Introductory Biology with Lab, Part A

X19A (5 semester units in Molecular and Cell Biology)

How do cells convert nutrients into usable energy? What is the relationship between genes, chromosomes, and DNA? Learn the answers to these and other questions while building a solid foundation in the fundamental concepts of molecular and cell biology, including cell structure/function, metabolism, and genetics, as well as animal development, form, and function. Put theory into practice with "home wet lab" and virtual experiments, and explore the relation between biological issues and current topics in experimental research, biotechnology, and medicine.

Familiarity with basic chemistry is recommended but not required.
