Biology I Exam Bank

Course Introduction

Biology I is an introductory course that explores the fundamental principles of living organisms and life processes. Topics covered include the structure and function of cells, basic biochemistry, genetics, evolution, and an overview of biological diversity. Students will also examine the mechanisms of heredity, cellular metabolism, and the interrelationships between organisms and their environments. This course lays the groundwork for further study in the biological sciences by emphasizing scientific inquiry, critical thinking, and laboratory skills.
