BIOL 1A: Energy & Matter (Hart & Guiton)

The purpose of this Research Guide is to support you in completing your assignments having to do with the search for, identification of, and evaluation of outside sources used in BIOL 1A.

The course BIOL 1A, Transforming Energy and Matter, is designed to give the student an introductory understanding of how energy and matter are transformed in biological systems to create and sustain life, emphasizing the relationship between structure and function in achieving these transformations.
