Global Biology

Course Number: #4602

Have you ever wondered about the wide variety of life on Earth? Do you seek a deeper understanding of humanity’s impact upon the life on this planet? Are you looking for a course that will help to prepare you for AP Biology and AP Environmental Science or Anatomy and Physiology? Then, Global Biology is for you.

This course is a redesigned version of Human Biology. We will explore the different biomes starting with the temperate deciduous forest, examine species diversity and adaptations, and study the impacts, both negative and positive, that humans have had. Ecological principles like energy flow, cycles, carrying capacity, sustainability, human health and diseases, comparative anatomy, animal behavior, integrated pest management and environmental law will be included along the way.
