Cells and Chromosomes

An exploration of variations on the themes of biology at the cellular level, including subcellular architecture and ultrastructure; metabolism; molecular biology; cell signaling; cellular reproduction; and an introduction into the concepts of genetics and development. Since this course will involve the examination of living systems at the molecular level, this course should only be taken after students have had at least one semester of college-level chemistry. Students should have had a successful experience in chemistry at the college level prior to taking BIOL 130.
