Marine Biology
This course in marine biology aims to give a comprehensive grounding in the fascinating subject of life in the sea. Throughout the 10 fully illustrated modules, the student will learn about many aspects of oceanography and marine biology such as how oceans are born and die and how life began and evolved in the sea over the past 4 million years. We look at the ocean as an ecological habitat and the amazing evolutionary adaptations of aquatic animals to the harsh marine environment. The course looks at ocean habitats from the poles to the equator and from the sunlit surface of the sea to the dark depths of the deep ocean. Finally the human impact on the marine ecosystem is discussed. Each module is assessed with four essay questions presented at the end of each module and there is tutor support throughout the course.
