About the course
This class is typically a 9th or 10th grade high school class with heavy amounts of vocabulary. The students will gain an appreciation of the world around them as they discover the design of the simplest living things. This biology course covers the science and chemistry of life, ecology, cell structure and function, cellular energy, DNA and, genetics, evolution, prokaryotes and viruses, protists and fungi, plant diversity and reproduction, plant structure and function, and the biology of various types of animals. We will be dissecting 4 specimens during the second semester of this class. Dissections include Earthworm, Crayfish, Perch, and Frog.
