Lesley F. Biology 902 November 7‚ 2013 18.1 (1-3) 1a. What are the two goals of systematics? The goal of systematics is to organize living things into groups that have biological meaning. (Taxa or Taxon) 1b. Why do common names of organisms – like daisy or mountain lion – often cause problems for scientists? The common names of organism often cause problems for scientist because common names can change meaning among languages and from place to place. 1c. The scientific

my first glimpse at molecular biology then. But that brief introduction to molecular biology was enough to compel me to the idea that I want to spend my whole life working and conducting research on it. That passion and zeal brought me to where right now I am. I have successfully completed my masters from the Department of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology‚ University of Dhaka. I want to note that very few universities offer courses related to molecular biology here in Bangladesh but University

Biology and Behavior Animal testing is not a problem in today’s society because it is beneficial to humans. It seems unethical to put animals through such pain and torture‚ but if we stopped it completely there would be a large amount of human lives lost. How could this be? The further advancements in medical and technological science is inevitable. Therefore‚ if the testing must be done to learn more about the brain and body‚ which species (animals or man) seems expendable for such testing. The

Biology Revision notes Ecology: 1) Ecosystems‚ sampling and population studies Population: All the individuals of a given species living together in the same area and at the same time. Community: Community: all the individuals of all the species living together in the same area and at the same time. Habitat: The area in which an organism lives within an ecosystem Niche: describes where an organism lives‚ what it does (its role)‚ what it feeds on and how it interacts with other organisms and the

Marine biology I would be an extremely happy man if I could do what I love for the rest of my life.With the many issues going on in our waters such as overfishing‚ pollution‚ and global warming. Marine biologists work hard day in and out to put an end to these terrible things that occur more often that one thinks. Did u know Water covers the 71 percent of the earth. As a kid must of my summers were spent at my family’s lake house and I loved every minute of it. I saw a lot of terrible things

Dear Friend‚ My biology teacher‚ Mrs. Anderson‚ asked me to send you a note about the importance of chemistry in biology. Chemistry is an important part of biology. Modern biology overlaps with chemistry in explaining the structure and function of all cellular processes at the molecular level. Chemical principles are important in modern cell biology because all living cells are made up of chemicals and many chemical processes occur in various living organisms. In biology you learn about living
