Study Notes

Unity and Diversity of Life

  • A major theme in biology is the explanation of the unity and diversity of life
  • This theme unifies biology as a single, coherent field

Cellular Basis of Life

  • The shared characteristic of cells as the basic unit of life unifies biology
  • Cellular structure and function allow organisms to move, grow, and reproduce

Levels of Organization

  • Biologists study life at multiple levels of organization, including:
    • Molecules
    • Cells
    • Organ systems
    • Organisms
    • Populations
    • Communities
    • Ecosystems
    • Biosphere

Subdisciplines in Biology

  • Biologists define subdisciplines within biology based on:
    • Scale of organization
    • Types of organisms
    • Biological processes
    • Specific techniques or approaches
