This book reviews the more challenging material in a college-level, introductory course in biology. It is intended to supplement standard textbooks in biology, or for students who wish to review such material. '11th Hour: Introduction to Biology' is of particular use to students enrolled in a majors or non-majors introductory biology course, or students taking AP biology. It concentrates on those topics that usually give students the most difficulty, and problems/questions are rated throughout in terms of their11th hour (Malden, Mass.)BiologyGeneticsElectronic books.Biology.Genetics.570.76Wilson David L(David Louis),1943-902652MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454791203321Introduction to biology2017841UNINA
