Description: Biology equips students with the language needed to succeed in biological studies while considering how the study of life deepens their understanding of the complexity, diversity, and unity of God’s creation. Students learn how the scientific method is applied to the study of life as divided into the five-kingdom classification system: animal, plant, fungi, protist, and monera. The course is organized in two-week cycles: during the first week students study theoretical concepts; the following week they apply these concepts through required lab experiments.
