This course is designed to help both science and nonscience majors to develop a better scientific understanding of important environmental problems facing the world today. The nature and implications of subjects such as loss of genetic variability, pollution problems, overpopulation, and the use and abuse of natural resources, will be studied. There will be an emphasis on the interrelatedness of these problems and how an understanding of environmental principles can help us to live on this planet more intelligently and more successfully.

Prerequisite: Courses taught at the level of Intermediate Algebra with a grade of "C" or higher or "Pass" or equivalent or appropriate placement based on the college’s multiple measures process.
The course provides a basic survey of major groups of organisms (Kingdoms Monera, Protista, Plants, and Animals) within a context of unifying themes of evolution and ecology. Emphasis will be on structure and function of organisms with consideration given to phylogeny, taxonomy, adaptations, and interactions among organisms and their environment. Animal behavior and select vertebrate organ systems will be included. This course is designed as one semester of a two part series (coordinating with BIOL 201) for biology/medical majors.
