CELL BIOLOGY 313 SYLLABUS Spring 2017 Lecture: M/W 10:00am-11:15am Lab: Thursday 2:30pm-5:20pm Dr Bryan W Brendley Frank Family Science Center 134A (336) 316-2441 bbrendley@guilford.edu Office hours: Monday (6-8pm), Tuesday (1-2pm & 5:30-7pm), Wednesday (9-10am), Thursday (1:30-2:30pm), and by appointment. TEXTS: Plopper, Georage. Principle’s of Cell Biology 2nd edition . *Prerequisite BIOL 111 or 112, or permission of the instructor. Course description: Cell biology is an upper-level course aimed at familiarizing the student with life at the cellular and sub-cellular levels. The course focuses on metabolism and metabolic pathways (including respiration and photosynthesis), the study of organelles, cellular communication, and molecular biology. The information in this class will be essential for the forensic biology student as they will be amerced to understand such topics as drug action, drug metabolism, DNA identification, and heredity. Learning outcomes: At the end of the course, the student should be able to: Identify the basic parts of a eukaryotic cell Recall the functions of the organelles Label metabolic pathways within a cell Apply concepts to unknown problems dealing with cell biology Analyse data and predict the results from simulated experiments or mutations Define terms that are common in the field of cell biology Compare and contrast differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells Operate basic lab equipment Measure laboratory results at the end of specific experiments Perform basic microscopy laboratory exercises Draw cells and cellular systems visible under a light microscope Interpret test questions that ask multiple layers of understanding Solve test questions that require basic mathematical functions Prepare laboratory reports using clear, concise, and descriptive English **Remember, this syllabus is a “living” document. I have the authority to add, remove, or otherwise modify assignments, point values, exams, etc. in the interest of time and other factors. You will be notified and given due warning when a modification will occur. As the Supreme Court of the United States interprets the Constitution, so Dr. Brendley interprets this syllabus. By taking this class you agree to be bound by these terms. Biology 313 is a 4-credit hour course, which corresponds to a suggested workload of 12 hours each week. Students should expect to complete 8 or more hours of work outside of the classroom (SEE TABLE BELOW UNDER TIME DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION section) each week preparing for class, completing homework, and learning the material. Attendance at class is mandatory (see below). Download 101.5 Kb. Share with your friends:
