Introduction

This is a modified version of the OpenStax Biology 2e 2022 textbook. It has been customized by Maryann Burbidge with contributions from Dr.s Jantina Toxopeus, Cory Bishop Russell Wyeth and Jennifer Perry for Biol 111 (Introductory Cell Biology) and Biol 112 (Diversity of Life) at St Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, Nova Scotia.

The original version already had links to videos and interactive activities, but we have added several more. There are a variety of sources for the videos, many of which are part of a series. We encourage you to figure out which video producers make videos that suit your style of learning and use their series of videos for review, to clarify concepts etc. with which you might have difficulty.

This is the beta version of our customized textbook, please let us know if you find any errors, etc. or if you have any ideas for more more videos, interactives, etc. Do you think that there should be more interactive questions to help you test yourself about the content? Let us know! The textbook may be updated periodically throughout the semester, but it will be announced if there are any major changes.

We are extremely grateful to Cynthia Holt at Atlantic OER for all her amazing help setting up our version of the textbook and importing all the required files on PressBooks. We are also extremely grateful to Atlantic OER for providing the grant that allowed this textbook to be customized and for the accompanying H5P assignments to be created.
