This course builds on and reviews the concepts covered in secondary/high school biology and chemistry including:

essential anatomical and physiological terminology
properties of chemicals and chemical reactions
the unique characteristics of water
solutions, colloids and suspensions
organic and inorganic compounds
the significance and properties of carbohydrates, lipids proteins and nucleic acids
the importance of enzymes in reactions that occur in the body
