Summary

With its distinctive investigative approach to learning, this best-selling laboratory manual encourages readers to participate in the process of science and develop creative and critical reasoning skills. Readers are invited to pose hypotheses, make predictions, conduct open-ended experiments, collect data, and apply the results to new problems. The Sixth Edition includes a new bioinformatics lab and new media references for students to explore relevant animations and exercises on the Campbell/ReeceBIOLOGY book website.Scientific Investigation,Microscopes and Cells, Diffusion and Osmosis, Enzymes, Cellular Respiration and Fermentation, Photosynthesis, Mitosis and Meiosis, Mendelian Genetics I: Fast Plants, Mendelian Genetics II: Drosophila, Molecular Biology, Population Genetics I: The Hardy-Weinberg Theorem, Population Genetics II: Determining Genetic Variation, Bacteriology, Protists and Fungi, Plant Diversity I: Nonvascular Plants (Bryophytes) and Seedless Vascular Plants, Plant Diversity II: Seed Plants, Bioinformatics, Animal Diversity I: Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Annelida, Mollusca , Animal Diversity II: Nematoda, Arthropoda, Echinodermata, Chordata, Plant Anatomy, Plant Growth, Vertebrate Anatomy I: The Skin and Digestive System, Vertebrate Anatomy II: The Circulatory and Respiratory Systems, Vertebrate Anatomy III: The Excretory, Reproductive, and Nervous Systems, Animal Development, Animal Behavior, Ecology I: Terrestrial Ecology, Ecology II: Computer Simulations of a Pond Ecosystem.For all readers interested in general biology.
