Building upon Scott Freeman's unique narrative style that incorporates the Socratic approach and draws readers into thinking like a biologist, the Fourth Edition has been carefully refined to motivate and support a broader range of learners as they are introduced to new concepts and encouraged to develop and practice new skills. Each page of the book is designed in the spirit of active learning and instructional reinforcement, equipping novice learners with tools that help them advance in the course-from recognizing essential information in highlighted sections to demonstrating and applying their understanding of concepts in practice exercises that gradually build in difficulty. The new edition makes it easier than ever for readers to locate information and learn concepts, with: Remarkable "Big Picture" concept maps that help students synthesize information across chapters A complete answer key in the back of the book More concise discussions on selected topics with a clearer sub-heading structure for easier navigation A finely-tuned art program with improved clarity and contrast among biology structures and an improved orientation for phylogenetic trees An expanded BioSkills appendix at the end of the book helps readers learn and practice foundational skills, which range from interpreting graphs to how to read a phylogenetic tree to common Latin and Greek word roots, and reading chemical structures. New to Freeman's MasteringBiology(TM) online tutorial and assessment system are ten classic experiment tutorials and automatically-graded assignment options that are adapted directly from content and exercises in the book. Key Topics: Biology and the Tree of Life, Water and Carbon: The Chemical Basis of Life, Protein Structure and Function, Nucleic Acids and the RNA World, An Introduction to Carbohydrates, Lipids, Membranes, and the First Cells, Inside the Cell, Cell-Cell Interactions, Cellular Respiration and Fermentation, Photosynthesis, The Cell Cycle, Meiosis, Mendel and the Gene, DNA and the Gene: Synthesis and Repair, How Genes Work, Transcription, RNA Processing, and Translation, Control of Gene Expression in Bacteria, Control of Gene Expression in Eukaryotes, Analyzing and Engineering Genes, Genomics, Principles of Development, An Introduction to Animal Development, An Introduction to Plant Development Intended for readers interested in gaining a basic understanding of biology 0321597966 / 9780321597960 Biological Science with MasteringBiology(R) Package consists of: 0321598202 / 9780321598202 Biological Science 0321681703 / 9780321681706 MasteringBiology(R) with Pearson eText Student Access Kit for Biological Science (ME component) Biological Science, Volume 1: The Cell, Genetics, & Development Freeman, Scott, Benjamin-Cummings Publishing Company<
