What is BIOLOGY?
BIOLOGY definition
• A branch of knowledge that deals with living organisms and
vital processes.
• The science of life or living matter in all its forms and
phenomena, especially with reference to origin, growth,
reproduction, structure, and behavior.
• Biology is the study of life and living organisms, from one-
celled creatures to the most complex living organism of all —
the human being. Biology includes the study of genes and
cells that give living things their special characteristics.

TRIVIA
• Viruses possess genes, evolve by natural selection (adapt to their
environment), and can replicate themselves. On the other hand,
viruses are not composed of cells, do not metabolize, and are
unable to replicate without a host. At present, therefore, while
viruses are generally talked about and referred to as living beings,
scientists generally considered them to be in an entirely different
category of their own.

Editor's Notes

  • #7 Biologists study the structure, function, growth, origin, evolution and distribution of living organisms.
  • #12 Living things are composed of cells As defined in Cell Theory, the cell is the unit of structure, physiology, and organization in living things. Every life form begins with one cell.
  • #13 Living Things Have Different Levels of Cellular Organization Through the process of cell division within organisms, the process of "differentiation" occurs. This means that cells will begin to change, or "differ." from one another and each cell type will perform different "jobs" such as skin cells, brain cells, nerve cells, etc.
  • #14 Living Things Use Energy (Metabolism) All organisms must have a metabolic system which provides them with the energy to perform different tasks. Plants generally obtain energy from the sun through the process of photosynthesis, while animals ingest food for energy production. Metabolism-The conversion of food/fuel to energy to run cellular processes, the conversion of food/fuel to building blocks for proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and some carbohydrates, and the elimination of nitrogenous wastes.
  • #15 Living Things Are Homeostatic Homeostasis is the stable regulation of an organism's internal state. A living organism controls things like temperature, heartbeat, and hydration. Homeostasis - is the tendency of organisms to auto-regulate and maintain their internal environment in a stable state.
  • #16 Living Things Respond to Their Environment Living organisms exhibit "behavior," which is in its most basic form a set of responses to various external stimuli. For example, certain plants may turn their leaves towards the sun to better obtain energy. Likewise, animals will contract away from a source of pain.
  • #17 Living Things Grow All living organisms grow and change. They increase in size through one of two methods - cell division and cell enlargement.
  • #18 Living Things Reproduce or Have DNA All living organisms must be able to reproduce in order to ensure the survival of their respective species. The most often cited exception to this rule was the mule! Mules are the sterile offspring of a donkey and a horse. Two mules, therefore, cannot mate and reproduce themselves. However, mules are indeed living creatures. This characteristic therefore has been adapted to include the presence of DNA.
  • #19 Living Things Move All living things are capable of some degree of locomotion. This may be walking and running for animals, or the simple movement of a plant's leaves throughout the day. On the simplest level, this characteristic applies even to the movement of cells within a living organism.
  • #20 Living Things Adapt to Their Environment The ability of a species to survive and thrive is dependent upon organisms ability to adapt to changes in their environment. The process of evolution, in fact, can be boiled down simply to the process of change through time in response to environmental change.
  • #22 There has been much debate about whether or not the virus should be considered a living organism. 1. Living things are composed of cells 2. Living Things Have Different Levels of Cellular Organization
  • #23 One of the most distinctive features of life is that, it is highly organized into a hierarchy of structural levels.
  • #24 Each level is made of components of lower level and itself becomes a component of higher level.
  • #25 Each level is made of components of lower level and itself becomes a component of higher level.
  • #26 Organism –highly organized form of living nature. This term first appeared in French dictionary (1729) and the stated meaning is an ensemble of organs that constitutes a living thing. The study of life extends from the entire planet earth to the microscopic units of cells and molecules. 1. Living things are composed of cells 2. Living Things Have Different Levels of Cellular Organization biosphere –consists of all the environments on earth that support life-most regions of land, bodies of water and the lower atmosphere ecosystem- consists of all the organisms living in a particular area and the non- living, physical components of the environment with which the organisms interact(ex. air, soil, water, sunlight). community – entire array of organisms inhabiting an ecosystem (ex. coastal/marine ecosystem-fish, insects, mollusks, worms, many different kinds of plants, fungi, and microscopic organisms such as protists, algae and bacteria. population – interacting group of individuals of one species organism – an individual living thing organ system – consists of several organs that work together in performing a specific function(s) organ – made-up of several tissues, each with specific function and made-up of similar cells tissue – made-up of cells with similar structure and function(s) cell – unit of living matter separated from its environment by a boundary called a membrane or wall organelle – a structure that performs a specific function in a cell molecule – a cluster of atoms held together by chemical bonds (ex. DNA, protein, glucose, amino acid)
  • #28 It is believed that Zacharias probably had helped his father, Hans (spectacle-maker), when he was still young. They made microscopes by placing several lenses together, and discovered that objects were further enlarged upon viewing.
  • #29 Cork tree, cork, cork composition,
  • #30 Cellula- because he was reminded of the little rooms in the monastery.
  • #31 Leeuwenhoek used his microscope to observe specimens such as bacteria, blood cell, and protists
  • #32 1695 – first draw an illustration of blood cells; 1658 - Jan Swammerdam was the first person to observe red blood cells under a microscope. 1677 - Sperm cell. 1676 - observed water closely and was surprised to see tiny organisms - the first bacteria observed by man – “animalcules”
  • #35 A century passed before several improvements on the scrapbook were made. These microscope were used by Matthias Schleiden and Theodore Schwann. Schleiden published his research in 1838, studying diff. types of plants under the microscope. A year later, Schwann published his study of several slides of animals. Physiology - a branch of biology that deals with the normal function of living organism and their parts.
  • #36 A century passed before several improvements on the scrapbook were made. These microscope were used by Matthias Schleiden and Theodore Schwann. Schleiden published his research in 1838, studying diff. types of plants under the microscope. A year later, Schwann published his study of several slides of animals. Physiology - a branch of biology that deals with the normal function of living organism and their parts.
  • #37 The last postulate was eventually proven by Rudolf Virchow upon studying how cells played a role in body diseases. “Cells arise from pre-existing cells” It was believed, however, that this discovery was initially made by Robert Remak, Jewish scientist, in 1855, when he tried to prove the idea of cell division by hardening the cell membrane.
  • #39 The cell theory greatly disproved the theory of Spontaneous generation, a theory which states that organisms can come from nonliving sources.
  • #40 Zaccharias Janssen (Spectacle maker/Hans Lippershey – Microscope Schleiden and Schwann/German scientist who states that except for the origin for of life all “cells arise (thru cell division) from pre-existing cells” Virchow - This forms the basis of the Cell Theory Of Biology( central unifying theory for biology)
  • #41 Prior studies were initially done to test the validity of Spontaneous generation
  • #42 The open jar eventually had maggots. No maggots in tightly sealed jar. Some maggots were present on the cloth cover of the other jar. Conclusion: Maggots can only come from something alive.
  • #43 People already believed that boiling could kill microorganisms.
  • #44 The open jar eventually had maggots. No maggots in tightly sealed jar. Some maggots were present on the cloth cover of the other jar. Conclusion: Maggots can only come from something alive.
