Science

In Anatomy & Physiology, they'll:

• Use proper anatomical terminology to describe directional terms, regions, planes, and cavities
• Distinguish and identify bones with the axial and appendicular skeleton
• Dissect and identify part of the eye and describe its function
• Dissect and identify components of a whole brain
• Be able to take blood pressure and heart rate and other various activities
• Trace the movement of air through the respiratory tract

In Biology, they'll:

• Evaluate how science affects society
• Develop a model to describe how the carbon cycle is transferred through cellular respiration and photosynthesis
• Design, evaluate, and refine a model to show that human activities and natural phenomena can change the flow of matter and energy in an ecosystem
• Use a model to illustrate how photosynthesis transforms light energy into stored chemical energy
• Apply statistics and probability to explain the variation and distribution of expressed traits in a population
