Biology

This term’s biology curriculum begins with the study of how the body maintains a stable internal environment, highlighting the structure, function, and care of organs such as the liver and skin. It progresses into the coordination systems in humans, focusing on both hormonal and nervous coordination, including the peripheral nervous system and the different types of human actions—reflex, voluntary, and conditioned reflexes. These topics emphasize how the body responds to internal and external stimuli to maintain homeostasis.

In the later part of the term, the focus shifts to the sensory systems, exploring the structure and function of organs responsible for sight, hearing, smell, and taste. The final topics cover reproduction and development, examining the formation of new organisms, zygote development in flowering plants, seed germination, and the adaptive features observed in developing animals. Together, these lessons provide a comprehensive understanding of coordination, perception, and developmental biology.
