1 INSTRUCTOR INFORMATION: Name: Matt Sturgeon Telephone: Office: Room 023 Office Hours: 7:30-3:30 COURSE INFORMATION JOHNSON COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE Course Syllabus - College Now Olathe North High School Biology Division Principles of Cell & Molecular Biology BIOL Credit hours: 4 hours Course type: Transfer Prerequisites: Introduction to Biology and General Chemistry (previous high school courses) TEXTBOOK: Campbell, Biology, 10 th edition, The Benjamin/Cummings Publishing Company, Inc. SUPPLIES: 3-ring Binder Carbon Copy Lab Notebook (purchased from instructor) CAVEATS: If you drop this course at Olathe North High School, you must also do so at Johnson County Community College. Failure to do so will result in an F on your college transcript and damage to your college GPA. You should check with the college or university you hope to attend for their policies related to Johnson County transfer credit. Many factors including your declared major and geography of the university of your choice can determine if JCCC credits can transfer. Policies vary from school to school and are subject to change over time. Recently the University of Kansas changed its rules, and although Johnson County credit will count as an elective biology course, it will not qualify as the first course in any of KU s biology majors. Kansas State University is currently accepting this course in place of BIOL Principles of Biology. Please visit for more information.
2 DESCRIPTION: This is an integrated lecture and laboratory course for biology majors and students planning to take additional courses in biology. Subjects covered include basic biochemistry, cell structure and function, cellular metabolism, Mendelian and molecular genetics, natural selection and evolution, cell physiology and development of plants and animals from the single-celled stage to the embryonic stage. ENROLLMENT DEADLINES: Application submission priority deadline August 26, 2016* Enrollment deadline September 16, 2016** Last day for 100% refund September 19, 2016 Last day to withdraw without a "W" on transcript September 19, 2016 *Forms will be accepted after this deadline; however, admissions cannot guarantee they will be processed before the enrollment deadline. **COMPASS and enrollment deadline will not be extended for any reason.

Demonstration of the Proper Use of Scientific Equipment A. Use microscopes B. Make wet mounts for use in microscopes studies C. Make measurements using the metric system D. Use computer software simulation program COURSE REQUIREMENTS: An average of the four high school quarter grades will determine the final College Now credit. The following method will be used for determining these grades. Each student will take 12 unit exams and 2 semester final exams. Students will also take mid-unit quizzes. Exams and quizzes will cover all lectures, discussions, lab exercises, and reading material in this course. Students will be required to keep detailed, organized lab notebooks and to complete occasional lab write-ups. Students will also be graded on the presentation of their lab findings to their peers. Each student is required to complete additional material, which may include essay questions, quizzes, papers, homework assignments, etc. as determined by the instructor. EVALUTATION AND GRADING SCALE: Quarter grades will be determined as follows: Tests/Quizzes 40% Labs 30% Assignments 30%
5 Each quarter will be worth 45% of the semester grade, and a cumulative final will make up the remaining 10% of the semester grade. Grades will be assigned based on the following scale: A = 89.5% - 100% B = 79.5% % C = 69.5% % D = 59.5% % F = 0% % TENTATIVE COURSE SCHEDULE: First Semester Main Chapters Labs Unit 0 Introduction to Biology Unit 1 Biochemistry * Exam on Friday 9/5/16 Unit 2 Cell Biology * Exam on Wed., 9/21/16 Unit 3 Energetics * Exam on Tuesday, 10/11/16 Unit 4 Cell Reproduction * Exam on Tuesday, 11/1/16 Unit 5 Heredity * Exam on Friday, 11/18/16 Unit 6 Molecular Genetics * Material included on the Semester Final Exam on Tues., 12/13/16 1 Introduction to Biology M&M Chi 2 Lab 2 Chemical Context of Life 3 - Water and Life 4 Carbon and Molecular Diversity 5 Large Biological Molecules 8 Intro to Metabolism 6 Tour of the Cell 7 Cell Membrane and Tonicity 8 Cell Communication 9 Cell Respiration 10 - Photosynthesis 12 The Cell Cycle 13 Meiosis/Sexual Life Cycles 14 Mendel and the Gene Idea 15- Chromosomal Inheritance 16 Molecular Basis of Inheritance 17 Gene to Protein 18 Regulation of Gene Expression Enzyme Kinetics Diffusion and Osmosis Cellular Respiration Rates Photosynthesis Rates Mitosis Onion Squash lab Meiosis in Fungi Fruit Fly Genetics Online Lab Protein Synthesis Lab

Students are expected to turn in unique work that is 100% their own unless otherwise explicitly instructed. All lab group members will turn in their own reports. Graphs and figures may be similar, but it is the expectation that they be independently generated by each author for the report submitted under that person s name. All persons that
7 knowingly participate in dishonest behavior are equally guilty and may be dealt with in the same manner. I, have read and understand the provisions and expectations laid out in this syllabus. Student signature: Date:
