Credit: 1.0 | Prerequisite: Biology

This course surveys biological history and literature, instrumentation, and current trends in biological sciences for peer review presentations. This class is designed to help budding biologists become more comfortable with scientific applications by allowing students to clarify their own ideas as they explain them to classmates and expand their critical thinking. We discuss morphology, anatomy, growth, life cycles, ecology, behavior, classification, the uses of organisms, human systems, and tissues and mechanisms of heredity and metabolism.
