Karp, Cell and Molecular Biology 9th Edition

By Gerald Karp, Janet Iwasa, and Wallace Marshall

Karp’s Cell and Molecular Biology and WileyPLUS deliver a concise and illustrative learning experience that helps students connect key concepts and experimentation, so they better understand how we know what we know in the world of cell biology.

WileyPLUS connects the text to carefully-selected media examples and provides students a multitude of tools and content for self-study and practice. Along with beautiful visual resources, two new sections and associated assessment in each chapter show the relevance of key cell biology concepts to plant cell biology and bioengineering.

These new sections, together with updated and restructured core content, new digital tools, and a new WileyPLUS experience, give faculty members the freedom and flexibility to use Karp’s Cell and Molecular Biology for a variety of different biology courses.

Experimental Walkthroughs

With the new Experimental Walkthroughs, available in WileyPLUS Learning Space, students can see first-hand how key experimental techniques are performed in the lab. These offer a mix of video, which show how researchers carry out experiments, and 3D animations that show a molecular-level view of how the experiments work.

Quantitative Tutorial Videos

The Quantitative Tutorial provides an accessible, student-friendly review of basic mathematical concepts used within the context of a biological problem, and expands upon the available resources for quantitative and physical concepts within this 8th edition

Accessible Approach

Janet Iwasa and Marshall Wallace convey how to get your students excited about Cell Biology by taking an experimental approach supported by quantitative tutorials.

    Features Include

  • Quantitative Tutorial Videos
  • Cell View Animations
  • Biology Basics Animations
  • Interactive Graphics
