    Ectothermic animals are animals whose body temperature is affected by their surroundings. This means that if the environment is cold the animal will be cold. If the environment is warm the animal will be warm. This is because the animal doesn’t have the capability of regulating its body systems to keep a constant body temperature. When an ectothermic animal is cold, its heart rate will lower. When the animal is warmer, the heart rate will raise – as long as the temperature isn’t sufficiently high to harm the animal. (Campbell, 2005)…

    • 8 Pages

    SUFFOLK COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE MICHAEL J. GRANT CAMPUS, BRENTWOOD NY BIO 150—MODERN BIOLOGY I INSTRUCTOR: DR. JAMES F. REMSEN, JR. ADDENDUM TO COURSE OUTLINE Instructor email: remsenj@sunysuffolk.edu Phone: (631) 851-6824 Office: Sagtikos 110 Office Hours Spring 2013: M Tu Th 11:00 A.M.-12:15 P.M. W 6:00-7:15 P.M. (Virtual) This addendum addresses how I run my classroom and what I expect of students above and beyond what is presented in the syllabus. I also offer tips for success in the course, and advice to help you determine if this course will meet your career goals once you complete it. Please take this information in the spirit in which it is offered: to foster a better learning environment, and to help you avoid outcomes that are not helpful to advancing your goals, whatever those may be. PREREQUISITES AND INTENDED AUDIENCE: BIO 150 is the first half of a twosemester sequence in modern biology. The course is taught at a science majors level and is intended for students who wish to enter the biological sciences, health professions, etc., or who wish to pursue bachelor’s or graduate degrees in biology or related fields. High school chemistry is the minimum prerequisite. MATERIALS: It is recommended that you buy a notebook for both lecture and lab in addition to the lecture textbook and lab manual. Try not to mix lecture and lab notes. STUDY TIPS: Ideally, you should go home and review each lecture’s notes within a day of the lecture being given, and keep this up for the whole semester. Also read the pertinent sections in the textbook. The lecture outlines I am providing you are just that, outlines. They should be used as a study guide, because only topics included in the outlines are eligible for the exams to be given. The outlines do NOT, however, contain every piece of information contained in the lectures. You need to take good notes and study your textbook as well if you wish to do well on the exams. Your goal should be to understand the material such…

    This course is a hands-on introduction to biodiversity. You will become familiar with evolutionary theory and the scientific classification scheme and accumulate practice in identifying and classifying organisms. It is imperative that you keep up with the work on a weekly basis and be prepared for class. Each week, you will be required to read the assigned modules (accessible on Blackboard under BSC2011L.allS13 in your course list) and complete an online quiz/competency check before coming to lab in preparation for the hands-on exercises. Quizzes will be posted at least one week prior to each lab. You will have one attempt ONLY to complete each quiz. The scores will be counted as part of your participation grade, with each quiz worth 15 points. This lab is SELF-DIRECTED. Your TA is here to guide you through a discovery process, not tell you what to memorize. You will only earn an A if you take the initiative to understand the concepts. Your TA will hold regular office hours in order to answer any questions that you may have.…
