The non-medical aspects of microbiology also will be considered, in regard to the basic activities in interacting biological systems, as symbionts, as critical energy conversion agencies, as agents for driving biogeochemical cycles, and as experimental subjects for the discovery of basic biological principles such as intermediary metabolism and the genetic code. Prerequisites: One 8-credit CHEM sequence: CHEM 120 , CHEM 120L , CHEM 122 , CHEM 122L ; OR CHEM 207 , CHEM 207L , CHEM 209 , CHEM 209L ; AND one 4-credit BIOL lecture/lab course: BIOL 104 , BIOL 209 , BIOL 211 , or BIOL 225 AND BIOL 227 ; OR permission of instructor.
