From the last class-Themes in biology
1.Life is organized in a hierarchy from DNA molecules to the biosphere2.Living organisms interact with their environments, exchanging matter and energy3.Cells are the structural and functional units of life4.All life has common features
![Page 3: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Three Domains of Life
Prokaryotes•Single-celled (mostly)•No organelles•No membrane-bound nucleus
Eukaryotes•Single or multi-cellular•Membrane-bound
nucleus•Organelles

Protists (multiple kingdoms)
Two major groups we will look at in this course
AlgaeProtozoans

Plants, Fungi and Animals can be distinguished by how they get their nutrients
![Page 10: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Kingdom PlantaeDiverse, successful, produce their own food
and have cell walls made of cellulose
![Page 11: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Molds, yeasts and mushrooms
Decomposers that recycle nutrients
![Page 12: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Kingdom Animalia
Ingest other organisms for food
900,000+ species of insects may account for ~80% of all animal diversity

1.6 Evolution explains the unity and diversity of life
![Page 15: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Evolution is a theory. So what does this mean?
Theory-an idea that has been rigorously tested, supported and generally accepted to be true.
Theories are supported by hypothesis-driven research and results.

• In 1859, Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural SelectionThe book accomplished two things
1. Presented evidence to support the idea of evolution2. Proposed a mechanism for evolution called natural
selection

![Page 19: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Darwin proposed natural selection by connecting two observations1. Individuals within a population inherit different
characteristics and vary from other individuals2. Populations tend to produce more offspring
than can survive to reproduce themselves

Natural selection is an editing mechanismHeritable variations in populations respond to
environmental factors this favors some individuals over othersOver (evolutionary) time this results in
evolution of new species adapted to particular environments
Evolution is biology’s core theme and explains unity and diversity of life

Common Evolutionary Misconceptions
1. Evolution occurs in a population, not in an individual
Mutations happen in an individual2. Organisms do not choose to adapt
Changes occur at random
![Page 23: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

2
Populations develop diverse characteristics as a result of their response to the environment, mutations and exchange with other populations
![Page 24: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Population with varied inherited traits1
Elimination of individuals with certain traits2
Reproduction of survivors3
![Page 25: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Evolution can not occur if:
1. There are no differences between individuals of a population.
2.Mortality is not selective.3.There are no differences in reproduction
within a population.

THE PROCESS OF SCIENCE
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc.
1.7 Scientists use two main approaches to learn about nature
![Page 30: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Two approaches are used to understand natural causes for natural phenomena
1. Discovery science—uses verifiable observations and measurements to describe science
2. Hypothesis-based science—uses the data from discovery science to explain ideas
This requires proposing and testing of hypotheses
Inquiry is the heart of science
Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc.
![Page 31: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Examples of Discovery Science
The Human Genome Project
Exploration to discover new species
![Page 32: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Discovery Science: A lost cause?
Absolutely not!
![Page 33: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Here, we make a distinction between theory and hypothesis
A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a set of observations
A theory is supported by a large and usually growing body of evidence and is accepted by most scientists

![Page 34: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Lab experiments- The most controlled. Researchers can control most if not all variables.
Field experiment- One variable is changed, but the natural environment determines the outcome.
Natural experiment- Evolution is a natural experiment. We have very little control over the outcome…or do we?

There’s ‘more than one way to skin a cat’
![Page 35: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
1.8 With hypothesis-based science, we pose and test hypotheses
We solve everyday problems by using hypothesesAn example would be the reasoning we use to answer the question,
“Why doesn’t the flashlight work?”Using deductive reasoning we realize that the problem is either the
(1) bulb or (2) batteries.The hypothesis must be testable (i.e. Can we design an
experiment to directly support our hypothesis?)The hypothesis must be falsifiable (i.e. If it truly is false, can we
test it in a way that demonstrates this?)

Important! Each hypothesis involved only one factor, or variable.
Why wouldn’t we test both hypotheses together by changing the batteries AND light bulb at the same time?

1.8 Case Study
Another hypothesis: Mimicry helps protect nonpoisonous king snakes from predators where poisonous coral snakes also live
The hypothesis predicts that predators learn to avoid the warning coloration of coral snakes
Mimicry – a resemblance of one organism to another, usually in an attempt to evade predators.

1.8 With hypothesis-based science, we pose and test hypotheses
• Experimentation supports the prediction of the mimicry hypothesis—nonpoisonous snakes that mimic coloration of coral snakes are attacked less frequently
– The experiment has a control group using brown artificial snakes for comparison
– The experimental group is artificial snakes with the red, black, and yellow ring pattern of king snakes

1.8 With hypothesis-based science, we pose and test hypotheses
Non-poisonous snakes that mimic coloration of coral snakes are attacked less frequently

Scientific testing can include assumptions:What might some assumptions of this
study be?
1. Predators cannot tell a scarlet from a king snake2. Predators would be interested in the brown snake

1.9 Biology, technology, and society are connected in important ways
![Page 56: Organism classification and the scientific method 9/1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e915503460f94b96a9d/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
• Many of today’s global issues relate to biology (science)
Many of these issues resulted from applications of technology
Science and technology are interdependent, but their goals differ
Science wants to understand natural phenomenaTechnology applies science for a specific purpose

1.10 EVOLUTION CONNECTION: Evolution is connected to our everyday lives
• How is evolution connected to our everyday lives?It explains how all living species descended from
ancestral species– Differences between DNA of individuals, species, and
populations reflect evolutionary changeThe environment matters because it is a selective
force that drives evolutionAn understanding of evolution helps us fight disease
and develop conservation efforts

You should now be able to
1. Describe life’s hierarchy of organization2. Describe living organisms’ interactions with their
environments3. Describe the structural and functional aspects of cells4. Explain how the theory of evolution accounts for the unity and
diversity of life 5. Distinguish between discovery science and hypothesis-based
science6. Describe ways in which biology, technology, and society are
connected

Interpreting Data•These two snakes look remarkably similar to each other. The coral snake (right) is very poisonous to vertebrates. Hypotheses:•H1: The coral snake’s bright color pattern serves to warn off potential predators.•H2: The the king snake suffers less predation because it mimics or looks like the coral snake. •H3: The protection that king snakes receive by mimicking coral snake will depend on the presence of coral snakes.

Interpreting Data
Biologists placed artificial snake mimics in two different localities to test the hypothesis that looking like a poisonous snake only works where the poisonous snake is found:1. Outside of the coral snake range—only king snakes present.2. Inside the coral snake range—both coral and king snakes are present.

Interpreting Data
Based on this data which of the following is a logical hypothesis or prediction?– King snakes outside of the range of
coral snakes will more closely resemble coral snakes than populations of king snake living within the range of coral .
– King snakes outside of the range of coral snakes will not resemble coral snakes as closely as populations of king snakes that live within the range coral snakes.
– Neither prediction is valid.
