What is Biology? CHAPTER 1 What is Biology? Chapter Outline 1.1 SCIENCE AND THE NATURAL WORLD 1.2 BIOLOGY:THE STUDY OF LIFE 1.3 REFERENCES Is this picture a colorful work of abstract art, or is it something else? Imagine shrinking down to a tiny size, so small you could enter a blood vessel. This illustration shows what you might see rushing toward you. Do you know what the red objects are? If you guessed red blood cells, you are right. What about the knobby green objects? Watch out for these! They are viruses that have invaded the blood. However, this image is not scale, in reality viruses are much smaller in relationship to the red blood cells pictured here. When you read this book, you will take an exciting journey into the realm of blood cells, viruses, and just about everything else that is related to life. You will learn how your own body works, what makes living things unique, and what you and viruses have in common. This first chapter explains how scientists learn about the natural world and introduces you to biology, the science of life.

Science and the Natural World www.ck12.org 1.1 Science and the Natural World Lesson Objectives • Identify the goal of science. • Describe how scientists study the natural world. • Explain how and why scientists do experiments. • Describe types of scientific investigations. • Explain what a scientific theory is. Vocabulary • dependent variable • evidence • experiment • hypothesis • independent variable • model • observation • prediction • science • scientific investigation • scientific law • scientific method • scientific theory Introduction Did you ever wonder why giraffes have such long necks or how birds learn to sing their special songs? If you ever asked questions such as these about the natural world, then you were thinking like a scientist. The word science comes from a Latin word that means “knowledge.” Science is a distinctive way of gaining knowledge about the natural world that starts with a question and then tries to answer the question with evidence and logic. Science is an exciting exploration of all the whys and hows that any curious person might have about the world. You can be part of that exploration. Besides your curiosity, all you need is a basic understanding of how scientists think and how science is done, starting with the goal of science. 2 www.ck12.org Chapter 1. What is Biology? The Goal of Science The goal of science is to understand the natural world. To achieve this goal, scientists make certain assumptions. They assume that: • Nature can be understood through systematic study. • Scientific ideas are open to revision. • Sound scientific ideas withstand the test of time. • Science cannot provide answers to all questions. Nature Can Be Understood Scientists think of nature as a single system controlled by natural laws. By discovering natural laws, scientists strive to increase their understanding of the natural world. Laws of nature are expressed as scientific laws. A scientific law is a statement that describes what always happens under certain conditions in nature. An example of a scientific law is the law of gravity, which was discovered by Sir Isaac Newton (see Figure 1.1). The law of gravity states that objects always fall towards Earth because of the pull of gravity. Based on this law, Newton could explain many natural events. He could explain not only why objects such as apples always fall to the ground, but he could also explain why the moon orbits Earth. Isaac Newton discovered laws of motion as well as the law of gravity. His laws of motion allowed him to explain why objects move as they do. FIGURE 1.1 Did Newton discover the law of gravity when an apple fell from a tree and hit him on the head? Probably not, but observations of nature are often the starting point for new ideas about the natural world. Scientific Ideas Can Change Science is more of a process than a set body of knowledge. Scientists are always testing and revising their ideas, and as new observations are made, existing ideas may be challenged. Ideas may be replaced with new ideas that better fit the facts, but more often existing ideas are simply revised. For example, when Albert Einstein developed his theory of relativity, he didn’t throw out Newton’s laws of motion. Instead, he showed that Newton’s laws are a part of a bigger picture. In this way, scientists gradually build an increasingly accurate and detailed understanding of the natural world. Scientific Knowledge Can Withstand the Test of Time Many scientific ideas have withstood the test of time. For example, about 200 years ago, the scientist John Dalton proposed atomic theory—the theory that all matter is made of tiny particles called atoms. This theory is still valid 3 1.1. Science and the Natural World www.ck12.org today. There are many other examples of basic science ideas that have been tested repeatedly and found to be true. You will learn about many of them as you study biology. Science Cannot Answer All Questions Science rests on evidence and logic,

