Marine Biology is the study of living organisms within saltwater ecosystems. This course covers the anatomy, physiology, and behavior of major groups of marine organisms and investigates the biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, and microbiology of life in the sea. Marine Biology presents an evolutionary and ecological approach that emphasizes the profound interdependence among marine organisms and their adaptations to each other and to their environment. Students will study factors responsible for the relative abundance and distribution of marine species and the factors influencing biodiversity. Students will read scientific studies, interpret data, make connections, and write about marine biology topics. Prerequisites: Biology I with Lab (BIOL 1200) and Biology II with Lab (BIOL 1201) or equivalents.
