Signature Assignment

My signature assignment for this class was cancelled due to COVID-19 and the stay at home orders in Spring of 2020.

Reflection

Prior to my biology courses I only had a vague inkling of cellular processes and cycles of plants. I was never entirely sure how biology was utilized outside of medicine. I was certain it was used in agriculture, but never to a degree that I was wholly certain. Farming is an old practice and we rarely think about the science and technique utilized by farmers. The topic on the scientific method which uses farming as an example really piqued my interest in this connection, and further education on biology really cemented this connection and understanding in me, which is certainly on way my understandings of biology has changed with my education.
