  3. Answers

  4. OBJECTIVES 1. Briefly describe unifying themes that pervade the science of biology. 2. Diagram the hierarchy of structural levels in biology. 3. Explain how the properties of life emerge from complex organization. 4. Describe seven emergent properties associated with life. 5. Distinguish between holism and reductionism. 6. Explain how technological breakthroughs contributed to the formulation of the cell theory and our current knowledge of the cell. 7. Distinguish between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. 8. Explain, in their own words, what is meant by "form fits function." 9. List the five kingdoms of life and distinguish among them. 10. Briefly describe how Charles Darwin's ideas contributed to the conceptual framework of biology. 11. Outline the scientific method. 12. Distinguish between inductive and deductive reasoning. 13. Explain how science and technology are interdependent

  5. Why study themes of Biology? • Biology is an ever expanding body of knowledge • too much to memorize it all • need to _____________ ________________________________________ • create a framework upon which to organize new knowledge • _____________________________________________________ are the key to understanding the nature of living organisms

  6. Unifying Themes • Emergent Properties~ hierarchy of life • The Cell~ all organism’s basic structure • Heritable Information~ DNA • Structure & Function~ form and function • Environmental Interaction~ organisms are open systems • Regulation~ feedback mechanisms • Unity & Diversity~ universal genetic code • Evolution~ biology’s core theme; differential reproductive success • Scientific Inquiry~ observation; testing; repeatability • Science, Technology & Society~ functions of our world

  7. Emergent Properties/Characteristics of Life • ___________________________________. Organisms are highly organized, and other characteristics of life emerge from this complex organization. • ___________________________________. All living organisms are made of cells • Reproduction. Organisms reproduce; life comes only from life (biogenesis). • ___________________________________. and Development. • ___________________________________.

  8. 6. ______________________________ Utilization. Organisms take in and transform energy to do work, including the maintenance of their ordered state. 7. ______________________________ to Environment. Organisms respond to stimuli from their environment. 8. ______________________________. Organisms regulate their internal environment to maintain a steady-state, even in the face of a fluctuating external environment. 9. ______________________________ Adaptation. Life evolves in response to interactions between organisms and their environment.

  9. I. Life’s Hierarchical Order • The living world is a hierarchy, with each level of biological structure building on the level below it

  10. I. Hierarchy of Organization • ______________________________________ • Molecule • Organelle • ______________________________________ • Tissues • ______________________________________ • Organism

  11. Levels of organization beyond the individual organism: ______________________________ Localized group of organisms belonging to the same species Community Populations of species living in the same area Ecosystems An energy-processing system ofi community interactions that include abiotic environmental factors Biosphere The sum of all the planet's ecosystems

  12. Check Point • Diagram the hierarchy of structural levels in biology beginning with an Atom.

  13. Form follows function • The alignment of ______________________________________ & ______________________________________ is seen at all levels of biology organism organ cell organelle

  14. II. Cells are an organism’s basic units of structure and function • Lowest level of structure capable of performing all activities of life. • All organisms are composed of cells. • unicellular or multi cellular • The invention of the microscope led to the discovery of the cell and the formulation • of the cell theory. • Robert ______________________________________(1665) examination of cork- tiny boxes which he called "cells" (really cell walls). • Anton van ______________________________________(1600's) used the microscope to observe living organisms • Matthias ______________________________________ and Theodor ______________________________________(1839) ~all living things are made of cells. • This formed the basis for the ______________________________________.

  15. Two major kinds of cells • ______________________________________ cell = Cell lacking membrane-bound organelles and a membrane-enclosed nucleus. • ______________________________________ and ______________________________________ • Generally much smaller than eukaryotic cells • Contains DNA that is not separated from the rest of the cell, as there is no membrane-bound nucleus • Most have tough external ______________________________________

  16. Two major kinds of cells • ______________________________________ cell = Cell with a membrane-enclosed nucleus and membrane-enclosed Organelles. • ______________________________________, plants, ______________________________________, and animals • DNA is segregated from the rest of the cell within the nucleus • Some cells have a tough cell wall outside the plasma membrane (e.g., plant • cells). ______________________________________ cells lack cell walls.

  17. Check Point • Explain how technological breakthroughs contributed to the formulation of the cell theory and our current knowledge of the cell.

