• In science, a hypothesis that is supported by many separate observations and investigations, usually over a long period of time, becomes a theory.
Theories and lawsTheories and laws
• A theory is an explanation of a natural phenomenon that is supported by a large body of scientific evidence.
•In addition to theories, scientists also recognize certain facts of nature, called laws or principles, that are generally known to be true.
• The nonliving parts of an organism’s environment are the abiotic factors.
• Examples of abiotic factors include air currents, temperature, moisture, light, and soil.
• All the living organisms that inhabit an environment are called biotic factors.
• Examples of biotic factors would be grass, trees, fish, birds, insects and worms.
Ecology
• Ecology – is the study of interactions between organisms and the environment
• Levels of OrganizationBiosphereBiomesEcosystem
CommunityPopulationOrganism
• We study an organisms habitat, niche, and trophic level• Populations – are members of the same species living in
the same place at the same time with the potential to interbreed
Population growth – exponential (J-shape) and logistic (S-Shape)
* Limited by factors like disease and competition that are density-dependent or by density-independent factors like natural disaster.
* Carrying capacity is seen in logistic growth – the maximum number the environment can support
Community Interactions * Competition – intraspecific (same species) or
interspecific (diff sp) * Symbiosis – parasitism, commensalism, and mutualism * Succession – both primary (bare rock) and secondary
(soil)Ecosystem Level – food chains and webs and matter recycling

• A covalent bond holds the two hydrogen atoms together.
How covalent bonds formHow covalent bonds form
• A molecule is a group of atoms held together by covalent bonds. It has no overall charge.
Water molecule
• A solution is a mixture in which one or more substances (solutes) are distributed evenly in another substance (solvent).
Mixtures and SolutionsMixtures and Solutions
• Sugar molecules in a powdered drink mix dissolve easily in water to form a solution.
1. Water is Polar
• A polar molecule is a molecule with an unequal distribution of charge; that is, each molecule has a positive end and a negative end.
• Water is an example of a polar molecule.
• Water can dissolve many ionic compounds, such as salt, and many other polar molecules, such as sugar.
Water is Polar
• Water molecules also attract other water molecules.
• Weak hydrogen bonds are formed between positively charged hydrogen atoms and negatively charged oxygen atoms.

• Water resists changes in temperature. Therefore, water requires more heat to increase its temperature than do most other common liquids.
2. Water resists temperature changes
3. Water expands when it freezes
• Water is one of the few substances that expands when it freezes.
• Ice is less dense than liquid water so it floats as it forms in a body of water.

The Cell CycleThe Cell Cycle
• The cell cycle is the sequence of growth and division of a cell.
• The majority of a cell’s life is spent in the growth period known as interphase.
• Following interphase, a cell enters its period of nuclear division called mitosis.
• Following mitosis, cytokinesis occurs which is when the cytoplasm divides, separating the two daughter cells.

• Cells separate as the cell cycle proceeds into the next interphase
Mendel’s Laws
The law of segregation states that every individual has two alleles of each gene and when gametes are produced, each gamete receives one of these alleles.
The law of independent assortment states that genes for different traits—for example, seed shape and seed color—are inherited independently of each other.

• Mendel concluded that each organism has two factors that control each of its traits.
• We now know that these factors are genes and that they are located on chromosomes
• Genes exist in alternative forms. We call these different gene forms alleles.
• Mendel called the observed trait dominant and the trait that disappeared recessive.

Phenotypes and GenotypesPhenotypes and Genotypes
• The way an organism looks and behaves is called its phenotype.
• The allele combination an organism contains is known as its genotype.
• An organism’s genotype can’t always be known by its phenotype
• An organism is homozygous for a trait if its two alleles for the trait are the same.
• An organism is heterozygous for a trait if its two alleles for the trait differ from each other.

Origin of Life on Earth
Simple organic molecules formed
Scientists hypothesize that two developments must have preceded the appearance of life on Earth.
1. simple organic molecules, or molecules that contain carbon, must have formed.
2. Then these molecules must have become organized into complex organic molecules such as proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids that are essential to life.
A protocell is a large, ordered structure, enclosed by a membrane, that carries out some life activities, such as growth and division.
The first forms of life may have been prokaryotic forms that evolved from a protocell.
Because Earth’s atmosphere lacked oxygen, scientists have proposed that these organisms were most likely anaerobic.
The first autotrophs were probably similar to present-day archaebacteria.
The Endosymbiont Theory
Complex eukaryotic cells probably evolved from prokaryotic cells.
The endosymbiont theory,proposed by American biologist Lynn Margulis in the early 1960s, explains how eukaryotic cells may have arisen.
The endosymbiont theory proposes that eukaryotes evolved through a symbiotic relationship between ancient prokaryotes.
Prokaryote
Aerobic bacteria Mitochondria Cyanobacteria Chloroplasts
Animal Cell
Plant cell
A prokaryote ingested some aerobic bacteria. The aerobes were protected and produced energy for the prokaryote.
Over a long time, the aerobes become mitochondria, no longer able to live on their own.
Some primitive prokaryotes also ingested cyanobacteria, which contain photosynthetic pigments.
The cyanobacteria become chloroplasts, no longer able to live on their own.
The endosymbiont theory
Chloroplasts and mitochondria have their own DNA and ribosomes and they reproduce independently of the cells that contain them
AnatomyAnatomy• Structural features with a common
evolutionary origin are called homologous structures.
• Homologous structures can be similar in arrangement, in function, or in both.

Birdwing
AnatomyAnatomy
• The body parts of organisms that do not have a common evolutionary origin but are similar in function are called analogous structures.
For example, insect and bird wings probably evolved separately when their different ancestors adapted independently to similar ways of life.
• Another type of body feature that suggests an evolutionary relationship is a vestigial structure —a body structure in a present-day organism that no longer serves its original purpose, but was probably useful to an ancestor.
AnatomyAnatomy
• Vestigial structures, such as pelvic bones in the baleen whale, are evidence of evolution because they show structural change over time.
• Darwin observed that the traits of individuals vary in populations. Variations are then inherited.
• Breeding organisms with specific traits in order to produce offspring with identical traits is called artificial selection.
• Natural selection is a mechanism for change in populations. This occurs when organisms with favorable variations survive, reproduce, and pass their variations to the next generation.
• Organisms without these variations are less likely to survive and reproduce.

Blood pressureBlood pressure
• Blood pressure is the force that the blood exerts on the blood vessels.
• Blood pressure rises and falls as the heart contracts and then relaxes.
• Blood pressure rises sharply when the ventricles contract, pushing blood through the arteries.
• The body’s earliest lines of defense against any and all pathogens make up your nonspecific, innate immunity
•Intact skin is a formidable physical barrier to the entrance of microorganisms.
Skin and body secretionsSkin and body secretions
• In addition to the skin, pathogens also encounter your body’s secretions of mucus, oil, sweat, tears, and saliva.
• This acquired immune response enables these white blood cells to inactivate or destroy the pathogen.
Acquired ImmunityNon-specific Immune Response
Acquired ImmunityNon-specific Immune Response
• Defending against a specific pathogen by gradually building up a resistance to it is called acquired immunity.
• Artificial passive immunity involves injecting into the
body antibodies that come from an animal or a human who is already immune to the disease.

• Growth is rapid during the fourth month, but then slows by the beginning of the fifth month.
• During the fifth month, fetal movements can be felt by the mother. In the sixth month of development, the fetus’s eyes open and eyelashes form.
•The fetus’s metabolism cannot yet maintain a constant body temperature, and its lungs have not matured enough to provide a
regular respiratory rate.
