Preface In recent years more and more colleges and universities have been introducing calculus courses specifically for students in the life sciences. This reflects a growing recognition that mathematics has become an indispensable part of any comprehensive training in the biological sciences. Our chief goal in writing this textbook is to show students how calculus relates to biology. We motivate and illustrate the topics of calculus with examples drawn from many areas of biology, including genetics, biomechanics, medicine, pharmacology, physiology, ecology, epidemiology, and evolution, to name a few. We have paid par- ticular attention to ensuring that all applications of the mathematics are genuine, and we provide references to the primary biological literature for many of these so that students and instructors can explore the applications in greater depth. We strive for a style that maintains rigor without being overly formal. Although our focus is on the interface between mathematics and the life sciences, the logical structure of the book is motivated by the mathematical material. Students will come away from a course based on this book with a sound knowledge of mathematics and an understanding of the importance of mathematical arguments. Equally important, they will also come away with a clear understanding of how these mathematical concepts and techniques are central in the life sciences, just as they are in physics, chemistry, and engineering. The book begins with a prologue entitled Mathematics and Biology detailing how the applications of mathematics to biology have proliferated over the past several decades and giving a preview of some of the ways in which calculus provides insight into biologi- cal phenomena. Alternate Versions There are two versions of this textbook. The first is entitled Biocalculus: Calculus for the Life Sciences; it focuses on calculus and some elements of linear algebra that are important in the life sciences. This is the second version, entitled Biocalculus: Calculus, Probability, and Statistics for the Life Sciences; it contains all of the content of the first version as well as three additional chapters titled Descriptive Statistics, Probability, and Inferential Statistics (see Content on page xviii). Features Real-World Data We think it’s important for students to see and work with real-world data in both numeri- cal and graphical form. Accordingly, we have used data concerning biological phenom- ena to introduce, motivate, and illustrate the concepts of calculus. Many of the examples and exercises deal with functions defined by such numerical data or graphs. See, for example, Figure 1.1.1 (electrocardiogram), Figure 1.1.23 (malarial fever), Exercise 1.1.26 (blood alcohol concentration), Table 2 in Section 1.4 (HIV density), Table 3 in Section 1.5 (species richness in bat caves), Example 3.1.7 (growth of malarial parasites), xv Copyright 2016 Cengage Learning.

And, of course, Chapters 11 and 13 are focused entirely on the analysis of biological data. Graded Exercise Sets Each exercise set is carefully graded, progressing from basic conceptual exercises and skill-development problems to more challenging problems involving applications and proofs. Conceptual Exercises One of the goals of calculus instruction is conceptual understanding, and the most impor- tant way to foster conceptual understanding is through the problems that we assign. To that end we have devised various types of problems. Some exercise sets begin with requests to explain the meanings of the basic concepts of the section. (See, for instance, the first few exercises in Sections 2.3, 2.5, 3.3, 4.1, and 8.2.) Similarly, all the review sections begin with a Concept Check and a True-False Quiz. Other exercises test concep- tual understanding through graphs or tables (see Exercises 3.1.11, 5.2.41–43, 7.1.9–11, 9.1.1–2, and 9.1.26–32). Another type of exercise uses verbal description to test conceptual understanding (see Exercises 2.5.12, 3.2.50, 4.3.47, and 5.8.29). Projects One way of involving students and making them active learners is to have them work (perhaps in groups) on extended projects that give a feeling of substantial accomplish- ment when completed. We have provided 24 projects in Biocalculus: Calculus for the Life Sciences and an additional four in Biocalculus: Calculus, Probability, and Statistics for the Life Sciences. Drug Resistance in Malaria (page 78), for example, asks students to construct a recursion for the frequency of the gene that causes resistance to an anti- malarial drug. The project Flapping and Gliding (page 297) asks how birds can mini- mize power and energy by flapping their wings versus gliding. In The Tragedy of the Commons: An Introduction to Game Theory (page 298), two companies are exploiting the same fish population and students determine optimal fishing efforts. The project Dis- ease Progression and Immunity (page 394) is a nice application of areas between curves. DNA Supercoiling (page 783) uses ideas from probability theory to predict how DNA is coiled and compacted into cells. We think that, even when projects are not assigned, students might well be intrigued by them when they come across them between sections. Case Studies We also provide two case studies: (1) Kill Curves and Antibiotic Effectiveness and (2) Hosts, Parasites, and Time-Travel. These are extended real-world applications from the primary literature that are more involved than the projects and that tie together mul- tiple mathematical ideas throughout the book. An introduction to each case study is pro- vided at the beginning of the book (page xli), and then each case study recurs in various chapters as the student learns additional mathematical techniques. The case studies can be used at the beginning of a course as motivation for learning the mathematics, and they can then be returned to throughout the course as they recur in the textbook.

