    Description
    As part of the Biology Majors sequence, students learn about principles and applications of the structure and function of biological molecules, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell structure and function, homeostasis, cell reproduction and its controls, molecular biology, molecular genetics, transmission genetics, cell metabolism, including photosynthesis, respiration, and viruses. Science as an ongoing process of inquiry is a theme that runs throughout this course. In addition to lecture, BIOL2 includes a laboratory.
