About the Book

One of the best ways for your students to succeed in their biology course is through hands-on lab experience. With its 46 lab exercises and hundreds of color photos and illustrations, the LABORATORY MANUAL FOR GENERAL BIOLOGY, Fifth Edition, is your students' guide to a better understanding of biology. Most exercises can be completed within two hours, and answers to the exercises are included in the Instructor's Manual.

The perfect companion to Starr and Taggart's BIOLOGY: THE UNITY AND DIVERSITY OF LIFE, Eleventh Edition, as well as Starr's BIOLOGY: CONCEPTS AND APPLICATIONS, Sixth Edition, and BIOLOGY: TODAY AND TOMORROW, this lab manual can also be used with any introductory biology text.

Key Feature

  • An emphasis on hypothesis testing, with investigative (experimental) options, helps students learn and use the scientific process.
  • Refined, concise introductions to exercises and streamlined procedures clarify the presentation, making the material more accessible and increasing student comprehension.
  • Pre-lab questions prepare the students for the exercise while the Post lab questions focus on what was learned directly from the exercise.
  • This edition contains more than 600 colorful and clearly labeled photos, diagrams, and illustrations.
  • This is a great lab manual to customize! The flexible structure and variety of labs allows instructors to pick and choose which labs they will use and to create the most effective and efficient lab manual possible.
  • The approximate time each section should take is listed in the instructor's manual to help instructors better prepare assignments.
