The difference between a weighted and an unweighted GPA is that an unweighted GPA gives equal value to every course/credit hour, while a weighted GPA takes some account of the expected "academic rigor" of the courses.So if you were taking only Biology and Gym and you got an A in one and an F in the other, your unweighted GPA would be the same no matter which course was the A and which one was the F. However, a person whose A was in Biology would likely have a higher weighted GPA than a person whose A was in Gym.
For details of the exact weighting scheme used by your school, talk to your guidance counselor. I'm not sure what you mean by "for marine biology", but if you're applying to a college and hoping to major in marine biology, then perhaps there's a specific scheme they want used for weighting (presumably one which rates sciences in general and biology in particular high, language and social studies lower, "vocational" courses like typing or accounting lower still, and band/gym/etc. not at all). But again, talk to your guidance counselor/advisor to see.

What SAT score is needed to get into Winston Salem State University?
900(critical reading & math only) 2.5 unweighted, 3.0 weighted, depending on your major. if computer science,nursing or biology major a much higher GPA is needed. 3.0 unweighted preferred! 68% of the freshman, 2008 profile were accepted.
How do you convert your regular grade to an AP weighted grade?
AP courses add on an additional GPA factor of .05 for each course. So for example, if you take AP Biology and AP Chemistry and your unweighted GPA is 3.5, your new GPA would be a 3.6.

Anabolic processes in biology build molecules and structures, while catabolic processes break them down for energy.
What is the difference between Biology and Sciences?
Earth science is the study nonliving things basically. Etc rivers, rocks, minerals, earthquakes.... Where as living environment/Biology is the study of living things and how they work.
