cells.[4] Cells emerged on Earth at least 3.5 billion years ago. Cell Theory: In biology‚ cell theory is a scientific theory that describes the properties of cells‚ the basic unit of structure in every living thing. The initial development of the theory‚ during the mid-17th century‚ was made possible by advances in microscopy; the study of cells is called cell biology. Cell theory is one of the foundations of biology. The three parts to the cell theory are as described below: All living organisms

integration through hormones. In this chapter‚ you will learn about the neural system of human‚ mechanisms of neural coordination like transmission of nerve impulse‚ impulse conduction across a synapse and the physiology of reflex action. 316 BIOLOGY 21.1 NEURAL SYSTEM The neural system of all animals is composed of highly specialised cells called neurons which can detect‚ receive and transmit different kinds of stimuli. The neural organisation is very simple in lower invertebrates. For

INTRODUCTION TO SITE INVESTIGATION Site investigation is the study of the local environment and ground conditions on and around a specific piece of land. This is used to ascertain the suitability of a site for a proposed building project: The condition & strength of the soil Details of any man-made or natural hazards present on the site The economic viability of the site There may be three components‚ the walkover survey‚ the desk study and the ground investigation. 1.

Biology- Maintaining a Balance Summary 1. Most organisms are active in a limited temperature range 1. identify the role of enzymes in metabolism‚ describe their chemical composition and use a simple model to describe their specificity on substrates Enzymes are proteins which act as catalysts in living things (they lower the amount of energy needed for a reaction‚ therefore increasing rate of reaction). Enzymes speed up reactions but are not used up by them. Enzymes catalyze only one

DNA almost immediately transformed the American Criminal Justice System. Law Enforcement‚ District Attorneys‚ Defense Attorneys‚ Criminal Court and Family Court all work with DNA on a daily basis. DNA that can be utilized in a criminal investigation may be collected from a crime scene in many different forms: skin tissue‚ hair‚ blood‚ semen‚ saliva‚ vaginal fluid‚ anything that may be collected from a human that may contain cells can be utilized and tested for DNA. DNA testing is the most

Johnson Introduction to Biology May 9‚ 2013 A New System for Cancer Detection This article summarizes a new technique that would allow for cancer cell detection without being invasive to a person’s body. It states that currently‚ human cancer cell detection is conducted through a person being cut on or biopsied. This new procedure allows for humans bodily fluids to be utilized in detecting cancer cells. Chandra states‚ “While current
