Biology

Biology 1 is an introductory, laboratory-based course that is designed to familiarize the college preparatory student with the major concepts of biological science: scientific inquiry; interdependence of organisms; the cell; matter, energy, and organizations of living systems; molecular basis of heredity; and biological evolution. This course provides numerous opportunities for students to develop science process skills, critical thinking, and an appreciation for the nature of science through inquiry-based learning experiences. Investigative, hands-on activities that address the high school biology standards are an integral part of this course. Biology 1 is a precursor to higher level science courses and fulfills one of the three lab science credits necessary to receive a high school diploma. Completion of this course will provide foundational skills that are transferable to other science courses.
