3.00 Credits
This course will explore the science behind "new" biological advances, their potential, and their limitations. It will challenge students to explore and to critically reflect upon their personal values, beliefs, spiritualities and worldviews in the context of decision making. It utilizes an inquiry-based approach to investigate modern biological advances, relevant human issues, and the importance of informed analysis in decision making.
-
4.00 Credits
The first of a two-semester sequence exploring basic biological concepts organized around the unifying theme of energy flow. Concepts include the nature of science, ecology, cellular biology, levels of organization, and energy transfer within cells and communities. Lecture, discussion and laboratory. (Prerequisites: placement into ENG 110; placement into MATH 101 or higher; completion of MATH 101 or equivalent is recommended; BIO 151 F5 is a prerequisite for BIO 152 F5) (F)
