    Description
    General Education: Cal-GETC: Area 5C An introductory laboratory course designed to familiarize students with the methods and materials of biological anthropology, and intended to be a companion course to ANTH 001 (Biological Anthropology). This course provides hands-on experience with genetics exercises as well as the skeletal materials of modern humans, non-human primates, and fossil hominins. Other topics discussed include the scientific method, sources of biological variation (with special focus on variation in humans and non-human primates) and the forces of evolution, biological classification of the primates, and non-human primate behavior. A field trip may be required.
