BIOL 324 - Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy

(4)
A comprehensive investigation of the anatomy of representative vertebrates, including humans, at the level of general body form from phylogenetic and embryonic development. Evolution of vertebrate circulatory, respiratory, urinary, digestive, nervous, and reproductive systems are covered relative to ecology of species/classes. Application of current biological theories of development and evolution is intertwined with examination of physical form and fossil records to highlight the role of natural selection in vertebrate evolution. Offered fall semester. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 152 . Corequisite(s): BIOL-324L.
