BIOL 237 - Integrative Biological Systems


4 Credits
This course features how biological interactions occur both within and across multiple levels (molecular, cellular, organismal, community, ecosystem, and biosphere) using multiple techniques (experimental, theoretical, etc.). It is important to understand that living organisms and systems are part of integrated systems instead of isolated parts. Students will be able to:

  • Demonstrate the difference between structural, compositional, and functional aspects of biological systems
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the impact that humans have within specific scales of living systems
  • Demonstrate their understanding of the interaction between abiotic and biotic components of biological systems

Three hours lecture. Two hours laboratory. Laboratory fee: $75.
Prerequisite(s): BIOL 117 - Introduction to Evolution and Kingdoms  and BIOL 205 - Introduction to Cellular and Molecular Biology  or BIOL 110 - General Biology  or a transfer of a full year of introductory Biology
Corequisite(s): BIOL 117 - Introduction to Evolution and Kingdoms  can be taken at the same time with permission of advisor.
