L SC 318 - MICROBIAL PHYSIOLOGY

Hours: 5
Lecture and laboratory

The diversity of microorganisms is due to adaptations required for growth in different habitats including extremes in pH, temperature, and oxygen availability. This course is designed to explore how these organisms have adapted to thrive in these environments. Topics include bioenergetics, metabolic regulation, cell-cell signaling and response to environmental stresses. The laboratory experience will explore questions such as solute transport mechanisms and metabolic diversity for a variety of microbial organisms.
Prerequisites: L SC 202 or permission.
