Students are asked to help eight teenagers make lifestyle choices dealing with nutrition, exercise, drugs, and diseases. They also learn about the basic body systems and medical careers. Students learn about atoms and molecules, elements and compounds, the periodic table, chemical reactions, and the behavior of gases. They balance equations, calculate empirical and molecular formulas, and determine molar mass. This is a second semester health course, focusing on the elements of mental health, human development, emergency procedures, and environmental health.
Students learn about the influences on physical and mental changes throughout life's cycles.
Emergency procedures and services are outlined, and they look at the potential effects of environmental conditions, such as pollution. In this second-semester sequel, students encounter problems in colonizing a new planet. The solutions require that they learn about colligative properties, kinetics and equilibrium, acids and bases, oxidation-reduction, formulas, and organic chemistry.
