This course is an introduction for students to basic concepts and unifying principles of biology. Topics covered include population, community, and ecosystems ecology, plant and animal evolution, systematics, and taxonomy. Fieldwork and laboratory are an integral part of the course.
Biology 105 is an introductory course that is more specific than 104, but still provides students with a general knowledge of biology. Biology 105 is an introductory course that prepares students to further their studies in a biology field or a science field. Biology 105 is a lecture class with slideshows. The example provided shows notes taken from a slideshow in class. We learned about fungi and the basics of it. The example shows note taking ability and listening. However, this is a fast paced lecture where the professor does not wait for everyone to finish taking their notes before moving on. The slideshows are posted online for students who would like to look at them. Anyway, with the notes I learn how to organize myself and figure out the best note taking ability options in order to write down notes quickly and write down the sum of what is important. This sample does not show much meaning or is meaningful about the course because again this is a lecture course and we learn by taking notes. This is a good course for students who are looking to move on in a health science profession or major. It prepares students for future biology and science classes.
