Studies ways in which nervous systems of both Proposed Course Description: invertebrates and vertebrates contribute to and control their behavioral repertories. Focuses on aspects of sensory physiology with brief orientation to structure and function of nervous systems. Presents analysis neural control of movement. Includes laboratory demonstrations. Prerequisite: ZOO 3115 or equivalent. Fall 2017 Proposed Term: Faculty no longer available to teach. Rationale: Action: Approve ZOO 4425 GENETIC MARKERS 3 hrs. Overview of the use of genetic, molecular markers for the Proposed Course Description: analysis of natural populations of plants and animals. Approaches from individual identification to systematics, with a core focus on populations. Prerequisite: LIFE 4000. 5425 Dual/Cross list: Fall 2017 Proposed Term: Faculty no longer available to teach. Rationale: Action: Approve ZOO 4550 WETLAND ECOLOGY, 3 hrs.
