Simply put, the living world can be described as the world around us. It comprises all living creatures, plants and microorganisms that we cannot see. It has changed over the course of billions of years but the general composition has remained the same. The main components are still organic and inorganic matter. Living things are divided into five kingdoms: animal, plant, fungi, protist and monera. Living things are divided into five kingdoms: animal, plant, fungi, protist and monera.

El tequila es un destilado originario del municipio de Tequila en el estado de Jalisco, México. Se elabora a partir de la fermentación y destilado al igual que el mezcal, jugo extraído del agave, en particular el llamado agave azul (Agave tequilana), con denominación de origen en cinco estados de la República Mexicana (Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, Tamaulipas y por supuesto en todo el estado de Jalisco ya que en los tres primeros solo se puede producir en algunos municipios, los fronterizos a Jalisco). Es quizás la bebida más conocida y representativa de México en el mundo.
The life sciences comprise the fields of science that involve the scientific study of living organisms – such as microorganisms, plants, animals, and human beings – as well as related considerations like bioethics. While biology remains the centerpiece of the life sciences, technological advances in molecular biology and biotechnology have led to a burgeoning of specializations and interdisciplinary fields.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

1. Biology Teaching <br />Descriptions of the Fields of Biological Science<br />Biology<br />Biology is the branch of science dealing with the study of life. It describes the characteristics, classification, and behaviors of organisms, how species come into existence, and the interactions they have with each other and with the environment. Biology has many specialized areas, covering a wide range of scales, from biochemistry to ecology.<br />Biology has 2 branches:Botany-study of plants Zoology-study of animals<br />What are the fields of Biology?<br />Mammology, <br />entomology<br />, ecology,<br /> environmental sciences,<br /> marine biology, herpatology, <br />cell biology, <br />DNA, genetics, <br />zoology<br /> Various fields of specialization in Biology:Morphology-study of structures and forms of organismsAnatomy-study of parts or structure of organismsPhysiology-study of the normal functions of the parts of an organismCytology-study of structure and function of a cellHistology-study of tissuesEmbryology-study of growth and development of new organismsEcology-study of environment and the interrelationships of the organisms on itTaxonomy-study of classification and naming of plants and animalsGenetics-study of hereditary Evolution-study of origin and differentiation of diff. kinds of an organismPaleontology-study of fossils of living things and their distribution in timeMicrobiology-study of microorganisms3 classifications of Microbiology:1.Bacteriology-study of bacteria2.Virology-study of virus3.Protozoology-study of protozoansClassification according to the specific kind of organism being studied:Entomology-study of insects Helmintology-study of wormsIchthyology-study of fishesOrnitology-study of birdsMammalogy-study of mammalsConchology-study of shellsAnthropology-study of manBio-Chemistry-chemistry of life<br />♥Different fields of biology are:♥ <br />Agriculture - science and practice of producing crops and livestock from the natural resources of the earth. The primary aim of agriculture is to cause the land to produce more abundantly and at the same time to protect it from deterioration and misuse. anatomy - study of the human body A strobiology - The branch of biology concerned with the effects of outer space on living organisms and the search for extraterrestrial life. Bioengineering- biological engineering is a broad-based engineering discipline that deals with bio-molecular and molecular processes, product design, sustainability and analysis of biological systems. Bioinformatics- Information technology as applied to the life sciences, especially the technology used for the collection, storage, and retrieval of genomic data. Biochemistry- study of organic chemistry of compounds and processes occuring in organisms; the effort to understand biology within the context of chemistry. biophysics - biophysics (also biological physics) is an interdisciplinary science that applies the theories and methods of physical sciences to questions of biology. botany - The scientific study of plants and related organisms. Cryobiology- The study of the effects of low temperatures on living organisms. cell biology - The study of the molecular or chemical interactions of biological phenomena. developmental biology - The study of the processes by which an organism develops from a zygote to its full structure. This field includes the study of cellular differentiation as well as body structure development. Ecology- The scientific study of the relationships between plants, animals, and their environment. Evolutionary biology - Evolutionary biology is a subfield of biology concerned with the origin and descent of species, as well as their change over time, i.e. their evolution. genetics - The branch of biology that deals with heredity, especially the mechanisms of hereditary transmission and the variation of inherited characteristics among similar or related organisms. <br />Study of heredity in general and of genes in particular. Modern genetics began in the 19th century with the work of Gregor Mendel, who formulated the basic concepts of heredity. In 1909 the word gene was coined by Wilhelm Johannsen, thus giving genetics its name. In the same year, Thomas Hunt Morgan provided evidence that genes occur on chromosomes and that adjacent genes on the same chromosome form linkage groups. This led to the important discovery that genes affect molecular action at the cell level, as evidenced by human hereditary diseases such as inborn errors of metabolism. Molecular genetics began in earnest in the 1940s when Oswald Avery showed that DNA is the chromosome component that carries genetic information. The molecular structure of DNA was deduced by James D. Watson, Francis Crick, and Maurice Wilkins. These and other developments led to the deciphering of the genetic code of the DNA molecule, which in turn made possible the recombination techniques of genetic engineering, discovered in the 1970s. An understanding of genetics is necessary for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of hereditary diseases, the selective breeding of plants and animals, and the development of industrial processes that use microorganisms.

