Biology 101 is a complete overview of biology from a biblical perspective. Following the days of creation mentioned in Genesis, this course divides the world of biology into groups: plants, aquatic creatures, birds, land animals, mankind, and the history of biology or genetics, presenting the science of life through the lens of God's Word.
Biology 101, hosted by Wes Olson, makes complex biology topics easy to understand through thousands of visuals, animations, and real-world examples. Students not only learn the fundamentals of biology but also see the wonder of God’s design in every lesson.
This visually rich course is specifically designed for your high-school student, but every word, graphic, and image has been carefully selected to be appropriate for the entire family.
