EE BIOL 162L
Plant Physiology and Ecophysiology Laboratory
Description: Laboratory, 12 hours. Requisites: course 152 or 162 (may be taken concurrently), Life Sciences 1, 2, 3, and 23L, or 7A, 7B, 7C, and 23L. Focus on whole-plant physiology and ecophysiology from biochemical and molecular processes to whole-plant function and field performance to gain understanding and appreciation of plant function, including dynamic processes of growth, development, and reproduction. Exercises provide training in approaches and instrumentation such that students become scientists, applying physiological techniques to answer questions on plant function, including use of programs such as FunAnatomy (plant anatomy) and FastPlant (growing experiment). To apply this course to the Biology upper-division major laboratory requirement, the corresponding lecture course must be completed with a passing grade. Letter grading.

Summer 2024 - Took this class over the summer and it was very easy to do. We were given a fun anatomy assingment and a case study each week and was due before your section every week. You are only graded for those assignments and participation. The professor never popped in, class was directly led by the TA (mine was Jordyn, she was amazing). If you go to her office hours she will help you tremendously with the assingments so dont be afraid to ask. I know it says its a 4 hour lab on myucla but it was actually 1 hour long, we only went over the assignments we did the previous week (all meetings were on zoom). In all, the experience was good, and like I said Jordyn was very helpful. So if you can, take this over the summer rather than in the regular school year because labs will be 4 hours long.
