BIOLOGY Biology is the study of life -- life in all of its grandeur. From the very small algae to the very large elephant‚ life has a certain wonder about it. With that in mind‚ how do we know if something is living? Is a virus alive or dead? What are the characteristics of life? These are all very important questions with equally important answers. Characteristics of Life Living tings include both the visible worlds of animals and plants as well as the invisible world of bacteria and viruses.On

In the book of biology of Mrtinez and Nazareno‚ there are nine characteristics of life just said and those are : a. Living things are highly organized and contain many complex chemical substances ; b. Living things are made up of one or more cells‚ which are

Temperature range Background: All organisms are adapted to a particular environment with its characteristic temperature range. The temperature range allows the organism’s enzymes to control its metabolism by operating at their optimum efficiency within this range. Some organisms are adapted to live at high temperatures (80 - 100oC) and these are called thermophiles
