Buzzle – Zoology Terms – Glossary of Biology Terms and Definitions http://www.buzzle.com/articles/biology-terms-glossary-of-biology-terms-and- definitions.html#ZoologyGlossary Biology is the branch of science concerned with the study of life: structure, growth, functioning and evolution of living things. This discipline of science comprises three sub-disciplines that are botany (study of plants), Zoology (study of animals) and Microbiology (study of microorganisms). This vast subject of science involves the usage of myriads of biology terms, which are essential to be comprehended correctly. People involved in the science field encounter innumerable jargons during their study, research or work. Moreover, since science is a part of everybody's life, it is something that is important to all individuals. A Abdomen: Abdomen in mammals is the portion of the body which is located below the rib cage, and in arthropods below the thorax. It is the cavity that contains stomach, intestines, etc. Abscission: Abscission is a process of shedding or separating part of an organism from the rest of it. Common examples are that of, plant parts like leaves, fruits, flowers and bark being separated from the plant. Accidental: Accidental refers to the occurrences or existence of all those species that would not be found in a particular region under normal circumstances. Acclimation: Acclimation refers to the morphological and/or physiological changes experienced by various organisms to adapt or accustom themselves to a new climate or environment. Active Transport: The movement of cellular substances like ions or molecules by traveling across the membrane, towards a higher level of concentration while consuming energy.

The Unicellular and Colonial Organisms Prokaryotic And
The Unicellular and Colonial Organisms Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells As you know, the building blocks of life are cells. Prokaryotic cells are those cells that do NOT have a nucleus. They mostly include bacteria and archaea. These cells do not have membrane-bound organelles. Eukaryotic cells are those that have a true nucleus. That would include plant, animal, algae, and fungal cells. As you can see, to the left, eukaryotic cells are typically larger than prokaryotic cells. Today in lab, we will look at examples of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic unicellular organisms that are commonly found in pond water. When examining pond water under a microscope… The unpigmented, moving microbes will usually be protozoans. Greenish or golden-brown organisms will typically be algae. Microorganisms that are blue-green will be cyanobacteria. As you can see below, living things are divided into 3 domains based upon shared characteristics. Domain Eukarya is further divided into 4 Kingdoms. Domain Kingdom Cell type Organization Nutrition Organisms Absorb, Unicellular-small; Prokaryotic Photsyn., Archaeacteria Archaea Archaebacteria Lacking peptidoglycan Chemosyn. Unicellular-small; Absorb, Bacteria, Prokaryotic Peptidoglycan in cell Photsyn., Bacteria Eubacteria Cyanobacteria wall Chemosyn. Ingestion, Eukaryotic Unicellular or colonial Protozoa, Algae Protista Photosynthesis Fungi, yeast, Fungi Eukaryotic Multicellular Absorption Eukarya molds Plantae Eukaryotic Multicellular Photosynthesis Plants Animalia Eukaryotic Multicellular Ingestion Animals Prokaryotic Organisms – the archaea, non-photosynthetic bacteria, and cyanobacteria Archaea - Microorganisms that resemble bacteria, but are different from them in certain aspects. Archaea cell walls do not include the macromolecule peptidoglycan, which is always found in the cell walls of bacteria. Archaea usually live in extreme, often very hot or salty environments, such as hot mineral springs or deep-sea hydrothermal vents.

Activity 3: Six Kingdoms Brochure
Activity 3: Six Kingdoms Brochure Objective: You will demonstrate your knowledge of the six kingdoms of organisms by gathering information (from your class notes, the internet, and the biology textook) and creating a brochure on the six kingdoms in which scientists classify organisms. Your brochure will be organized as follows: 1. Making the Brochure- the brochure is made of one piece of paper. Fold the paper into thirds. 2. Cover- your cover should have a picture and an appropriate title. Your name should be written in the bottom right corner of the cover. 3. Inside the Brochure- inside your brochure, you should have one section for each of six kingdoms. Use the front and back of the paper. Since there will only be five open sections left in the brochure, you should place both the Eubacteria Kingdom and Archaebacteria Kingdom in the same section. You must include the following information for each of the six kingdoms: • Are the organisms unicellular (one cell) or multicellular (many cells) or both? • Do they have a nucleus in their cells? • Do they make their own food or get it from other organisms? • Other important characteristics • A picture or a diagram of sample organisms (one or a few) The Kingdom Fungi The Kingdom Fungi includes some of the most important organisms, both in terms of their ecological and economic roles. By decomposing dead material, they continue the cycle of nutrients through ecosystems. In addition, most plants could not grow without the fungi, or mycorrhizae, that live in their roots and supply essential nutrients. Other fungi provide numerous drugs (such as penicillin and other antibiotics), foods like mushrooms, truffles and morels, and the bubbles in bread (yeast), champagne, and beer.

A Knowledge-Centric E-Research Platform for Marine Life and Oceanographic Research
A KNOWLEDGE-CENTRIC E-RESEARCH PLATFORM FOR MARINE LIFE AND OCEANOGRAPHIC RESEARCH Ali Daniyal, Samina Abidi, Ashraf AbuSharekh, Mei Kuan Wong and S. S. R. Abidi Department of Computer Science, Dalhousie University, 6050 Univeristy Ave, Halifax, Canada Keywords: e-Research, Knowledge management, Web services, Marine life, Oceanography. Abstract: In this paper we present a knowledge centric e-Research platform to support collaboration between two diverse scientific communities—i.e. Oceanography and Marine Life domains. The Platform for Ocean Knowledge Management (POKM) offers a services oriented framework to facilitate the sharing, discovery and visualization of multi-modal data and scientific models. To establish interoperability between two diverse domain, we have developed a common OWL-based domain ontology that captures and interrelates concepts from the two different domain. POKM also provide semantic descriptions of the functionalities of a range of e-research oriented web services through a OWL-S service ontology that supports dynamic discovery and invocation of services. POKM has been deployed as a web-based prototype system that is capable of fetching, sharing and visualizing marine animal detection and oceanographic data from multiple global data sources. 1 INTRODUCTION (POKM)—that offers a suite of knowledge-centric services for oceanographic researchers to (a) access, To comprehensively understand how changes to the share, integrate and operationalize the data, models ecosystem impact the ocean’s physical and and knowledge resources available at multiple sites; biological parameters (Cummings, 2005) (b) collaborate in joint scientific research oceanographers and marine biologists—termed as experiments by sharing resources, results, expertise the oceanographic research community—are seeking and models; and (c) form a virtual community of more collaboration in terms of sharing domain- researchers, marine resource managers, policy specific data and knowledge (Bos, 2007).
