Biology: God’s Living Creation deals with one of the most fascinating subjects known to man.<br />

Students begin with a combination of field, text, and lab work to take a closer look at plants.<br />

They will use the microscope and dissections as they study the Creator’s provision for plants<br />

and animals. The anatomy and physiology of the human body are studied using the Transvision®<br />

view of the human body, which shows some of the body systems.<br />

Students will look deeper into the micro-cosmos as they learn some of man’s latest discoveries<br />

about the most complicated structure in all of creation: the living cell. They will see the intricate<br />

detail that God has built into living things and His master plan for transmitting information<br />

within an organism and from one generation of organisms to the next. Students will also understand<br />

just how far man still has to go to gain a complete understanding of God’s living creation.<br />

• Feature articles with information about God’s design, provision,<br />

and the wonders of His creation (65)<br />

• Laboratory exercises (25)<br />
