Biology\'s relationship to other sciences Biology the study of life, is a particularly exciting area of science because it is a point of convergence for information and tools from all of the natural sciences. Based your knowledge of biology, indicate whether each of the following statements about living systems is true or false. Cells are composed of chemicals and both the structure and function of cells and requissed by the basic principles of chemistry Scientists have successfully sequenced the entire genome of humans but have not yet sequenced the entire genome of any other species Living systems are the most complex chemical systems on earth Living systems are governed by the same principles of chemistry and physics that govern non-living systems Living organisms contain unique chemical elements which are not found in non-living systems An input of energy is required to maintain the complexity of living systems The energy conversions that take place in living systems are governed by the same laws of thermodynamics that govern non-living systems Solution 1. True. 2. False 3. True 4. True. The principles of chemistry and physics are applied to both living and non-living systems. 5. False. If you look at the periodic table of elements,you will see elements that are found in both living and non living organisms. 6. True. The physiological works going in a living organism are possible due to an input of energy. 7. True. The laws of thermodynamics govern all kinds of energy conversions in both living and non-living systems..
