Description

This is a full and complete overview of biology. It will prepare any student taking an ACT; they'll have all they need to know of the biological sciences. Students completing this course will be prepared for any biology courses they take at the college level.
In this course, your student will:

See the evidence of God's creation as they learn scientific principles
• Conduct experiments in a methodical way that prepares them not just for future classes, but for life • Take personal notes, conduct, and record experiments, and be able to interpret results • Develop skills to think through and beyond the textbook materials, and be able to create their own experiments from concept to interpretation of results • Further develop skills on their own learning style and how they best process, record, study, and retain information learned • Be able to hold a logical discussion on God and science based on facts and beliefs  What's Inside Exploring Creation with Biology, 3rd Edition Textbook
Exploring Creation with Biology, 3rd Edition covers everything students need to prepare for a college-level biology course. The materials are updated, with deeper explanations of certain concepts, new graphics help students understand the life sciences. 
In the 3rd Edition, your student will find:
• Updated content to present the most current science  • A reorganized structure of the information helps students logically progress through their biological studies • All experiments have been updated or replaced, and the addition of new experiments • New illustrations and infographics have help students breakdown and visually digest difficult concepts In addition to updating the images and illustrations • New content has been added, including a new section on photosynthesis and a new section on diseases. • An overhaul of the section on genetics, including more information on DNA
The experiments come in three types: microscope labs, dissection labs, and household labs. Household labs use only common household equipment. The microscope labs, however, require a microscope and several prepared and blank slides, while the dissection labs require an additional dissection kit and specimens.

Topics covered include:
• The Science of Life o The processes of science, including what scientists do, the scientific method, the tools of science and the limitations of science • The Chemistry of Life o The composition of matter, the properties of water, lipids, proteins, and enzymes • Ecology o Ecosystems, biomes, populations, and communities • Cell Structure and Function o Characteristics of all cells • Cellular Energy o Energy of all cells • DNA, Proteins, and the Cell Cycle o DNA replication, protein synthesis, and cell cycle & cellular reproduction • Genetics o Mendelian genetics, inheritance patterns, human genetics, and gene technologies • Evolution o Charles Darwin, Micro and Macroevolution, the geological column, and fossil record evidence • Prokaryotes and Viruses o Classification, Archae, Bacteria, and Viruses • Protists and Fungi o Characteristics and classification • Plant Diversity and Reproduction o Classifying plants and life cycle • Plant Structure and Function o Plant anatomy and physiology, transporting water and nutrients, plant growth, hormones, and responses • Animals – Invertebrates (part 1) o Characteristics and diversity • Animals – Invertebrates (part 2) o Arthropods • Animals – Chordates (part 1) o Characteristics and diversity • Animals – Chordates (part 2) o Birds and mammals
