Biology Virus Essay A virus is a microorganism that cannot reproduce without a host. As a result of this‚ there has been a lot of controversy on whether or not a virus is a living or non-living organism. The dictionary.com definition for life is‚ “the condition that distinguishes organisms from inorganic objects and dead organisms‚ being manifested by growth through metabolism‚ reproduction‚ and the power of adaptation to environment through changes originating internally.” Viruses have characteristics

Biology 1010 is a course that introduces students to the basic biological phenomena in all living organisms. It focuses on the different molecular levels of organization‚ heredity in evolution‚ genetics and reproduction. Through this course‚ I was able to master three essential concepts such as Mendel’s Law of Segregation‚ enzymes‚ and photosynthesis. Gregor Mendel was an Augustinian monk that argued that parental traits are passed on to their offspring discrete “heritable factors”. Heritable factors

ESSAY PRACTICE Cycles in Biology A cycle can be defined by a series of repeated steps that produce an end product which is the same as the start product. There are many cycles in biology including cycles that occur inside organisms such as the cardiac cycle‚ calvin cycle and the krebs cycle. There are also biological cycles that occur around us in the outside world such as the carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle. I have decided to focus my essay on the biological cycles that occur inside

increasingly complex models at all levels of biology. This paper shows the innovations in studying biology. It discusses the biological level of organization and it also describes the model that has seem to be found on the said level. It was also discussed on this paper that the complex models that was developed for the past few years must have the new methods and techniques to model it. The journal tackles the level of organization‚ multi-scale in modelling in biology‚ MD of ion channels and heart modelling

Diabetes: The blood glucose concentration of the body is monitored and controlled by the Pancreas. The Pancreas produces the hormone insulin‚ which increases the body’s cells uptake of glucose from the blood. However; sometimes a person is unable to regulate the concentration of glucose in their blood because their Pancreas does not produce the right amount of insulin. This is called Diabetes. Causes of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes: Type 1 diabetes occurs by the pancreas not being able to produce

Cancer What is cancer? Cancer is a disease caused by an uncontrolled division of unusual cells in a part of the body. It is a disease of mitosis‚ which begins when one cell is transformed from a normal cell to a cancerous cell. Mitosis is a type of cell division which has 6 steps (Interphase‚ Prophase‚ Metaphase‚ Anaphase‚ Telophase‚ and Cytokinesis) that result in two daughter cells that are clones of the parent. Cancerous cells do not abide by the normal instructions of mitosis. Instead‚ the

Biology is a natural science concerned with the study of life and living organisms‚ including their structure‚ function‚ growth‚ evolution‚ distribution‚ and taxonomy.[1] Modern biology is a vast and eclectic field‚ composed of many branches and subdisciplines. However‚ despite the broad scope of biology‚ there are certain general and unifying concepts within it which govern all study and research‚ consolidating it into single‚ coherent field. Biology generally recognizes the cell as the basic unit
