Foreword
Workbook in General Biology 1 that focus in Biological Molecules and Energy transformation is
written primarily to teach the students to become more knowledgeable by learning the Biology.
This ambitious workbook attempts to infuse the everyday life experience of an average Filipino
with the learning skills of Sciences like critical thinking and reasoning. The workbook also
encourages innovation in the teaching of different disciplines and talents. Acting out concepts
through activities afford better understanding and appreciation of some lesson.

Features
A Closer Look – contains enrichment materials which provide in-depth coverage of the
topics. It also provides a better understanding of the concepts and topics of special interest,
practical techniques, and modern application of science in the real world.
Concept Map – makes use of a graphic organizer to help students visualize and organize
ideas/information within a topic.
Figures – contains of pictures that can be used to understand more the topics of biology.
Activities – helps students assess their progress and test their analytical and comprehension

Workbook in General Biology 1

This workbook gives a comprehensive introduction of the essential concepts and principles
of biological molecules and energy transformation. It place the study of biology in a meaningful,
interdisciplinary context in which students can see the role biology plays in everyday life bot in
and out of the classroom. The central core of the workbook revolves around understanding
biological molecules and energy transformation. For a more effective student centered learning,
concepts presented in each chapter are gradually introduced in a concise and student- friendly,
relationship between plant, animal and human characteristics. Students are motivated to read and
think critically as they build biology content knowledge.
