Grade Range: 5-7Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology is a unique course from Apologia Science that seeks to explore the depths of the human body from a Christian viewpoint. Each lesson focuses on God’s unique design of the human body covering everything from DNA and cell structure to the amazingly complex circulatory system. Incorporated throughout the textbook is valuable information about health and nutrition as well as many scriptural and Biblical applications.
