Study Notes
Energy and Photosynthesis
- The sun generates energy as light, which is then absorbed by plants.
- Plants convert light energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis, producing carbohydrates.
Characteristics of Life
- Life organisms can be classified into six categories.
- One characteristic of life is ordering, which refers to the ability of an organism to maintain homeostasis, regulating factors such as temperature, pH, and concentration of salts.
Branches of Biology
- Biology has various branches, including:
- Characteristics of life
- Levels of organization in life
- Interaction of life organisms with the environment
Cell Theory
- The cell theory was established by two scientists, T. Schwann and M. Schleiden.
- The theory states that all living creatures, both plants and animals, originate from at least one cell.
This quiz covers the process of photosynthesis, where plants convert light energy into chemical energy, producing carbohydrates.
