COURSE DESCRIPTION
THIS IS A HYBRID COURSE: A hybrid course is where some traditional face-to-face "seat time" has been replaced by online learning activities. The purpose of a hybrid course is to take advantage of the best features of both face-to-face and online learning.
Prerequisite: BIOL 100 or BIOL 101 or high school Biology. This is the first course in a two-semester biology sequence, and is intended for science or health science majors, or students interested in more rigorous exploration of biology. This course focuses on the fundamental principles of biology, and explores the topics of scientific methodology and the nature of science, cell structure and function, foundational biochemistry, molecular biology, biological energy transformation, evolution and selection, and organismal classification and phylogeny with an emphasis on prokaryotes, protists, fungi, and plants. Three class hours and one three-hour lab weekly.
