entiation, and morphogenesis. The laboratory work consists of experimental
studies of the above procedure utilizing living frog eggs and
embryos. Prerequisite: Biology 384.
385. Parasitology (2-3). A study of parasitic protozoa and helminths, especially
those of medical importance, with emphasis on the biological
aspects such as life cycles, control and host parasite relationships.
Prerequisites: Biology 411, 412.
391. Advanced Physiology (2-3). Cellular and mammalian physiology,
with special stress on endocrines, digestion, circulation, respiration,
sensory organs, and cellular activities. Experiments illustrating fundamental
physiological processes. Prerequisites: Biology 411, 412;
general chemistry, organic chemistry and general physics.
392. Advanced Physiology (2-3). A continuation of 391 with the same
prerequisites.
394. Agrostology (1-6). A fundamental study of the characteristics of the
different genera and species of the grasses and sedges. Emphasis will
be upon the identification, classification and distribution of the southwestern
species particularly those occurring in Texas. Prerequisite:
Biology 409 or equivalent.
395. Problems in Biology. A problem course in either zoology or botany.
The problem may be either some original research in which the student
and the instructor are interested, or it may be a repetition of
important classical experiments in biology. The course is restricted
to seniors (outstanding juniors may enroll under exceptional circumstances).
Credit may be for one, two, or three hours, depending
upon the nature of the problem and the manner in which it is carried
out. Prerequisites: Senior standing and minimum of nine hours of
advanced work in biology.
10G3. Animal Ecology. Relation of animals to environment. Lectures,
readings, reports, conferences and laboratory or field work. Lecture
two hours per week, laboratory or field work four hours.
12G3. Limnology. A study of the various physical, chemical and biological
factors affecting the productivity in lakes, ponds, and marshes. Includes
the various methods of studying the static fresh water re.
gions in Texas. Lecture two hours per week, laboratory or field work
four hours.
15G2,4,6.Topics in Vertebrate Zoology (Ichthyology, Herpetology or Mammalogy).
Unit studies of fish, reptiles, and mammals. May be taken
for 2, 3, or 6 hours credit, depending upon the student's breadth of
interest.
30G3. Seminar in Biology. Staff and graduate students meet three times a
week to discuss special topics or current research in special fields.
50G3. Cytology. An intensive study of the nature, structure and activities
of the plant and animal cell with primary emphasis on relating
structure and function in the cell. Two lectures and three hours laboratory
each week.
51G3. Topics in Physiology. A problem course in a specialized field of
physiology such as endocrinology, bacterial physiology, circulation,
cellular respiration, etc. Prerequisites: Biology 391, 392. Chemistry
