Biology 2

The document outlines the topics to be covered over 4 quarters in a Biology 2 course. The first quarter covers cell reproduction, cancer, meiosis, gametogenesis, and accidents in cell division. The second quarter covers genetics including Mendelian inheritance, non-Mendelian inheritance, and pedigree analysis. It also covers genes and chromosomes. The third quarter covers molecular biology of the gene including DNA, replication, transcription, and translation. It also covers recombinant DNA technology and applications. The fourth quarter covers the cell including instrumentation, cell structures and functions, and cell energetics.
