Study Notes

The Study of Biology

  • Biology is the scientific study of life
  • It is a natural science with a broad scope and unifying themes
  • All organisms are composed of cells that process hereditary information
  • Evolution explains the unity and diversity of life
  • Energy processing is crucial for movement, growth, and reproduction
  • Organisms can regulate their internal environments
  • Biologists study life at various levels of organization
  • There are multiple subdisciplines within biology
  • Each subdiscipline is defined by its research questions and tools
  • Biologists use the scientific method for observations and questions
  • They study molecular biology, anatomy, physiology, and evolution
  • The scientific method is used for making observations and posing questions
