Apologia’s award-winning Advanced Biology Textbook is written to your student in a conversational tone and cultivates independent learning. The lessons and illustrations are also designed to engage them both analytically and creatively. This course will provide them with an advanced understanding of biology while also preparing them for college-level biology and the ACT. They’ll learn about the body’s organ systems, ranging from the digestive and respiratory systems to the endocrine and lymphatic systems. It also covers the reproductive system in detail, but is done so with respectful illustrations and descriptions.
