Learn about the diversity of life of Earth, including diversity in genes, physiology, shapes, sizes, and behaviors. You will learn about how this diversity emerged, as plants, animals, and microbes became adapted to the environment and to each other. You will learn to predict whether populations of interacting organisms will persist over time.
