What do we study in science?
Science is one of the most important academic subjects during which the student studies life in general. He studies the human body, animals, and the environment, and monitors human and natural phenomena and how to observe these phenomena, develop hypotheses for them, and conduct experiments on them.
Explaining the science subject in a smooth and simple way that makes it easy for the student to understand and assimilate. The science subject is one of the subjects that requires understanding and concentration. The student must be present in mind.
Good luck to all students 🥰
Explaining biology to high school students, in Arabic and English.
Biology is a natural science concerned with the study of life and living organisms, including their structures, functions, growth, development, distribution, and classification. Modern biology is a broad field consisting of many branches and sub-specializations, but it includes some unified general concepts that link its various branches and upon which all studies and research are based.
Explaining the subject of biology in an easy and simple way that facilitates the student’s comprehension, understanding and understanding. Biology is a scientific subject that requires focus and the student to be present in his mind.
Good luck to all students
