Biology is the study of life.
Life can be studied at many different levels - from the smallest molecules that make up a cell, through the many varied combinations of cells that make up an organism, to the how organisms interact with other organisms and their environment. In this laboratory course, we are going to focus on the smaller end of the scale by analyzing the molecules and cells that make up organisms. In addition to acquiring an appreciation for the fundamentals of life, you will learn how biologists conduct scientific inquiries by you yourself performing biological experiments, acquiring and interpreting data, and finally evaluating the data for believability.
