Hello, I am yogesh Men, from Ahmedabad, Gujrat. I am B.Pharm graduate and completed my MBA also in Marketing and operation, I had 3 years experience in product management, then after I swith my stream and join Healthcare IT, Since 2015 to till now I works for US healthcare RCM domain. During My tenure of experience I worked as a trainer, I provide the training in Biology, Pharmacy, Anatomy and physiology, soft skill, personality development, and project specific knowledge for fresh Life science graduate candidate.

I specialised in Science specifically Human Anatomy and physiology and pharmacy, similary I prepared for competative examination so I am well verse in math and reasoning skill, this is helpful in interview and currently I practice on it along with soft skill and personality development. Currently I worked with henry harvin since 2022 as a trainer for Medical Coding and soft skill

My career goal to be achived a great role in organization, taking on more responsibility, and become expertise in training field. I am happy to play a music and watching fruitful content on youtube or read a blog. I am eager to make a career in training

Biology is the branch of science which deals with the study of living organisms. The ICSE Class 8 Biology syllabus covers topics such as transport of food and minerals in plants, reproduction in plant and animals, ecosystems, and human body-endocrine, circulatory and nervous system. The syllabus is designed to help you understand the basic concepts and principles of biology, and to develop your skills of observation, experimentation, and analysis. The syllabus also aims to foster your curiosity and interest in the natural world, and to appreciate its diversity and interdependence.

• Learning Objectives:

  UNIT 1: Transport of food and minerals in plants

  UNIT 2: Reproduction in plants and animals

  UNIT 3: Ecosystems

  UNIT 4: Human Body: Endocrine, Circulatory, and Nervous System

  UNIT 5: Health and Hygiene

  UNIT 6: Food Production

• Course Outline:

   

  UNIT 1: Transport of food and minerals in plants

  • Diffusion – its definition;
  • Osmosis – its definition, examples, semi-permeable membrane; active transport; root pressure;

  4. A brief account of the abiotic or non-living components such as air, water, soil and climatic factors such as sunlight, humidity temperature and wind;
  5. Only forest ecosystems with their flora and fauna are taught.

   

  UNIT 4: Human Body: Endocrine, Circulatory, and Nervous System

  Endocrine system
