Pre-requisite: Completion of English composition I with C or better or exemption of all learning support requirements - (Only for BIO Majors) |
This class is the first part of a two course sequence for students majoring in Biology. Biology I is the first part of a two course sequence required for students majoring in Biology. Designed specifically for the Biology major, discussions will include the chemistry of macromolecules in biological systems, cell structure and function, membrane structure and function, energy and metabolism, photosynthesis, cell communication, mitosis and meiosis, DNA structure, transcription and translation. Laboratory exercises supplement the lecture material.
A student who successfully completes BIOL 2107K will:

Biology II is the second part of the two course sequence required for students majoring in Biology. The two course sequence is designed to give students a broad foundation in the biological sciences that will enable them to pursue advanced courses in the biology curriculum. The continuity and diversity of life, evolution and activities of plant and animal life and its environment will be discussed. Emphasis will be placed on the following topics: classical and molecular genetics, organic evolution, plant and animal reproduction, human anatomy and physiology, ecology and environment. Selected laboratory exercises are used to emphasize the continuity, evolution and activities of plan and animal life which includes classical and molecular genetics, organic evolution, plant and animal reproduction, human anatomy and physiology, ecology and the environment.
A student who successfully completes BIOL 2108K will:
Possess a strong foundation in the basic principles of biology and a strong framework that will enable him or her to succeed in advanced biology courses.
Course Requirements:
Online lectures, quizzes, reading assignments, and laboratory exercises.
Proctored Tests – this course requires 5 proctored tests. Students living in the Albany/Cordele area may test at the testing center at Albany State University (East, West or Cordele Campuses) – students who live outside the Albany area must arrange with their instructor for an approved proctoring site – off-site proctor approval forms are found within your course. Albany State University’s off-site proctor policy may be found in the course. This course has more stringent standards than Albany State University’s minimum requirements. Libraries, K-12 schools, and administrators are routinely denied. (Proctored testing prices vary greatly from site to site; please check your local area for proctored costs for this course.)
Additional Requirements:
Biology LabPaq: BK-2B w/lab manual purchased at LabPaq online at www.athomescience.com/index.htm ($219.00 – double check website for price variance)
Access to 600X microscope – may also be purchased at LabPaq online at www.athomescience.com/index.htm ($112.00 – double check website for price variance)

*Important! BIOL 2211K Introduction to Microbiology. IS A HYBRID (not fully online)
This course offered at Albany State University as a hybrid option with the coursework online and the Lab on campus. In order to accommodate students who must travel to campus, we typically offer a few different sections with one (long) lab a week to minimize travel time including some Saturday only labs. If traveling to our campus is not feasible for you, please contact your advisor for assistance obtaining a transient permission letter to take this course at an institution near you.
| Credits: 4 | Completion or exemption of all learning support requirements. |
This course is designed as an introductory course in human anatomy and physiology. Discussions include fundamental concepts related to the gross and microscopic structure and functional relationships of the integument, bones, muscles, nerves and endocrine organs. Laboratory exercises supplement the lecture material.
