  • BIO 128: Natural History of Selected Areas

    2.00 Credits
    College of Lake County

    This course examines a specific biogeographical area that has been selected for its unique biological communities. Organisms and ecological relationships are considered, and the effects of human activity are emphasized. Some of the areas that have been studied include the American Tropics, the Everglades, and the Appalachian Mountains. Note: This course is taught as a field course and should be considered a general education elective; it will NOT meet the CLC laboratory science requirement. Camping, backpacking, and/or canoeing may be included. Travel expenses are paid by the student. May be taken twice, but any topic only once
