Living Things and the Environment
Learning Time: 5-15 hours
Content: Living Things and the Environment is a field that examines the interactions of living things with their environment and ecosystem dynamics. This subject covers the layers of the biosphere, habitats, food chains, energy flow, biogeochemical cycles, and human impacts. TYT focuses on food webs and cycles, while AYT focuses on ecosystem balance and protection. The current 2025 curriculum also covers global warming, biodiversity loss, and sustainability. Learning this subject is important for environmental awareness and ecological balance.
