BIO 344 Invertebrate Morphology and Physiology
The structure and functional organization of animal-like protists and invertebrates are examined as adaptations to life in specific habitats. The current use of these organisms in applied systems, such as aquaculture, and as models to study basic biological processes is discussed. Marine organisms and parasites are emphasized. The phylogenetic relationships between taxa are also debated. Includes one three-hour laboratory per week, plus two hours arranged.
