Description
Fundamental biological concepts relevant to animals, including systemics, evolution, structure, and function, cellular and molecular metabolism, reproduction, development, diversity, phylogeny, and ecology.
Laboratory activities will reinforce fundamental biological concepts relevant to animals, including systematics, evolution, structure and function, cellular and molecular metabolism, reproduction, development, diversity, phylogeny, and ecology.
Upon successful completion, students will be able to: compare and contrast the structures, reproduction, and characteristics of animals; describe the characteristics of life and the basic properties of substances needed for life; identify the principles of inheritance and solve classical genetic problems; describe phylogenetic relationships and classification schemes; identify the major phyla of life with an emphasis on animals, including the basis for classification, structural and physiological adaptations, evolutionary history, and e
