Students are to attend two field trips, to be arranged, on weekends during the semester.
The morphology, anatomy, physiology, and taxonomy of members of the plant kingdom with emphasis on seed-bearing plants. Included are principles of plant genetics, population biology, and plant ecology. This biological science course introduces the student to the concepts and techniques of modern molecular biology. This course will prepare the student for transfer to a four-year institution or for employment in the biotechnology industry. Students explore advanced molecular biology concepts and refine lab skills as they independently conduct lab experiments on topics including DNA science, tissue culture and protein studies.
