Study Notes
Unifying Theme in Biology
- The primary unifying theme in biology is the concept of evolution, which explains the diversity of life through genetic variation and natural selection.
Eukaryotic Organisms
- Eukaryotic organisms include protists, fungi, plants, and animals.
- Prokaryotes, such as bacteria and archaea, are not classified as eukaryotic organisms.
Primary Unit of Life
- The cell is the fundamental unit of life, making up all living organisms, regardless of being unicellular or multicellular.
Vital Processes of Organisms
- Metabolism encompasses processes such as movement, growth, and reproduction, allowing organisms to utilize energy and resources for survival.
Scientific Approach in Biology
- The scientific method is the standardized approach used by biologists, involving observation, questioning, experimentation, and conclusion to explore natural phenomena.