Microbiology deals with microscopic organisms, some of which consist of only one cell. Some life forms commonly studied in microbiology include bacteria, fungi, prokaryotes and protists. Microbiologists also study the properties and structure of viruses, though they are considered to be biological agents and aren't technically living organisms. <br />Entmologymarine biology - marine biology, study of ocean plants and animals and their ecological relationships. medicine - The science which relates to the prevention, cure, or alleviation of disease. mathematical biology - mathematical biology or biomathematics is an interdisciplinary field of academic study which aims at modelling natural, biological processes using mathematical techniques and tools. It has both practical and theoretical applications in biological research. Neurobiology - The branch of biology that deals with the anatomy and physiology and pathology of the nervous system Paleontology- The study of the forms of life existing in prehistoric or geologic times, as represented by the fossils of plants, animals, and other organisms. pathology- The scientific study of the nature of disease and its causes, processes, development, and consequences. also called pathobiology. physiology - The biological study of the functions of living organisms and their parts. Parasitology- The scientific study of parasites and parasitism.

unborn, embryoquot;
; and -λογία, -logia) is a science which is about the development of an embryo from the fertilization of the ovum to the fetus stage. After cleavage, the dividing cells, or morula, becomes a hollow ball, or blastula, which develops a hole or pore at one end.<br />In bilateral animals, the blastula develops in one of two ways that divides the whole animal kingdom into two halves (see: Embryological origins of the mouth and anus). If in the blastula the first pore ( HYPERLINK quot;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blastoporequot;
quot;
Blastoporequot;
blastopore) becomes the mouth of the animal, it is a protostome; if the first pore becomes the anus then it is a deuterostome. The protostomes include most invertebrate animals, such as insects, worms and molluscs, while the deuterostomes include the vertebrates. In due course, the blastula changes into a more differentiated structure called the gastrula.<br />The gastrula with its blastopore soon develops three distinct layers of cells (the germ layers) from which all the bodily organs and tissues then develop:<br />The innermost layer, or endoderm, gives rise to the digestive organs, lungs and bladder.<br />The middle layer, or mesoderm, gives rise to the muscles, skeleton and blood system.<br />The outer layer of cells, or ectoderm, gives rise to the nervous system and skin.<br />In humans, the term embryo refers to the ball of dividing cells from the moment the zygote implants itself in the uterus wall until the end of the eighth week after conception. Beyond the eighth week, the developing human is then called a fetus. Embryos in many species often appear similar to one another in early developmental stages. The reason for this similarity is because species have a shared evolutionary history. These similarities among species are called homologous structures, which are structures that have the same or similar function and mechanism having evolved from a common ancestor.<br />
