BIO 2200 - Developmental Biology

4 Credit(s) Hours: 6 hrs. each semester

Embryonic development and its regulatory mechanisms will be studied in representative invertebrate and vertebrate species, including the processes of gametogenesis and fertilization. Current experimental molecular and cellular techniques and results are interwoven with the historical evidence of the subject. Microscopic studies, films, drawings, models and student experiments are used to show the major stages of development and the dynamic processes of embryogenesis.

This course satisfies the elective credit requirement for Biology Majors.
