  • BIOL 1030: Animal Biology

    3.00 Credits
    Snow College

    Animal biology is an introductory level course in the fundamental principles common to all life forms. Basic biological concepts including chemistry, cell structure and function, genetics, speciation, ecology and behavior will be introduced. The remainder of the course will focus on a survey of the animal kingdom followed by a comparative approach to organ systems. This course will partially satisfy Natural Sciences GE.

  • BIOL 1050: Human Biology LS

    3.00 Credits
    Snow College

    Human Biology is the study of the human species at the levels of organization from the atomic through the biosphere. Emphasis is placed on the major organ systems, health issues, genetics, evolution, and man's interaction with the environment as related to the biology of humans and the quality of life. This course is for students whose major course of study is not in the sciences. This course will partially satisfy the Natural Science GE requirement (LS). While not required, it is recommended that Biol 1055 (Human Biology Lab) is taken concurrently.
