BSC 2010 - General Biology 1 BSC 2010 - General Biology 1 This course will cover molecular biology, cellular biology, genetics, metabolism, and replication. This is the first course of a two-semester biology sequence designed to fulfill the needs of the student interested in a career focusing on the life sciences. It includes a study of the origins of life; cell chemistry, structure, and function; energy and metabolism; genetics; and taxonomy. A basic knowledge of atomic structure and bonding is ful and successful completion of the first term of the chemistry sequence is suggested. The course earns General Education credit under the Biological Sciences category for which students will demonstrate the skills necessary to understand and apply scientific concepts and reasoning, including the analysis and interpretation of various types of data. The lab experience is an integral part of the course. Parallel: College Transfer (A.A. and A.S)
