225. Physical Anthropology. (3-3). Credit 4.
Human biology to include examination of evolutionary processes acting
on human populations; human genetics; non-human primate anatomy, classification
and ecology of primates; the primate paleontological record, and human
variation and adaptation. Prerequisites: BIOL 113/123, ZOOL 107 or equivalent.
Cross-listed with ANTH 225. Credit cannot be given for both ANTH 225 and
ZOOL 225.

Prerequisites: BIOL 114, 124.
319. Integrated Human Anatomy and Physiology I. (3-3). Credit 4.
Integrated approach to cellular, neural, skeletal, muscular anatomy and
physiology; includes some histology, histopathology, radiology and clinical
correlations. Prerequisites: BIOL 113; BIOL 114 strongly recommended.
320. Integrated Human Anatomy and Physiology II. (3-3). Credit 4.
Continuation of ZOOL 319. Integrated approach to cellular, neural, skeletal,

of frog, chick and pig. Prerequisite: ZOOL 318.
388. Principles of Animal
Physiology
. (3-3). Credit 4.
Introduction to how animals function, broadly comparative in approach
and stressing the principles of function which govern the degree of adaptiveness
to the available environment; laboratory stresses techniques for monitoring
and investigating physiological mechanisms and responses to environmental
changes. Prerequisites: BIOL 113, CHEM 228.
405. Comparative Endocrinology. (3-O). Credit 3.
