Frontiers - Pioneers, Genetics, and Energy

In Frontiers Book 1: Pioneers, Genetics, and Energy, students will explore forgotten pioneers in Westward expansion, the Civil Rights Movement, and medicine. They will take a close look at the field of genetics, noting the makeup of DNA, genetic inheritance, and the prediction of traits. Energy is examined from many perspectives such as food webs and deep space travel. Examples of topics covered in this book include contributions of pioneers, biotechnology, Punnett squares, alternative resources, and nonrenewable and renewable resources-all within the broader concept of frontiers.
