Grade 9 - Science

Biology (Credit: 1.00)

This course addresses key concepts and processes from chemistry, cells, cellular respiration, photosynthesis, genetics, and DNA. The scientific method and foundational chemistry facts are presented to assist student in the study of biology. This course also addresses key concepts and processes of evolution, classification, ecology, and human anatomy. An overview of human body systems, as well as, defining structures of bacteria, protists, fungi, plants, and animals are also explored.

Earth Science (Credit: 1.00)

This course addresses major concepts such as the materials which compose Earth, the rock cycle and types of rocks, Earth"s resources, formation and movement of soil, glaciers, deserts, and alluvial landscapes, earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, mountains building, and geologic time. This course also covers such concepts as the ocean floor, seafloor sediments, waves, tides, and shoreline processes, characteristics of the atmosphere, precipitation, air pressure and wind, storms, climate, early astronomy, Earth-Moon-Sun interactions, and Solar System. Laboratory concepts appear in videos, careers in Earth Science are explored, and key scientists are called out through portraits and biographies.
