You have reached the web site of Gerry Meister, a Biology instructor  at Douglas College in New Westminster. The primary purpose of this site is to make my class notes available to my own students when they miss a class or wish to look ahead. I should point out that ALL of my notes are a work in progress and may be updated right up to my classes each week. If you use the notes to work ahead, you should therefore check back again after the classes to make sure that nothing has changed. In addition, you will find places where there are obvious gaps in the notes. In most cases these gaps are to be filled in during class discussions or from assigned readings. Finally, I wish to emphasize that these notes are meant to be used as a study guide only. You are responsible for all material covered in class, in your course manuals (Douglas College students) and in assigned readings.

If you have found your way here and you are not one of my students, please feel free to use this material in any way you choose. It is all entirely copyright free! However, keep in mind that the emphasis that I place on various material and the way that I cover the material may not be the same as other instructors. Furthermore, my notes and some other materials included here have not been reviewed and approved by the Douglas Biology Department. It is therefore imperative that you attend your classes and get your own instructor's perspective.

Study Hints

PLEASE NOTE: I am in the process of rebuilding this site, so many of the links are not active. I am presently teaching 1203 and 1103, so these will be updated first.

1103   Anatomy and Physiology (2nd half). Under Construction NOW!

1203/1209 Anatomy and Physiology (2nd half). Under Construction NOW!

Biology 1110/1210       General Biology  (Douglas College)
Biology 1103/1203           Human Biology for Nursing Students (Douglas College)
Biology 1109/1209           Anatomy and Physiology for  Physical  Education Students (Douglas College)
Biology 2320                   Introductory Genetics

The fetal pig web page at the college is no longer available. Here are some links to similar FETAL PIG WEBPAGES with photos, self-quizzes and more:
