About the course
In this course students learn about observations and inferences, hypotheses, experiments, and scientific theories and laws. They will delve into the chemistry of life from atoms to the chemical structures that make life, as we know it, possible. They will explore the ecology that surrounds life as they investigate ecosystems, biomes, populations, and communities.
An in-depth study of cell structure and function, cellular energy, DNA, proteins, and cell cycles will help students comprehend heartier materials as they advance through topic of genetics – inheritance, disorders, and technology.
Students will also learn about prokaryotes, viruses, protists, and fungi. They will explore deeply into the fascinating world of plants and animals.
This High school level course is recommended for 9th grade or 10th grade students.
