| Biology: A living organism is a
delicate, simple, yet wondrous thing. Here on Earth, we have a
huge assortment of living things, from the enormous humpback
whale, down to the microscopic bacteria found deep within the
Earth's crust.
In this class, we will attempt to answer a lot of the basic
questions regarding life, such as: What are the different types
of organisms and how did they get here? How do cells work
together to form a large, complex, organism? How does life
perpetuate itself, and how has life changed over time?
We will attempt to answer these and other questions,
including the role human beings play, as well as how the human
body itself works. We will study everything from Cell Biology
and Genetics, to the Human Body and its various systems. We
will also learn about the diversity of life here on earth, and
how they work together with other organisms and the environment
to form Earth's various ecosystems. |
