This project was prepared as part of a BioQUEST faculty
development workshop entitled BioQUEST Summer 2008 Faculty Workshop Problem Solving in Biology: Data, Tools and Resources from Plant Science at
Southeast Missouri State University in
June 2008. The BioQUEST Curriculum Consortium is committed to the reform of undergraduate biology
instruction through an emphasis on engaging students in
realistic scientific practices. This approach is sometimes
characterized as an inquiry driven approach and is
captured in BioQUEST's three P's (problem-posing,
problem-solving, and peer-persuasion). As part of this workshop groups of faculty
were encouraged to initiate innovative curricular
projects. We are sharing these works in progress in the
hope that they will stimulate further exploration,
collaboration and development.

Botany and zoology instructors desire to truly integrate plant and animal physiology (instead of teaching them sequentially with no true comparisons).
We can see, then, that autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms differ both in their nutrient requirements and in the problems associated with nutrient procurement. And we would expect that they have evolved radically different adaptations in response to the different selection pressures acting upon them. We shall therefore discuss these two great groups of organisms separately . . . but shall indicate similarities between them where appropriate. p. 154.
