, and organ systems.
BIOL 122General Biology II (4) Cosmogony and developmental biology, diversity of prokaryotic and eukaryotic
organisms and ecology. Three credit hours lecture with one credit hour lab. BIOL 201 Human Anatomy and Physiology I (4) First of two-semester series. Structure and function of the skeletal, muscular and nervous systems, including sense organs. Three credit hours lecture with one credit hour lab.
BIOL 202Human Anatomy and Physiology II (4) Second of two-semester series. Structure and function of the
cardiovascular, immune, digestive, endocrine, and urinary systems. Three credit hours lecture with one credit hour lab. BIOL 205 Medical Terminology (3) Highly specialized medical terms used in healthcare professions, including context, clinical procedures, and abbreviations. Three credit hours lecture. BIOL 210 Nutrition (3) Basic principles of human nutrition are investigated, emphasizing the nutrients, food sources, and their use in the body for growth and health throughout life. Three credit hours lecture. BIOL 215 Introduction to Microbiology (4) The nature of microorganisms and their ability to interact with humans. Current techniques used to identify, culture, and control microorganisms. Three credit hours lecture with one credit hour lab. Prerequisites: Grade of C or better in BIOL 201 and 202. BIOL 221 Cell Biology (3) Cells are the simplest unit of life and serve as the building block of all multi-cellular organisms. This course is a study of the internal organization of the eukaryotic cell, organelle and membrane function, cell-cell signaling, cell movement, cell adhesion, the extracellular matrix. Three credit hours lecture. Prerequisites: Grade of C or better in BIOL 122. BIOL 240 Ecology (3) Fundamental principles of ecological science, including concepts of adaptation, natural selection, population and community ecology, biodiversity, and sustainability.

pathogenicity and biodiversity. Three credit hours lecture with one credit hour lab. Prerequisites: Grade of C or better in BIOL 122 or BIOL 202 and CHEM 101 or CHEM 121. BIOL 331 Genetics (4) Encompasses all things DNA and how living organisms pass their nucleic acid from parent to offspring. This course will provide a symbiosis of both the fundamental classical genetics of Mendel, where students will understand how physical and physiological traits are expressed. Three credit hours lecture with one credit hour lab. BIOL 421 Immunology (4) Physiology and genetics of the immune response: serology, cellular mechanisms and signaling, generation of diversity, immune dysfunction and diagnostics. Three credit hours lecture with one credit hour lab. 144
