Others include "Cells" alongside a cartoon cell, "Evolution" alongside a cartoon strand of DNA, and "Exploring Biotechnology" alongside a micropipette.

Exploring the Science of Life: Introduction to Biology

Seven light blue hexagons on a dark blue gradient background. The hexagons each contain a picture and text that correspond to one of the seven pathways in the Biodiversity Course cluster. From left to right, the hexagons contain: a frog on top of half of the globe alongside the text "Why Is Biodiversity Important?"; a magnifying glass peering at the Earth alongside "Where Is Biodiversity Found?"; a leaf in a test tube alongside "how Is Biodiversity Studied?"; a factory with clouds billowing out alongside "Why Is Biodiversity Threatened?"; a tree within a shield alongside "How Can Biodiversity Be Protected?"; a branch of a tree with leaves alongside "Where Does Biodiversity Come From?"; and a rat, earthworm, bacterium, and leaves alongside "What Are the Different Levels of Biodiversity?"
