INFORMATION

Biology 14:
Human Biology at
Foothill College
Human
biology is an introductory biology course designed for
non-science majors. Student will
learn the basic concepts of biology
using human beings as
the model organism. The course will
begin with a basic introduction to scientific inquiry
and the field of biology. We will spend the first part of the course
studying
the concepts that are key to understanding biology including the
biochemical
nature of heredity and how the genetic material that directs our conception and
development has
provided for continuity among all species since life began on Earth. In
the
second part of the course, we will study the structure and function of
the
human body focusing on those systems that model broader biological
concepts. Finally,
we will investigate the ecological and evolutionary roles of humans as
part of
the recent history of the Earth.
