About

We will go through the basics of high-school biology . I got my information from "Everything You Need To Ace Biology In One Big Fat Notebook - The High School Guide". This series will be covering 6 units: 1: Basics of Biology 2: The Chemistry of Life 3: Cell Theory 4: Bacteria, Viruses, Prions, and Viroids 5: Protists 6: Fungi I will continue this series for units 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 after this is done. I will be having slideshows, resources, and kahoots available for you to learn from if you miss a session. I also will have quizzes at the beginning of the next session on the topic covered in the previous session. _____________ I will add more sessions as time goes on!
