This general survey course deals with selected concepts and theories in biology at various scales, including the organization, function, heredity, evolution and ecology of living things. Through experiments that exemplify this content, students will understand the components of the scientific method, and sound experimental design. Biological issues with personal and social implications are introduced to allow students to make informed decisions regarding issues in daily life and society with a biological basis.

Note: Not intended for students majoring in biology or the health professions. Students enrolling in BIO100 are not required to enroll in BIO101 (lab). However, those students needing a 4 semester-hour lab science for transfer purposes may wish to concurrently enroll in BIO100 and BIO101. Recommended Coreq, BIO101 IAI, L1 900
