Module: Module 1: Cells as the Basis of Life Duration: 5 weeks
Content Focus
Cells are the basis of life. They coordinate activities to form colonial and multicellular organisms. Students examine the structure and function of organisms at
both the cellular and tissue levels in order to describe how they facilitate the efficient provision and removal of materials to and from all cells in organisms. They
are introduced to and investigate biochemical processes through the application of the Working Scientifically skills processes.
Students are introduced to the study of microbiology and the tools that scientists use in this field.
These tools will be used throughout the course to assist in making predictions and solving problems of a multidisciplinary nature.
Conducts investigations to collect valid and reliable primary and describes single cells as the basis for all life by analysing and explaining

Selects and processes appropriate qualitative and quantitative data and
information using a range of appropriate media BIO11/12-4
