This document outlines the syllabus for the Singapore Junior Biology Olympiad (SJBO) Training Course. The syllabus covers 9 topics in biology including biomolecules, cells, plants, animals, genetics, evolution, ecology, biosystematics, and biostatistics. It includes 58 lessons that will teach students about topics such as cellular respiration, photosynthesis, animal anatomy and physiology, heredity, molecular genetics, evolution, and biodiversity. The goal is to prepare students to compete in biology olympiads.
