4.00 Credits
(4 Credit Hours) An introductory biology course designed to meet the needs of students interested in transferring to a four-year institution with a major in biological science and for other students with a background and an interest in biology including pre-pharmacy, pre-medical, and pre-dental programs. Lectures focus on diversity and unity of patterns found in living organisms from the perspectives of physiology, inheritance, ecology, and evolution. Laboratory experiments and investigations enhance student learning of cognitive and laboratory skills. Three hours of lecture and three hours of lab per week. Prerequisites: College preparatory-level high school biology with a B or better or BIO 131 or BIO 152 with a C or better or permission of instructor. A Reading test score sufficient to allow placement into ENG 131 or Satisfactory (S) completion of ENG 081.
