Is there an easy way to tell if they would allow her to take this and if it is online? However, I am looking in their semester search and never see that offered. Confusing.
Also, do you think the class at Portage matches the correct Biology? I am trying to match the Biology level for science Majors.
Here is the course I am trying to match although the description is sparse:
BIO 1113 Biology II 3 Credit Hours Continuation of Biology I. Topics include: a comparative overview of the diversity of life, anatomy and physiology, origins, and ecology. Prerequisites: C- or above in BIO 1043 and BIO 1041 or BIO 1103 and BIO 1101
Thank you!

The course at NMCJ is General Biology II. To see which are full online courses, you just look at the "Meeting Times" column, make it bigger, and then look for a listing with no blacked out days of the week (so if T is blacked out, that means it's a Tuesday class, so not online). Next to the ones with no blacked out dates, it will say Type: Web Online Building: Internet.
If you choose the 2nd course, it shows on the "Part of Term" column "3" - so you'd click on the course, and then click on "Instructor/Meeting Times" where you can see that it's Mar 8 - May 5. Click on "Syllabus" to see that.
Here's what the syllabus says:General Biology II stresses the origins of life, the diversity of viruses, bacteria, protists, and fungi; the diversity of plants, plant structure and function; animal diversity, animal structure and function; as well as animal behavior, ecology of populations, ecosystems, and environmental concerns. Concurrent enrollment in BI 124L (laboratory) is required. This is a four (4) credit hour course including lab.
The course does not say anything about A&P, so you may not want to do it. But the only way to check to see if they'll let her take it is to call them directly.

Portage is a course provider specifically for Nurses, so not sure it's what you'll want.
Here's the class description: A continued examination of the fundamental laws, theories, and concepts of biology. Topics include genetics, the molecular basis of replication, transcription, translation, and gene regulation; the effects of mutations on gene expression; endocrine signaling and the associated disease states; neuron action potentials and signaling cascades; muscle contraction and reflexes; principles of homeostasis and the associated feedback mechanisms relative to blood osmolarity, blood pressure and thermal regulation; an introduction to pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and the process of clinical trials; epidemiology, and the global impact, surveillance, and investigation of infectious diseases. The laboratory component of this course is delivered using virtual labs and interactive simulations with detailed instruction and demonstrations from an experienced instructor.

Generally, I'd say that when you need to take a 2-class series like that, you're much better off taking them from the same place, so that everything is covered.
