UNIT 1 DIVERSITY IN THE LIVING WORLD Chapter 1 The Living World Chapter 2 Biological Classification Chapter 3 Plant Kingdom Chapter 4 Animal Kingdom Biology is the science of life forms and living processes. The living world comprises an amazing diversity of living organisms. Early man could easily perceive the difference between inanimate matter and living organisms. Early man deified some of the inanimate matter (wind‚ sea‚ fire etc.) and some among the animals and plants. A common feature of all

Keith B. Kofoed Biology 1407 Horizontal Gene Transfer Responsible for Carotenoid Production in Aphids Horizontal Gene Transfer Horizontal gene transfer (referred to as HGT for the rest of the paper) is said to have occurred when an organism successfully incorporates genetic information from another organism into its own genetic makeup when the first organism is not the offspring of the other organism. HGT‚ or lateral gene transfer (LGT)‚ is used to describe both the artificial and natural

to mosses (Phylum Bryophyta)‚ the vascular plant sporophyte is dominant over AND is functionally independent of the gametophyte. • Conductive (vascular) tissues are universal AND are present in the sporophyte (not the gametophyte). • Although mosses live in moist environments (at least some of the time)‚ some vascular plants have acquired relative independence of free water. • Some vascular plants survive in harsh conditions (including hot and cool deserts). Ferns belong to the Phylum Pterophyta
