Biology is the scientific study of life and living organisms. It involves understanding the structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution of living organisms. The document outlines several key aspects of biology including the importance of biology in areas like disease treatment and environmental management. It also discusses the main fields and areas of study within biology such as anatomy, physiology, ecology, and genetics. Finally, it covers the scientific method and how biologists employ processes like making observations and hypotheses, experimental design, data analysis, and conclusion drawing to make discoveries about living things.
For ninth grade, this is the first chapter and purpose to introduce them biological terms and about the Islamic beliefs about life; and also to know about the Muslim scientists

Science plays a fundamental role in modern society. But what exactly is science? In philosophy this question is known as the demarcation problem (Popper, Kuhn, Laudan and others).

Biology is the branch of science which deals with the study of living organism and their life processes. It covers all aspect of the study of living creatures like growth, structure, occurrence, classification, ecology, economics importance, external form, organization, internal structure, nutrition among others
This is just a little intro to our high school psych course. It covers the early pioneers of psychology as well as the various schools of thought regarding psych.

this topic explains the nature of pain, signs and symptoms of pain, different types of pain, factors influencing pain, assessment of pain and pharmacological and non pharmacological management of pain.
Introduction:
Welcome to "Biochemistry Techniques 101: A Beginner's Lecture" presented by Tahaa Saeed. In this video, we'll dive into the fundamental techniques used in biochemistry, perfect for those new to the field. Whether you're a student or just curious about the subject, this lecture will provide you with a solid foundation.
Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on our latest biochemistry tutorials! Share this video with anyone who's interested in mastering the basics of biochemistry techniques.
This slide explains term biostatistics, important terms used in the field of bio statistics and important applications of biostatistics in the field of agriculture, physiology, ecology, genetics, molecular biology, taxonomy, etc.
Biology investigatory projects foster critical thinking and scientific inquiry. They enhance students' understanding of biological concepts, encourage hands-on learning, and develop research skills. These projects promote a deeper appreciation for the intricacies of life sciences, preparing students for future scientific endeavors and applications in various fields.

2. What is Biology?
It is derived from 2 Greek words :
Bios logos
life The study of
Biology is …
It’s a scientific
study
The study of life or living things
3. The importance of Biology
• Improved understanding on functions of
organisms.
• Improved understanding on causes of disease.
• Finding treatment for diseases.
• Improved understanding on ecology.
• Better management on environment problems.
• Improved quality and production of food.

7. The characteristics of living things?
• Cell is basic unit of life.
• They are highly organised.
• They response to stimuli.
• Nutrition – they feed to obtain energy.
• Respiration – they break down food to obtain energy.
• Metabolism – they are capable to increasing in size and
number.
• Reproduction – they produce offspring.
• Excretion – they expelled wastes.
• They are able to adapt to different environments.

9. THE SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION
• Biologist employ the scientific method to make
certain discoveries about living things.
• The scientific method requires the use of
scientific skills which are science process skills
and manipulative skills.
SPS
Observing, classifying,
inferring, interpreting
data, controlling
variables
10. Scientifics Investigation
The Scientific Method:
• Defining the problem
• Making hypothesis
• Planning the experiment
• Controlling variables
• Conducting the experiment
• Recording the results
• Analysing the results
• Interpreting the data
• Drawing conclusion
• Prepare the report
11. How to identify a problem?
Observing a specific phenomenon and
questioning.
How to form a hypothesis?
• Interpretation based on an observation
• Making an inference
• Formulating a logical explanation to the
observation
12. How to plan an investigation?
• Reviewing available related information
about the investigation.
• Determining the reagents and equipment
required.
• Determining the financial and time
limitations.
• Writing out the protocols of the experiments
in the investigation.
• Conducting preliminary research on the
hypothesis
13. 3 types of variables that are encountered in an experiment.
Manipulated variable
Responding variable
fixed variable
An independent variable,
which is set at different
values, to test a hypothesis.
A dependent variable, which
is the outcome of an
experiment, due to changes in
manipulative variable.
A parameter that may affect
the outcome of an experiment
should be kept constant
throughout the experiment.
14. How to record data efficiently?
• Tabulation of complex data.
• Graphical presentation of data,
especially important in showing the
connection between manipulative
and responding variables.
• Diagrammatic presentation with
clear labelling.
15. How to analyse and interpret data for all the
data collected in an experiment?
• Accurate calculation.
• Determine the association between
manipulative and responding variables.
• Compare with previous reports.
• Explore any hidden information.
• Understand the limitations of the
experiment conducted.
16. How to make conclusion?
• Keep in short and simple (KISS).
• Stage whether the results support the
hypothesis.
• Suggest steps to extend the investigation to
obtain more accurate data or to further
confirm the hypothesis if necessary.
• Give proper reasons if the experiment is
failed.
17. The typical format for the report of an experiment.
• Title
• Objective
• Hypothesis,
• Variables
• Materials and Apparatus
• Technique
• Procedure
• Results
• Data analysis
• Discussion
• Conclusion
