The general concepts in biology, study of the common characteristics to
the organisms living and the hierarchy of levels of life and the
scientific method for scientific research-based to the viewing and build
hypotheses, as well as study the molecules of life-supporting
carbohydrate , fats , proteins and amino acids . the study of plant and
animal cells and blood cells in addition to studying tissue , cell
division (mitosis & meiosis) and general principles in genetics.
