Honors Biology

Students will learn more about the world around them and more about themselves while learning to take notice of details that they may have overlooked on a daily basis. Students will be expected to think critically about scientific terminology and biological processes at a faster pace than other science classes.

Students will be inspired to understand how amazing nature and organisms are, including humans, thanks to God’s hand in creation. This class introduces students to the study of chemistry, cell structure and function, organic molecules, cell division and reproduction, cell metabolism, photosynthesis, DNA, genetics, the classification system and the six kingdoms. Students will be prepared for future study of biology-related subjects, such as Anatomy and Physiology. Topics covered will include chemistry basics, the structure and function of the cell, photosynthesis, DNA, genetics, the classification system and many others.
