Chapter 1 Biology: The Study of Life I. What is Biology? A. The Science of Biology Biology: the study of life Organism: anything that possess all the characteristics of life B. Characteristics of Living Things All living things Have an orderly structure Produce offspring Grow and develop Adjust to changes in the environment 1. Living things are organized Organization: orderly structure; cells, tissues, organs, organ systems 2. Living things make more living things Reproduction: production of offspring Species: a group of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring in nature 3. Living things change during their lives Growth: an increase in the amount of living material and the formation of new structures

Ch 22: Descent with Modification Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection (November 24, 1859) Origin of Species- focused biologists? attention on the great diversity of organisms a. Origins and relationships, similarities and differences, geographic distribution, adaptations to surrounding environments b. Presented evidence that the many species of organisms presently inhabiting Earth are descendants of ancestral species that were different from the modern species c. Proposed a mechanism for this evolutionary process Natural Selection Natural Selection- population can change over generations if individuals that possess certain heritable traits leave more offspring than other individuals
