In this introductory course for non-science majors, students examine the fundamental principles of molecular biology, cell biology, genetics, evolution, ecology, and the scientific method. Successful students apply this knowledge to the five kingdoms of life and selected aspects of human biology. Duplicate credit will not be given for BIOL 1010. This course has lecture plus three hours lab time and fulfills a lab science requirement. Elementary education majors planning to transfer to the University of Wyoming must take the companion seminar, EDEL 1430.
