BIOL 404L - Developmental Physiology Lab

Units: 1

Provides hands-on experience with experimental techniques for examining developmental physiology across a range of animal groups. Will cover techniques in how to examine, stage and rear developing animals; assess phenotypic responses to altered environmental conditions; perform ecotoxicological assays; and measure morphology and physiology. Will include multi-week experiments to assess changes in physiology during development. Statistical analyses will be performed and experimental results will be presented in written and oral forms. Field trip(s) during or outside of class may be required. BIOL 404L is dual-listed with BIOL 604L . These courses will be taught together by the same instructor. Students may not receive credit for both. Three hours of laboratory.
