Topics Covered The Germ Theory of Disease Infectious Diseases Transport Issues Medicines to Treat Disease Ethical Issues in Medicine Reproductive Choices Radiation: Risks and Uses Lifestyle and Health Evolution The Universe Are We Alone in the Universe? Reading and Writing in Science

The Germ Theory of Disease and Infectious Diseases All living things are composed of cells Many diseases are caused by microbes which can be passed on from infected individuals How bacteria, fungi and viruses cause disease The contributions of scientists Semmelweis, Snow, Pastuer and Koch in the Germ Theory

The body can defend itself against disease using the immune system The history of vaccinations and how they work How antibiotics work and problems with resistance

Reproductive Choices The function of chromosomes, genes (alleles) and DNA Patterns of inheritance (including inheriting genetic diseases) How certain diseases can be a result of both inheritance and environmental factors Antenatal testing; the reliability and interpreting information Screening for inherited diseases Genetic counselling The use of IVF and PGD

Medicines to Treat Disease and Ethical Issues in Medicine The stages of drug development and the ethical issues involved in these stages. The legal and moral obligations of pharmaceutical companies. The use of control groups, placebos and double blind studies. Reasons for choosing alternative medicines.

Stem cells, the potential uses and the ethical issues. Cloning of animal cells and reproductive cloning. The legal and moral responsibility of scientists.

Evolution To know about the theory of evolution of Lamark (before Darwin) To know about the theory of evolution from both Darwin and Wallace. To know about natural selection and its implication on organisms. To know the importance of competition in natural selection. To know how Darwin came up with his ideas (observations).

To know the new evidence which also supports Darwin’s theory. To know about some peoples objections to evolution. .
