Intro Biology a (zoology)
Biology 020 is one course in a two-semester sequence required of all biology majors.
It is an introduction to the unifying concepts of life science with an emphasis on
animals. The main topics covered include the chemistry of life, cell structure and
function, energy metabolism, mechanisms and history of animal evolution, classification
and diversity of animals, comparative animal form and function, and animal ecology
and behavior. (AA/AS, CSU, UC)
