Biology One is the first component of the bridging course from grade 11 and 12 biology topics taught in secondary and national high schools to advance biology taught at the university. Thus, biology is the study of living things. It encompasses the cellular basis of living things, the energy metabolism that underlies the activities of life, and the genetic bases for inheritance in organisms. It considers the biology of microorganisms, plants, and animals, and it brings together the structural and functional relationships that underlie their day-to-day activities. Biology draws on the sciences of chemistry and physics for its foundations and applies the laws of these disciplines to living things. An understanding into natural selection, adaptation, genetic variation, micro and macroevolution, evolutionary history and human evolution concludes the last chapter of this course. Weekly laboratory work or practical based on each chapter will form an integral part of this course.
