CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION: TEN THEMES IN THE STUDY OF LIFE

Biologists study life on many different scales of size and time.

It’s not what living things are made of it’s the special way they are put together!

Hierarchy of Biological Organization

Atomic Particles Atoms Precursor molecules

(protons electrons) (SPONCH) (CO2, NH3, H2O, N2)

Metabolic Intermediates Building Block Molecules

(pyruvate, citrate, malate) (monosaccharides,

amino acids, fatty acids,

and nucleotides)

Macromolecules Supramolecular Organelles

(DNA, proteins, lipids (ribosomes, (mitochondria, polysaccharides) microtubules, nucleus enzyme complexes) chloroplasts)

Hierarchy of Biological Organization

Hierarchy of Biological Organization

Cells Tissues Organs

(columnar) (epithelial) (small intestine)

Organ Systems Organism(digestive system) (white tailed deer)

Populations Communities

(all deer in Texas) (all organisms in First Colony)

Ecosystems Biomes

Properties of Life: Order

Reproduction

Growth and Development

Energy Utilization

Response to the Environment

Homeostasis

Evolutionary Adaptation

Classifying Life

Domain ArchaeaMost ancient life forms, have a different DNA code and unusual tRNA’s and coenzymes; most live in extreme environments

Domain Bacteriaall prokaryotes that are not Archaea

Prokaryotic --Eukaryotic

Prokaryotic—no membrane enclosed organelles

Eukaryotic—membrane enclosed organelles

Domain Eukarya Kingdom Protista

Domain Eukarya Kingdom Plantae

Domain Eukarya Kingdom Fungi

Domain Eukarya Kingdom Animalia

1. Kingdom Monera-all prokaryotes, includes domains bacteria & archaea

Eukaryotes: 2. Kingdom Protista-mostly unicellular, few simple multicellular

Multicellular, Eukaryotes: 3. Kingdom Plantae- autotrophs carry on photosynthesis

Heterotrophs which are, Multicellular Eukaryotes 4. Kingdom Fungi- digest then absorb 5. Kingdom Animalia- ingest, digest, then

absorb

Eukaryotic Cilia

Darwin’s theory of Natural Selection

• Overpopulation and thus competition within the species

• Variations-by chance, luck of the draw• “Good variations”- depends on the environment• Survival and increased reproduction• Adaptation or species trait• Evolution to prevent extinction

Observation and Measurement

Idealized Scientific Method

Hypothetico-deductive reasoning

Controlled experiment

Biotechnology: Producing hepatitis vaccine

“DNA evidence”

Are there any animals in this picture?

Why are Archaea and Bacteria placed in different Domains but in the same Kingdom?

• Why different Domains?– They use a different code for amino acids

• Why in the same Kingdom?– These two groups are the only organisms that

lack internal membranes
