Students will study evolution, genetic continuity, internal systems and regulation, the diversity of living things, and the anatomy, growth, and functions of plants. The course focuses on the theoretical aspects of the topics under study, and helps students refine skills related to scientific investigation. Biology, Grade 12 University Preparation SBI4U The course does not really continue from the Grade 11 University level Biology course. Students should be aware that this course has a heavy emphasis on biochemistry. The first three units rely on chemical foundations learned in Grade 10 science and Grade 11 chemistry. Even though chemistry is not prerequisite, it is highly recommended for best success in this course. Once we work through the initial biochemistry units, we then explore genetics. But instead of the classical genetics studied in Grade 11, we look at the chemistry of the genetic molecules. After a brief look at population dynamics and the statistics related to understanding these concepts, students will end the course in a major systems unit. The systems unit focuses on the homeostasis of nervous, immune, endocrine, and osmoregulation. Prerequisite: Biology, Grade 11, university preparation (SBI 3U)

Emphasis will also be placed on the importance of chemistry in other branches of science. Chemistry, Grade 12 University Preparation SCH 4U This course enables students to enhance their understanding of chemistry through the study of organic chemistry, the structure and properties of matter, energy changes and rates of reaction, equilibrium in chemical systems, and electrochemistry. Students will further develop their problem-solving and investigation skills as they investigate chemical processes, and will refine their ability to communicate scientific information. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of chemistry in everyday life and on evaluating the impact of chemical technology on the environment. Prerequisite: Chemistry, Grade 11, university preparation (SCH 3U) Chemistry, Grade 12 College Preparation SCH 4C Grade 12 College Preparation Chemistry uses a variety of laboratory techniques and research projects to gain an understanding of particular topics in chemistry including: qualitative and quantitative analysis, organic chemistry, electrochemistry, and the effect chemicals have on our lives and on the environment. Strong emphasis is placed on data collection, data analysis and clear, technical reporting of results. or applied (SNC 2P)
5 PHYSICS Physics, Grade 11 University Preparation SPH 3U This course develops students understanding of the basic concepts of physics. Students will study the laws of dynamics and explore different kinds of forces, the quantification and forms of energy (mechanical, sound, light, thermal, and electrical), and the way energy is transformed and transmitted. They will develop scientific-inquiry skills as they verify accepted laws and solve both assigned problems and those emerging from their investigations. Students will also analyse the interrelationships between physics and technology, and consider the impact of technological applications of physics on society and the environment. Physics, Grade 12 University Preparation SPH 4U This course enables students to deepen their understanding of the concepts related to dynamics and energy transformations, electrical, gravitational, and magnetic fields, electromagnetic radiation and the interface between energy and matter. They will further develop inquiry skills and learn how to interpret experimental data to provide indirect evidence of laws of physics. Students will also consider technological applications of physics and its impact on society and the environment. It is recommended that students consider this course if they meet the following: 1.
