  5. What is Biology About? Chapter 1

  6. Biology: The study of Life • How living things interact • Helps us solve problems • Helps us appreciate diversity of living things and their interactions.

  7. Characteristics of living thingsSection 1-2 • Organization • Metabolism • Homeostasis • Reproduction • Two types • Species • Growth • Stimulus response system • Cells

  8. Brainstorm Activity • Fire vs. Golfish. • Proof of life.

  9. Themes in Biology • Cellular structure and function • Reproduction • Metabolism • Homeostasis • Heredity • Evolution • Interdependence • Matter/Energy/Organization

  10. What Theme Is This?

  11. What do these different branches of science study? • Ecology Mycology • Zoology Herpetology • Entomology Microbiology • Cytology Biochemistry • Epidemiology Physiology • Botany Taxonomy • Ichthyology Ornithology

  12. Length=meter Mass=gram Time=seconds Temperature= degree Celsius Volume=liter Kilo- K- 1000 Hecto-H- 100 Deka- Da- 10 M/L/G - 1 Deci- D- .1 Centi- C- .01 Mili- M- .001 Metric Measurements

  13. Convert the following: • .5 grams to dekagrams • 10,000 meters to kilometers • .1 deciliter to milliliter • Answers • .05 dag = .5 g • 10 km = 10,000m • 10 ml = .1dl

  14. Parts of a compound/light microscope • Eyepiece (ocular) • Body Tube • Course and Fine Adjustment • Arm • Base • Nose Piece • Objective • Stage and Stage Clips • Diaphragm • Light Source

  15. How do you prepare a microscope slide? • 1) Carry the microscope to your station, with one hand supporting the arm and the other the base • 2) Clean glass slide and cover slip as well as the lenses with lens paper • 3) Place specimen in the middle of the slide • 4) Lower the cover slip and remove excess liquid • 5) Add stain if called for

  16. Types of Microscopes • Compound Light Microscope • Dissecting Microscope • Electron Microscope (SEM/TEM)

  17. Homework: Due Tomorrow • Convert 32 g to hectograms • Convert .5kg to milligrams • Convert 5cm to millimeters • Convert 5 cm to Decameters • Convert 8.3 Liters to Deciliters • Convert 97 ml to Deciliters • 75.8 mg to cg *8000km to cm • 8000 cm to km *1g to cg
