Prerequisite: None
This course covers earth's diversity of biological organisms and systems.
The processes of life from the most basic unicellular to highly complex mammalian organisms will be presented, along with interconnections between living systems and how life evolved in greater complexity from simple beginnings.
Topics covered include cell structure and function, basic reproduction and genetics (mitosis meiosis), plant and animal structures, basic life processes (digestion, respiration, excretion, secretion, reproduction), ecology and the biosphere. |
