Human Biology
Mock Exam
Course Introduction
Human Biology is the study of the structure, function, and development of the human body from the molecular level to the whole organism. This course explores topics such as anatomy, physiology, genetics, evolution, and human health, providing a scientific foundation for understanding how the body works and adapts to its environment. Students will examine biological processes that influence growth, reproduction, disease, and aging, while also considering the effects of lifestyle, environment, and technology on human well-being. Through lectures, laboratory work, and case studies, this course encourages critical thinking and application of biological principles to real-world health issues.
