Primarily for Graduates.
Course 5D: Cytology and Comparative Histology: Botany 1B,
Zoölogy 1B, and one of the advanced courses in Plant or Animal Morphology
prerequisite. This course begins with a study of the phenomena of
cell-organization and cell life in both plants and animals: this is followed
by a comparative study of the elements of structure and their embryological
140
of plant forms: the work of each student is individually assigned in great
measure. It includes practice in the more advanced methods of technic,
and a critical discussion of the microscope and its intelligent use, as means
to the ends in view. It is accompanied by the consideration of the fundamental
laws of General Biology as founded upon cytological study. Hours
by assignment: the number is not limited.
Opportunity will be afforded to individual students for further advanced
work chiefly along the lines of this course.
A biological seminar will be conducted weekly at an hour that will be
assigned at the beginning of the session, participation in which is required
of all students in courses above Botany 1B and Zoölogy 1B.