PREFACE xvii a case study may be assigned at the end of a course so students can work through all com- ponents of the case study in its entirety once all of the mathematical ideas are in place. Case studies might also be assigned to students as term projects. Additional case studies will be posted on the website www.stewartcalculus.com as they become available. Biology Background Although we give the biological background for each of the applications throughout the textbook, it is sometimes useful to have additional information about how the biological phenomenon was translated into the language of mathematics. In order to maintain a clear and logical flow of the mathematical ideas in the text, we have therefore included such information, along with animations, further references, and downloadable data on the website www.stewartcalculus.com. Applications for which such additional informa- tion is available are marked with the icon BB in the text. Technology The availability of technology makes it more important to clearly understand the con- cepts that underlie the images on the screen. But, when properly used, graphing calcula- tors and computers are powerful tools for discovering and understanding those concepts. (See the section Calculators, Computers, and Other Graphing Devices on page xxvi for a discussion of these and other computing devices.) These textbooks can be used either with or without technology and we use two special symbols to indicate clearly when a particular type of machine is required. The icon ; indicates an exercise that definitely requires the use of such technology, but that is not to say that it can’t be used on the other exercises as well. The symbol CAS is reserved for problems in which the full resources of a computer algebra system (like Maple, Mathematica, or the TI-89/92) are required. But technology doesn’t make pencil and paper obsolete. Hand calculation and sketches are often preferable to technology for illustrating and reinforcing some concepts. Both instructors and students need to develop the ability to decide where the hand or the machine is appropriate. Tools for Enriching Calculus (TEC) TEC is a companion to the text and is intended to enrich and complement its contents. (It is now accessible in Enhanced WebAssign and CengageBrain.com. Selected Visuals and Modules are available at www.stewartcalculus.com.) Developed in collaboration with Harvey Keynes, Dan Clegg, and Hubert Hohn, TEC uses a discovery and exploratory approach. In sections of the book where technology is particularly appropriate, marginal icons TEC direct students to TEC Visuals and Modules that provide a laboratory environ- ment in which they can explore the topic in different ways and at different levels. Visuals are animations of figures in text; Modules are more elaborate activities and include exercises. Instructors can choose to become involved at several different levels, ranging from simply encouraging students to use the Visuals and Modules for independent explo- ration, to assigning specific exercises from those included with each Module, to creating additional exercises, labs, and projects that make use of the Visuals and Modules. Enhanced WebAssign Technology is having an impact on the way homework is assigned to students, particu- larly in large classes. The use of online homework is growing and its appeal depends on ease of use, grading precision, and reliability. We have been working with the calculus Copyright 2016 Cengage Learning.

Prologue This is an essay entitled Mathematics and Biology. It details how the appli- cations of mathematics to biology have proliferated over the past several decades and highlights some of the applications that will appear throughout the book. Case Studies The case studies are introduced here so that they can be used as moti- vation for learning the mathematics. Each case study then recurs at the ends of various chapters throughout the book. 1 Functions and Sequences The first three sections are a review of functions from precalculus, but in the context of biological applications. Sections 1.4 and 1.5 review exponential and logarithmic functions; the latter section includes semilog and log- log plots because of their importance in the life sciences. The final section introduces sequences at a much earlier stage than in most calculus books. Emphasis is placed on recursive sequences, that is, difference equations, allowing us to discuss discrete-time models in the biological sciences. Copyright 2016 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

PREFACE xix 2 Limits We begin with limits of sequences as a follow-up to their introduction in Section 1.6. We feel that the basic idea of a limit is best understood in the context of sequences. Then it makes sense to follow with the limit of a function at infinity, which we present in the setting of the Monod growth function. Then we consider limits of functions at finite numbers, first geometrically and numerically, then algebraically. (The precise definition is given in Appendix D.) Continuity is illustrated by population har- vesting and collapse. 3 Derivatives Derivatives are introduced in the context of rate of change of blood alcohol concentration and tangent lines. All the basic functions, including the exponen- tial and logarithmic functions, are differentiated here. When derivatives are computed in applied settings, students are asked to explain their meanings. 4 Applications of Derivatives The basic facts concerning extreme values and shapes of curves are deduced using the Mean Value Theorem as the starting point. In the sec- tion on l’Hospital’s Rule we use it to compare rates of growth of functions. Among the applications of optimization, we investigate foraging by bumblebees and aquatic birds. The Stability Criterion for Recursive Sequences is justified intuitively and a proof based on the Mean Value Theorem is given in Appendix E. 5 Integrals The definite integral is motivated by the area problem, the distance prob- lem, and the measles pathogenesis problem. (The area under the pathogenesis curve up to the time symptoms occur is equal to the total amount of infection needed to develop symptoms.) Emphasis is placed on explaining the meanings of integrals in various con- texts and on estimating their values from graphs and tables. There is no separate chapter on techniques of integration, but substitution and parts are covered here, as well as the simplest cases of partial fractions. 6 Applications of Integrals The Kety-Schmidt method for measuring cerebral blood flow is presented as an application of areas between curves. Other applications include the average value of a fish population, blood flow in arteries, the cardiac output of the heart, and the volume of a liver. 7 Differential Equations Modeling is the theme that unifies this introductory treat- ment of differential equations. The chapter begins by constructing a model for yeast pop- ulation size as a way to motivate the formulation of differential equations. We then show how phase plots allow us to gain considerable qualitative information about the behavior of differential equations; phase plots also provide a simple introduction to bifurcation theory. Examples range from cancer progression to individual growth, to ecology, to anesthesiology. Direction fields and Euler’s method are then studied before separable equations are solved explicitly, so that qualitative, numerical, and analytical approaches are given equal consideration. The final two sections of this chapter explore systems of two differential equations. This brief introduction is given here because it allows students to see some applications of systems of differential equations without requiring any addi- tional mathematical preparation. A more complete treatment is then given in Chapter 10. 8 Vectors and Matrix Models We start by introducing higher-dimensional coordi- nate systems and their applications in the life sciences including antigenic cartography and genome expression profiles. Vectors are then introduced, along with the dot product, and these are shown to provide insight ranging from influenza epidemiology, to cardiol- ogy, to vaccine escape, to the discovery of new biological compounds. They also provide some of the tools necessary for the treatment of multivariable calculus in Chapter 9. The remainder of this chapter is then devoted to the application of further ideas from linear algebra to biology. A brief introduction to matrix algebra is followed by a section where these ideas are used to model many different biological phenomena with the aid of matrix diagrams. The final three sections are devoted to the mathematical analysis of Copyright 2016 Ceng
