This study aimed to conduct a brief literature review and reflection on biology teaching approached the high school grades of Brazilian public schools. With this study it was found that teaching this science is still considered abstract, unrelated facts of reality and alienated from the society in which students are placed, especially when the topics covered are the genetics area. It appears that these threads are considered difficult to understand generating a disposition by a large number of students especially when the contents are technologies and products arising from this area. Therefore, this report suggests that the teaching of biology is every day more, rethought consistently and contextualized front of the student’s reality.
