- Biology is the scientific study of life
- There are many levels of biological organization
- The hierarchy of life includes cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organisms, populations, communities, ecosystems, and the biosphere
- All living things share characteristics: organization, metabolism, responsiveness, growth, development, reproduction, adaptation
- There are five kingdoms of life: Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia
- Each organism has a unique and scientifically valid name known as its binomial nomenclature
- Levels of taxonomy include: Domain, Supergroup, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
- Supergroups include: Excavata, Chromalveolata, Rhizaria, Archaeplastida, Amoebozoa, Opisthokonta
- All living things are composed of cells, and all cells come from preexisting cells
- The internal environment of an organism remains relatively stable, within a range that is protective of life
- All living organisms have a common ancestor and are adapted to a particular way of life
- There are three main theories in Biology: cell theory, homeostasis, and evolution
