How to use your textbook ? The CHAPTER OUTLINE provides an overview of the chapter’s main concepts. SECTION NUMBERS keyde to page numbers provide easy reference points. The WORKING GLOSSARY provides definitions of important terms within each chapter. (Brock Biology of Microorganisms, Ninth Edition)
TABLEs have been redesigned to make key information even more accessible to students CONCEPT CHECKS summarize each section and provide quiz questions, so students can evaluate their understanding as they progress through the chapter CONCEPT LINKs alert students to material that builds on previous concepts and provides a useful cross-referencing system for the entire book Outstanding MICROGRAPHS are included throughout
CONCEPT CHECKS summarize each section and provide quiz questions, so students can evaluate their understanding as they progress through the chapter. CONCEPT LINKS alert students to material that builds on previous concepts and provides a useful cross-referencing system for the entire book. Outstanding MICROGRAPHS are included throughout. TABLES have been redesigned to make key information even more accessible to students
FEATURE BOXES provide additional, relevant information Some take an historical perspective, some focus on techniques and applications, and others explore a text topic in greater depth BOLDFACED TERMS are defined in the Glossary The ART in the ninth edition has been thoroughly revised but still maintains the use of consistent color coding
The ART in the ninth edition has been thoroughly revised, but still maintains the use of consistent color coding. BOLDFACED TERMS are defined in the Glossary. FEATURE BOXES provide additional, relevant information. Some take an historical perspective, some focus on techniques and applications, and others explore a text topic in greater depth
REVEW QUESTIONs challenge the students mastery of chapter concepts APPLICATION QUESTIONS allow students to test their analytical and problem-solving skills APPENDICES provide useful tutorial and reference information
REVIEW QUESTIONS challenge the student’s mastery of chapter concepts. APPLICATION QUESTIONS allow students to test their analytical and problem-solving skills. APPENDICES provide useful tutorial and reference information
