It defines biodiversity as the variety of life on Earth, including diversity at the genetic, species, and ecosystem levels. The lecture notes cover the three main levels of biodiversity and provides examples. It emphasizes that biodiversity is important to preserve for economic, aesthetic, and scientific reasons. Major threats to biodiversity include habitat loss, overexploitation, climate change, pollution, and invasive species. The document concludes that the Philippines is one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, with over half of its plant and animal species being endemic.
Classical Biotechnology: FERMENTATION
Traditional (classical) biotechnology refers to techniques that have been used for thousands of years, such as fermentation processes. Key applications of fermentation included producing foods like beer, wine, cheese, bread and yogurt. These processes harness microbes like yeast and bacteria to convert sugars into products like ethanol, lactic acid, carbon dioxide and other compounds, allowing foods to be preserved and enhancing flavors. Traditional biotechnology built upon ancient techniques and helped enable major advances in food production and medicine.