  • An Introduction to Invertebrates 667 Figure 33.3 (Continued) Exploring Invertebrate Diversity
    OVERVIEW Life Without a Backbone 33 At first glance, you might mistake the organism shown in Figure 33.1 for a type of seaweed. But this colorful inhabitant of coral reefs is actually an animal, not an alga. Specifically, it is a species of segmented worm known as a Christmas An Introduction tree worm (Spirobranchus giganteus). The two tree-shaped whorls are tentacles, which the worm uses for gas exchange and for removing small food particles from the surround- to Invertebrates ing water. The tentacles emerge from a tube of calcium car- bonate secreted by the worm that protects and supports its soft body. Light-sensitive structures on the tentacles can detect the shadow cast by a predator, triggering the worm to contract muscles that rapidly withdraw the tentacles into the tube. Christmas tree worms are invertebrates—animals that lack a backbone. Invertebrates account for 95% of known ani- mal species. They occupy almost every habitat on Earth, from the scalding water released by deep-sea hydrothermal vents to the rocky, frozen ground of Antarctica. Adaptation to these varied environments has produced an immense diversity of forms, ranging from a species consisting of a flat bilayer of cells to other species with features such as silk-spinning glands, pivoting spines, and tentacles covered with suction cups. Invertebrate species also show enormous variation in size, from microscopic organisms to organisms that can grow to 18 m long (1.5 times the length of a school bus). In this chapter, we’ll take a tour of the invertebrate world, using the phylogenetic tree in Figure 33.2 as a guide.

  • Muscular and Hydrostatic Action in the Sea-Anemone Metridium Senile (L.)
    [264] MUSCULAR AND HYDROSTATIC ACTION IN THE SEA-ANEMONE METRIDIUM SENILE (L.) BY E. J. BATHAM AND C. F. A. PANTIN Zoological Laboratory, University of Cambridge (Received i March 1950) (With Plate 7 and Nine Text-figures) The majority of sea-anemones present to the eye an almost constant shape which only changes as the result of activities of a very simple kind. This is true, for instance, of Calliactis parasitica, the subject of an earlier study (Pantin, 1935). The unstimu- lated animal rarely departs from the form of a short cylinder surmounted by a disk bearing the tentacles round its edge and the mouth at its centre. In contrast with Calliactis, Metridium senile is notable for the variety of shapes which it assumes (PL 7). It may be fully expanded with a narrow or with a wide column (e, /). The same anemone may next day be found contracted down to a mere button-like object (d). It may indulge in a variety of contortions in which it is laterally bent, or possesses deep transverse constrictions locally or completely embracing the column (g, i). The whole anemone may on occasion temporarily assume a shrivelled and contracted condition (h), in which it might easily be discarded from the aquarium as dying; but which, in fact, is a normal temporary state from which there is com- paratively rapid recovery (i, j). At other times, particularly during locomotion, a part of the body may become greatly distended (c). Prolonged observation of Calliactis shows that even here there is some variation of shape, though less evident than with Metridium.

(Barnes, Invertebrate Zoology, 1987) Cnidocytes & Cnidae The cnidocyte is a sensory-effector cell containing a cnida. Each cnida is a rounded proteinaceous capsule, with an opening on the apical surface that is often covered by a hinged operculum. At the surface, where the cnida opens, there are generally found a number of modified cilia, called cnidocil, which assist in the perception of tactile stimulation and chemical stimulation. In this sac, there is a long hollow thread. Upon mechanical contact and receipt of appropriate chemical stimuli, this thread is explosively everted from the sac. The cnidae may serve to deliver venom, like a hypodermic needle. Many “nematocysts” function like this. The cnidae may

    Biology 18 Spring, 2008 Lab 6 – Phylum Arthropoda Objectives: Understand the taxonomic relationships and major features of arthropods Learn the external and internal anatomy of the crayfish and an insect Use the live and preserved invertebrate specimens to understand the major advantages and limitations of exoskeletons in relation to the hydrostatic skeletons of worms and the endoskeletons of vertebrates, which you will examine next week Textbook Reading: pp. 705-714, 1016, 1078 (Fig. 50.8), 978 (Fig. 45.16), 1028-1029 (Figs. 48.3 & 48.4), 1046 (Fig. 49.1), 1098 (Fig. 51.6) Introduction Arthropods are the largest group of animals, comprising over 1,000,000 terrestrial and aquatic species. By comparison, chordates (including vertebrates) number roughly 40,000 species. Arthropods were not only the first really successful group of animals to invade land, they are the most successful group of terrestrial animals. The invasion of land by arthropods 430 million years ago opened up many new niches and led to an adaptive radiation unparalleled by any group of organisms. Arthropods are found flying thousands of feet above the surface of the earth and thousands of feet below the ocean surface, and just about everywhere in between. Given their numbers and diversity, arthropods have had profound effects on the plants and animals around them, including humans. Many, especially crustaceans, are important food sources. Some insect species (butterflies, moths, bees, and flies) are necessary for the propagation of fruit and vegetable plants, and thus it is not surprising that pollinating insects evolved simultaneously with flowering plants. Others are important for pharmaceutical research: the venom of certain spiders, for example, may be useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
