Through the study of living things, students will learn about the theory of evolution, the chemical basis of life, the study of cells, classical and molecular genetics, basic metabolism and DNA replication, transcription and translation.
Students will explore how all living things demonstrate a base level of similarity and conversely, the ways they are unique and learn how living things obtain energy, utilize nutrients and transport substances within their structure.
Biology 30 also dives into evolution, the concepts of genetics, cell structure and function and the diversity of life at the cellular and organ system levels.

Students have the option to enroll in the Biology 30 live broadcast synchronous course OR the Biology 30 online asynchronous course.
Live broadcast synchronous: students attend a live broadcast class at a specific time, every school day. If you're interested in enrolling in the Biology 30 synchronous course, please review the live broadcast details and schedule.
Online asynchronous: students can take Biology 30 anywhere, anytime.
