    Cell Biology

    • Cell structure consists of cell membrane, cytoplasm, and nucleus
    • Functions of cell organelles:
      • Mitochondria: generate energy for the cell through cellular respiration
      • Ribosomes: site of protein synthesis
      • Lysosomes: contain digestive enzymes that break down waste and foreign substances
    • Cell division process:
      • Mitosis: produces two daughter cells with identical DNA to the parent cell
      • Meiosis: produces four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell

    Genetics

    • Mendel's laws of inheritance:
      • Law of segregation: each pair of alleles separates from each other during gamete formation
      • Law of independent assortment: alleles for different genes are sorted independently of each other
      • Law of dominance: a dominant allele will be expressed over a recessive allele
    • DNA structure and replication:
      • Double helix model: two complementary strands of nucleotides twisted together
      • Semiconservative replication: each new DNA molecule contains one old strand and one new strand
    • Gene expression:
      • Transcription: process of creating a complementary RNA molecule from DNA
      • Translation: process of building a protein from a messenger RNA molecule
      • Regulation of gene expression: mechanisms that control the expression of genes

    Human Physiology

    • Human body systems:
      • Nervous system: functions include control, coordination, and communication
      • Circulatory system: functions include transporting oxygen and nutrients to cells and removing waste
      • Respiratory system: functions include exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide
      • Digestive system: functions include breaking down and absorbing nutrients
    • Human body functions:
      • Nutrition and digestion: process of taking in and breaking down nutrients
      • Respiration and gas exchange: process of exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide
      • Circulation and blood pressure: maintenance of blood flow and pressure

    Microbiology

    • Types of microorganisms:
      • Bacteria: single-celled prokaryotes with a cell wall and no membrane-bound organelles
      • Viruses: small infectious agents that replicate inside host cells
    • Microbial growth and reproduction:
      • Binary fission: process of bacterial cell division
      • Budding: process of yeast cell division
    • Microbial interaction with humans:
      • Symbiosis: mutualistic, commensal, or parasitic relationships between microorganisms and humans
      • Pathogenesis: ability of microorganisms to cause disease

    Plant Biology

    • Plant structure and function:
      • Cell wall: provides support and protection to the cell
      • Cell membrane: regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell
      • Root, stem, leaf, and flower structures: specialized for different functions
    • Photosynthesis:
      • Light-dependent reactions: process of converting light energy into ATP and NADPH
      • Light-independent reactions: process of converting CO2 into glucose using ATP and NADPH

    Ecology and Environment

    • Ecosystems and biodiversity:
      • Types of ecosystems: terrestrial, aquatic, marine
