Biology is the scientific study of life and living organisms, encompassing their structure, function, growth, evolution, distribution, and interactions. This class explores the complexity of life from the smallest cells to entire ecosystems, helping students understand how living things survive, adapt, and interact with their environment. Biology is important because it lays the foundation for understanding health, genetics, the environment, and the impact of human activity on the natural world. It also fosters critical thinking and scientific inquiry, which are essential for solving global challenges such as disease, climate change, and biodiversity loss.
