Biology is the study of living things and their interactions with their environments. All living things share characteristics of organization, reproduction, growth and development, and adaptation. Biologists use scientific methods like experiments, hypotheses, and controlled data collection to answer questions and develop theories about life. Their work is done both in labs and nature, and aims to increase knowledge while sometimes helping address problems, though not all.

4. (cont)
● Biology is the organized study of living things and their interactions with their
natural and physical environments
● All living things have four characteristics in common: organization,
reproduction, growth and development, and the ability to adjust to the
environment

5. The Methods Of Biology
● Control
● Data
● Dependent Variable
● Experiment
● Hypothesis
● Independent Variable
● Safety Symbol
● Scientific Methods
● Theory

6. (cont)
● Biologists use controlled experiments to obtain data that either do or do not
support a hypothesis. By publishing the results and conclusions of an
experiment, a scientist allows others to try to verify the results. Repeated
verification over time leads to the development of a theory
● Scientific methods are used by scientists to answer questions or solve
problems.Scientific methods include observing, making a hypothesis,
collecting data, publish-ing results, forming a theory, developing new
hypotheses, and revising the theory.

7. The Nature Of Biology
● Ethics
● Technology

8. (cont)
● Biologists do their work in laboratories and in the field. They collect both
quantitative and qualitative data from their experiments and investigations
● Scientists conduct investigations to increase knowledge about the natural
world. Scientific results may help solve some problems, but not all
