The study of cell structure and function is known as cell biology, and it is based on the idea that the cell is the most basic unit of life. Concentrating on the cell allows for a more in-depth understanding of the tissues and organisms that cells make up.
In the form of a molecule called DNA, chromosomes carry genetic information. Mitosis is a method of cell division that ensures that each new cell created contains the same genetic information as the parent cell. We will cover topics such as: Chromosomes, Mitosis and the Cell Cycle, Stem Cells.

The hierarchy of complex biological systems and structures is referred to as an organisation. The cell, for example, is thought to be the most basic type of organisation.
Organisms with many levels of an organisation are known as multicellular organisms. All living species are made up of cells, which are the basic building blocks.
An organ, such as the heart in animals or a leaf in plants, is made up of two or more tissues that work together to perform a specific function.

We will cover topics such as: The Human Digestive System, The Heart and Blood Vessels, Blood, Coronary Heart Disease, Health Issues.

Bioenergetics is a discipline of biology that studies how cells convert energy, most commonly through the production, storage, or consumption of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Most components of cellular metabolism, and thus life itself, rely on bioenergetic activities such cellular respiration and photosynthesis.
The chemical shift that occurs in the leaves of green plants is known as photosynthesis. It is the initial step in the process of preparing meals. We will cover topics such as: Photosynthetic reaction, Rate of photosynthesis, Uses of glucose from photosynthesis.

Respiration is a chemical reaction that takes place in each cell of an organism. When food is broken down, energy is released (glucose). To fully decompose, respiration necessitates the presence of oxygen. We will cover topics such as: Aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Human blood groups, skin color, and natural eye color are examples of genetic variance. Genetic factors determine whether you have lobed or lobeless ears. Biological sex is also an inherited trait; whether you are male or female is determined by genes passed down from your parents.
The creation of offspring is referred to as reproduction. There are two types of reproduction: sexual and asexual. We will cover topics such as: Sexual and asexual reproduction, Meiosis, Advantages and disadvantages of sexual and asexual reproduction (biology only), DNA and the genome, DNA structure (biology only), Genetic inheritance, Inherited disorders, Sex determination.

Individuals in a population are frequently similar but not identical to one another. Some variety within a species is genetic, while others is environmental – the environment in which they have evolved – and still others are a blend of the two. We will cover topics such as: Variation, Evolution, Selective breeding, Genetic engineering, Cloning (biology only).

Classification, or taxonomy, is a system of categorising living things. There are seven divisions in the system: (1) Kingdom; (2) Phylum or Division; (3) Class; (4) Order; (5) Family; (6) Genus; (7) Species. Kingdom is the broadest division.
Ecology is the scientific study of the distribution and abundance of organisms, as well as their interactions with one another and with their abiotic environment.
Interdependence. In an ecosystem, all organisms are dependent on each other. If the population of one creature rises or falls, it can have an impact on the ecosystem as a whole. We will cover topics such as: Communities, Abiotic factors, Biotic factors, Adaptations.

Biodiversity-rich ecosystems are more stable because they can easily adapt to changes. We are gradually learning that preserving great biodiversity is critical to the survival of our species on Earth. Biodiversity-rich ecosystems contribute to provide the resources required to support life, including human existence. We will cover topics such as: Biodiversity, Waste management, Land use, Deforestation, Global warming, Maintaining biodiversity.
A simple food chain is: algae → mosquito larvae → dragon fly larvae → perch. A food web can be created by combining all of the different food chains in an ecosystem. Trophic levels are the phases of a food chain or web. We will cover topics such as: Trophic levels, Pyramids of biomass, Transfer of biomass.

Food production efficiency can be increased by limiting energy transfer from food animals to the environment. This can be accomplished by restricting their movement and regulating the temperature of their environment. We will cover topics such as: Factors affecting food security, Farming techniques, Sustainable fisheries, Role of biotechnology.
