Exploring Biology in the Laboratory

Exploring Biology in the Laboratory, 3rd Edition, is an introductory biology manual published by Morton Publishing Company. The full-color volume is designed to support foundational introductory laboratory courses for both majors and nonmajors.

The manual covers core general biology topics extensively through focused laboratory activities. Rather than presenting subjects in isolation, these exercises emphasize the unity of living things and examine the evolutionary forces that continue to shape biological diversity.

Structured to require minimal outside reference material, the publication provides self-contained exercises for college laboratory work. This accessible framework supports practical investigations and has achieved widespread adoption in colleges and universities across the country.
