An introduction to the biology of eukaryotic cells. Topics include organization of eukaryotic chromosomes; the flow of genetic information from nucleus to cytoplasm; cellular membranes and organelles; control of cell division; and signaling between cells. Contrasts between eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic microbial cells will be discussed, as well as distinctions between plant and animal cells. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hoursPrerequisite(s): BIOL 120. Prerequisite(s) or Corequisite(s): BMSC 200. Note: Students with credit for ACB 200 (discountinued course) will not receive credit for BMSC 220.
