1. The sequence moves from an introduction to biology as a science (Ch. 1), through the chemistry of life (Ch. 2), cellular structure and function (Ch. 3), energy processes like photosynthesis and respiration (Ch. 4), cell division (Ch. 5), genetics (Ch. 6–8), and finally the origin and early evolution of life (Ch. 9) — progressing from foundational science concepts to increasingly complex biological systems.
