ZOO 2303 Vertebrate Zoology (3) AS BIO
PR: BSC 2010, BSC 2010L, BSC 2011, BSC 2011L. The origin, diversity, and adaptations of the vertebrates. Phylogenetic systematics (cladistics) will be used as the basis for determining evolutionary relationships of organisms. Monophyletic groupings provide a framework for examining behavior, physiology, and ecology in an explicit evolutionary context. Vertebrates common to Florida and the southeastern United States will be emphasized.
ZOO 2710C Anatomy of Chordates (4) AS BIO
PR: BSC 2010, BSC 2010L, BSC 2011, BSC 2011L. Anatomy of selected vertebrate types emphasizing evolutionary trends. Lec.-lab.
ZOO 3205C Advanced Invertebrate Zoology (4) AS BIO
PR: BSC 2010, BSC 2010L, BSC 2011, BSC 2011L. An introduction to the major invertebrate groups, with emphasis on local forms. Field work will be required. Lec.
ZOO 3713C Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy (4) AS BIO
PR: BSC 2010, BSC 2011. Anatomy of selected vertebrate types emphasizing evolutionary trends. Lec.-Lab.
ZOO 4512 Sociobiology MW (3) AS BIO
This course is restricted to seniors. Not for major’s credit. An analysis of Animal and human behavior such as sex, territoriality, and aggression in the context of evolution.
ZOO 4513C Animal Behavior (3) AS BIO
PR: PCB 3043 or PCB 3063. An introduction to comparative animal behavior (Ethology), with emphasis on communication, social use of space, and behavioral evolution.
ZOO 4603 Animal Embryology (4) AS BIO
PR: PCB 3023. Structural and functional events involved in differentiation and morphogenesis. Lec.-lab.
ZOO 4753C Histology (4) AS BIO
PR: PCB 3023 and PCB 3063. Comparative approach to the study of tissues and the relation of their structure and function. Lec.-lab.
ZOO 5235 Parasitology (3) AS BIO
PR: MCB 3020C, PCB 3023, PCB 3043, PCB 3063, ZOO 3205C, ZOO 4753C, CI. Fundamentals of animal parasitology and parasitism, the biology of selected animal parasites, including those of major importance to man.
ZOO 5456 Ichthyology (3) AS BIO
PR: Senior or GS in Biology; ZOO 2701C, CI. PCB 4674 is suggested. Evolution, systematics, structure, behavior, physiology, and ecology of fishes.
ZOO 5456L Ichthyology Lab (1) AS BIO
CR/PR: ZOO 5456 Laboratory portion of Ichthyology relating to evolution, systematics, structure, behavior, physiology and ecology of fishes.
ZOO 5463C Herpetology (4) AS BIO
PR: CI. Major aspects of amphibian and reptilian biology emphasizing fossil history, evolutionary morphology, sensory physiology, life history and reproductive behavior. Lec.-lab. Field trip.
ZOO 5555C Marine Animal Ecology (4) AS BIO
PR: PCB 3043, senior standing, CI. Investigation of energy flow, biogeochemical cycles, and community structure in marine environments. Lec.-lab.
