Biology: The Science of Life
• Biology unifies much of natural science• Living systems are the most complex
chemical systems on Earth• Life is constrained by the properties of
chemistry and physics
• Science is becoming more interdisciplinary– Combining multiple fields
![Page 3: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

• 7 characteristics of all living organisms1. Composed of cells2. Complex and ordered3. Respond to their environment4. Can grow, develop, and reproduce5. Obtain and use energy6. Maintain internal balance7. Allow for evolutionary adaptation
![Page 4: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Living systems show hierarchical organization– Cellular level
• Atoms, molecules, organelles, cells• Cell is the basic unit of life
– Organismal level• Tissues, organs, organ systems

– Populational level• Population, community
– Ecosystem level– Biosphere
• Earth is an ecosystem we call the biosphere
• Each level has emergent properties– Result from interaction of components– Cannot be deduced by looking at parts
themselves– “Life” is an emergent property

The Nature of Science
• Science aims to understand the natural world through observation and reasoning
• Science begins with observations, therefore, much of science is purely descriptive– Classification of all life on Earth– Human genome sequencing
![Page 10: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

phylogenetic tree----a work in progress

• Science uses both deductive and inductive reasoning
• Deductive reasoning uses general principles to make specific predictions
• Inductive reasoning uses specific observations to develop general conclusions
![Page 13: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

• Scientists use a systematic approach to gain understanding of the natural world
– Observation– Hypothesis formation– Prediction– Experimentation– Conclusion
![Page 14: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

15
• A hypothesis is a possible explanation for an observation
• A hypothesis– Must be tested to determine its validity– Is often tested in many different ways– Allows for predictions to be made
• Iterative– Hypotheses can be changed and refined with
new data
![Page 16: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
• Experiment– Tests the hypothesis– Must be carefully designed to test only one
variable at a time– Consists of a test experiment and a control
experiment
![Page 17: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
• Predictions– Hypotheses should make predictions– Predictions provide a way to test the validity
of hypotheses– Hypothesis must be rejected if the experiment
produces results inconsistent with the predictions
– The more experimentally supported predictions a hypothesis makes, the more valid the hypothesis
![Page 18: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Observation and ask questions:
Which of the following questions do you think can be answered scientifically?
1. Does binge drinking cause more brain damage in teenagers then in adults?
2. Is genetically modified corn safe to eat?
3. Do children who wash their hands often and bathe daily have a greater risk of asthma than those who wash their hands less often and bathe every other day?
4. Should endangered species be cloned to prevent extinction?
5. What is the function of spines on cacti?
6. Does the 19-year-old college student develop ulcers because of his stress and fast food diet?

• Philosophical approaches to science– Reductionism
• To break a complex process down to its simpler parts
– Systems biology• Focus on emergent properties that can’t be
understood by looking at simpler parts
![Page 22: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Models in science– Way to organize thought– Parts provided by reductionist approach– Model shows how they fit together– Suggest experiments to test the model

23
• Scientific theory– Is a body of interconnected concepts– Is supported by much experimental evidence and
scientific reasoning– Expresses ideas of which we are most certain
• Law· - A law is a statement of Fact· - Describes an action or a set of actions - Used to predict an effect but does not explain
why the effect occurred.

Unifying Themes in Biology
• Cell theory– All organisms composed of cells– Cells are life’s basic units– All cells come from preexisting cells
24

• Molecular basis of inheritance– Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)– Sequence of 4 nucleotides encode cell’s
information– Gene – discrete unit of information– Genome – entire set of DNA instructions– Continuity of life depends on faithful copying
of DNA into daughter cells
27
![Page 28: Chapt01 lecture](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062613/5451a622af7959b5648b6216/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Structure and function– Study structure to learn function– Know a function – look for that structure in
other organisms– Example
• Receptor on human cell for insulin known• Find similar molecule in a worm• Might conclude this molecule functions the same in
the worm

• Diversity of life arises by evolution– Underlying unity of biochemistry and genetics
argues for life from the same origin event– Diversity due to evolutionary change over
time– 3 domains
• Bacteria – single-celled prokaryote• Archaea – single-celled prokaryote• Eukarya – single-celled or multicellular eukaryote

• Evolutionary conservation– All organisms today descended from a simple
creature 3.5 BYA– Some characteristics preserved – use of DNA– Conservation reflects that they have a
fundamental role

• Cells are information-processing systems– Information in DNA used to direct synthesis of
cellular components• Control of gene expression leads to different cells/
tissue types
– Cells process environmental information• Glucose levels, presence of hormones
– Cells in multicellular organisms must coordinate with each other
