  • BIO 204: Introduction to Marine Biology

    3.00 Credits
    Roger Williams University

    Marine biology is the application of basic biological principles (e.g., cellbiology, physiology, biomechanics, biodiversity, behavior, ecology, etc.)to marine organisms and their environments. This course will introducemarine ecosystems with emphasis on the physiological adaptations,body types and behavioral strategies of resident species. Patterns ofdiversity will be examined taxonomically and geographically, andbiological interactions will be considered in relation to many differentspecies, including our own.
