This is a hands-on course that uses laboratory observations combined withphylogenetic tools to enable students to discover the connections that underlie classifications of organisms. Students examine bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and animals, both living and preserved (dissection of invertebrates is included). Through description and evaluation of characters, students develop the data thatthey will use in computer analysis and building of phylogenetic hypotheses (trees of relationship). Written reports and an oral presentation are required.Co-requisite: BIO 1015L, unless transfer student has already satisfied requirement in Scientific World category.
