Description
A concise and engaging biology text for biology majors, Understanding Biology partnered with Connect emphasizes fundamental concepts to help students better understand biology and focus on developing scientific skills.

Condensed chapters are centered on a learning path that serves to connect concepts within a chapter. The learning path begins with learning outcomes, which help students understand the core skills and concepts they should develop. Inquiry and Analysis cases help students build scientific skills, while scaffold end of chapter assessment ensures they not only grasp core concepts, but can also critically analyze and apply what they’ve learned.“Make the Connection,” a synthesis feature that ends every unit, helps students understand the connections between biological concepts, thus helping them “see” the big picture.

New Features

Every chapter opens with a Learning Path that walks through the main chapterconcepts. This helps students understand where the material fits in the context of other concepts in the chapter.

Every concept is broken down into sections that cover skills or ideas students should master. Learning objectives at the beginning of each section tell students exactly what you should be able to do by the end of the section.

Concept Review questions allow students to check their understanding before moving onto the next concept.

At the end of the chapter, each concept is assessed at three different levels. Understand, Apply, Synthesize.