  18. Check Point • Distinguish between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

  19. III. Reproduction • Asexual • Binary Fission~ bacteria • Sexual • Gametes • Fruiting Bodies • Flowers • ______________________________________

  20. IV. Growth and Development • Growth • Development • Metamorphosis • Puberty

  21. V. Heredity • ______________________________________ • ______________________________________ in the form of DNA • ______________________________________– the genetic material – carries biological information from one generation to the next T R A I T You can make more,a lot like you!

  22. Heredity

  23. Heredity • DNA • _____________________________________ • _____________________________________ • Role of DNA

  24. VI. Energy Transfer • Life is an open system • need input of energy • ______________________________________ flows through • energy comes in,energy goes out • need a constant input • need input of materials • ______________________________________ are recycled around & around nutrients

  25. Check Point • What type of energy enters the atmosphere? • What type of energy leaves the atmosphere?

  26. Energy utilization You think they’re eating…They’re harvestingenergy!

  27. Organisms are open systems that interact continuously with their Environments • Organisms interact with their environment, which includes other organisms as well as ______________________________________ factors. • Both organism and environment are affected by the interaction between them. • Ecosystem dynamics include two major processes: • 1. ______________________________________ cycling • 2. ______________________________________ flow

  28. VII. Responsiveness • _____________________________________ • Response • Nervous System • Endocrine System • Electrical Impulses

  29. VIII. Homeostasis • Organisms need to maintain a “steady state” in the face of changing conditions • maintain ______________________________________ • achieve this through ______________________________________ • monitor the body like a thermostat • turn on when it’s needed, off when its not

  30. Feedback • ______________________________________ feedback speeds a process _____________ • ______________________________________ feedback slows a process ______________________________________ • Organisms and cells also use chemical mediators to help regulate processes

  31. Feedback Regulation: Negative • Accumulation of an end product of a process ____________________________that process • Example: sugar breakdown generates ATP; excess ATP inhibits an enzyme near the beginning of the pathway

  32. Feedback Regulation: Positive • An end product speeds ___________its production • Example: blood clotting in response to injury

  33. Examples of Regulation • The hormone insulin, for example, signals cells in vertebrate organisms to take up glucose. As a result, blood glucose levels go down. • In certain forms of diabetes mellitus, insulin is deficient and cells do not take up glucose as they should, and as a result, blood glucose levels remain high.

  34. Provide an example of positive and negative feedback processes. • Ex. Positive~ During pregnancy contractions increase until the baby is delivered.

  35. Metabolism • Sum of all ______________________________________ __________________________________in an organism • ______________________________________ • Activation energy • Anabolism- ______________________________________ • Catabolism- ______________________________________ down

  36. Metabolism

  37. Charles Darwin IX. Evolution • Core theme of biology

  38. Evolution explains unity & diversity • Unity • what do organisms have in common & why do similarities exist? • common biochemistry & physiology • evolutionary relationships • connected through common ancestor • Diversity • but why are there differences? • natural selection • adaptations allow different individuals to survive in different environments

  39. "Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution." -- Theodosius DobzhanskyMarch 1973 Geneticist, Columbia University (1900-1975)

  40. Examples • Bacterial resistance to _____________________________________ • Peppered Moths

  41. Taxonomy

  42. Need for a universal system Carolus____________________________________ Three Domains __________________________________ __________________________________ __________________________________ _________________________________ most inclusive _________________________________ _________________________________ _________________________________ _________________________________ _________________________________ _________________________________ Taxonomy

  43. 3 Domains of Life- 6 Kingdoms Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya Bacteria Archaea Eukarya

  44. Organizing systems • Making sense out of the diversity • Hierarchical scheme Eastern gray squirrel Sciurus carolinensis

  45. Binomial Nomenclature Scientific Name ___________________-___________________ Examples ___________________________________________________________ System is based on Phylogenetic relationships. Scientific Name

  46. Science as a process of inquiry

  47. Science as a process of inquiry • Built on repeatable observations & testable, _________________________________ hypotheses

  48. Scientific Method • Process which outlines a series of steps used to answer questions. • Not a rigid procedure. • Based on the conviction that natural phenomena have natural causes. • Requires evidence to logically solve problems. • The key ingredient of the scientific process is the _________________________________- _________________________________ method
