Course Description
This course is specifically designed for students from the state of Arizona.

The life science curriculum covers the basics such as scientific method, experimentation, analysis, research, and ethics. The properties of life are explained followed by the functions of the organelles in both plant and animal, eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Cell transport, signaling, respiration, cell division, and protein synthesis are covered extensively. Evolution, natural selection, adaptations, and genetics are covered in numerous lessons focusing on evidence of evolution, causes of variation, reproduction, mutations, and genetic engineering. Modern day issues are explored, such as world hunger, invasive species, ecosystems, sustainability, and population genetics. Biodiversity is also covered with lessons on climate change, human impact, renewable and nonrenewable resources, and the food chain. The lessons, essays, labs, and forums are designed to engage and develop students' critical thinking skills. This course has been aligned to the Arizona State Standards.
