This program is described earlier in this College of Science section of this catalog. Interdisciplinary Programs The Zoology Department participates in the interdisciplinary Neuroscience Minor and the Urban and Regional Planning Emphasis programs. Students who wish to enroll in one of these programs should indicate their desire to do so with the program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs. (See the Interdisdplinary Programs sedion of this catalog.) ZOOLOGY COURSES - ZOOL ZOOL LS1010. Animal Biology (3) A non-major's introduction to cell biology, genetics, evolution, ecology, and animal diversity with emphasis on diversity of animal architecture and life strategies in relation to the diverse environments of Earth. The overriding theme is the process of evolution, its basis, and its implications for all animals, including humans. Three lecture/discussion hours a week. ZOOL LS1020. Human Biology (3) Survey course for non-science majors. Course content indudes basic structure and function of the human body, homeostasis, heredity, human evolution, and ecology. Implications for personal health, bioethical and environmental issues and the impad of each of these on society will be examined. Three ledure/discussion hours a week. ZOOL LS1030. The Nature of Sex (3) This course will present an overview of sexual reproduction in animals, including humans. It provides evolutionary, ecological, and behavioral perspectives on sex. Topics cover the value of sex for generating variation among individuals, breeding patterns in non- social and sodal spedes, mating systems such as monogamy and polygamy, and reproductive behavior. The relevance of this material to human reproduction is addressed. ZOOL 1110. Principles of Zoology I (4) A major's introduction to the study of genetics, inheritance, and evolutionary processes. In addition, the diversity and comparative biology of non-vertebrate animals will be examined. Three hours of lecture and one 2-hour lab a week. ZOOL 1120. Principles of Zoology II (4) A major's introduction to cellular processes and the diversity and comparative biology of vertebrate animals. Three hours of ledure and one 2-hour lab a week. Prerequisite: ZOOL 1110 or permission of instrudor. ZOOL LS1370. Principles of Life Science (3) A survey course recommended for elementary education majors. Course content includes cells, cell chemistry, genetics, plant and animal anatomy, plant and animal classification, physiology, immune systems, evolution, and ecology. Unifying concepts of all living things will be emphasized. Two lecture hours and one 3-hour lab a week. Cross-listed with BTNY and MICR LSI 370. ZOOL 1990. Zoology Orientation (1) This seminar consists of faculty, staff, and professional presentations which will inform students of potential research opportunities in the department and career possibilities in the discipline. One hour a week. This course should be taken concurrently with ZOOL 1110 or 1120. ZOOL 2100. Human Anatomy (4) Systematic study of the organs of the human body with cadaver- based laboratory. Three hours of lecture and one 2-hour lab per week. ZOOL LSI020 or HTHS 1101 strongly recommended prior to enrollment. First semester students are discouraged from registering.
