Examination of a wide variety of live invertebrates with emphasis on the relationship between form and function. Observations on aspects of invertebrate structure, locomotion, feeding and other behaviors. BIO 260 must be taken concurrently.

Invertebrate animals account for the vast majority of species on earth. Although sometimes inconspicuous, invertebrates are vital members of ecological communities. They provide protein, important ecosystem services, biomedical and biotechnological products, and aesthetic value to humans. Today, many invertebrate populations are threatened by human activities. This course surveys the extraordinary diversity and importance of invertebrates, emphasizing their form and function in ecological and evolutionary contexts. BIO 261 must be taken concurrently.

The course provides a broad understanding of key concepts in plant physiology and how the environment affects plant function. Key concepts include water and nutrient uptake, growth and allocation, plant-soil interactions, and gas exchange from the leaves to ecosystems. General principles in these topics are used to develop an understanding of how interactions between plants impact plant communities and ecosystem processes. Prerequisites: BIO 150, and CHM 111 or CHM 118.

Various spatial and pictorial concepts are investigated through the oil medium. Prerequisite: 163 or permission of the instructor. A required fee of $25 to cover group-supplied materials is charged at the time of registration. Enrollment limited to 15.

This course is designed to introduce students to the many methods of inquiry used for research in interdisciplinary fields such as Afro-American studies. Guided by a general research topic or theme, students are exposed to different methods for asking questions and gathering evidence. Using theories and conceptualizations of the African diaspora as a case study, this course gives students an introduction to and practice in the tools of intellectual investigation in the study of black history and culture/ racial formations in the United States and internationally.
