Course Description
AP Biology is an introductory college-level biology course. Students cultivate their understanding of biology through inquiry-based investigations as they explore the following topics: evolution, cellular processes — energy and communication, genetics, information transfer, ecology, and interactions.(College Board, 2017) The AP Biology course is designed to be the equivalent of a two-semester college introductory biology course. The class is designed for students who have taken both biology and chemistry. Students who do
well on the AP biology exam may qualify for college credit and/or may be exempt from taking freshman-level biology courses depending on their college or university.
Big Idea 1 (Evolution – EVO): The process of evolution
drives the diversity and unity of life.
Big Idea 2 (Energetics – ENE): Biological systems utilize
free energy and molecular building blocks to grow, to
reproduce and to maintain dynamic homeostasis. Big Idea 3 (Information Storage and Transmission – IST):
Living systems store, retrieve, transmit and respond to
information essential to life processes.
Big Idea 4 (Systems Interactions – SYI): Biological systems
interact, and these systems and their interactions possess
complex properties Room 228 AP Biology is an introductory college-level biology course.
