 What’s New

Biology Defined
Biology is the science that studies life and living things, including the laws that
govern the phenomena of life.

Every aspect of life from the smallest submicroscopic living particle to the largest
and most imposing of plant and animal species is included in the study of biology.
Biological study encompasses all that is known about any plant, animal, microbe
or other living thing of the past or present.

Branches of Biology
The amount of knowledge gained in biology is so large that it has many branches.
The following table lists some of the major ones.

Table 1. Some Branches of Biology

Name Focus
Botany Plants
Zoology animals
Anatomy structure of living things
Taxonomy classification of living things
Cytology cells, their structure and functions

 What’s More

Activity 1.1 Understanding Science Words

There are two ways you can understand science words better. One way is by
defining the word in context. The way the word is used gives you a clue as to its
meaning. Another way is by looking at the parts that make up the word. Each word
part can give you a clue as to the meaning of the whole word.
Learning the Skill: Defining Words in Context
1. First, read to see if the word is defined directly in the sentence.
2. If the word is not defined directly, read several sentences beyond the one in
which the word first appears. These sentences may provide information
about the definition of the word.
3. If possible, define the word based on your own past knowledge. You may
have learned the word in an earlier grade, or you may be familiar with it
because you hear it everyday.
4. Figure out the meaning of the word by how it is used in the sentence and by
the sentences around it.
Find the definitions of the italicized words.
1. Biology is the study of life.
2. A cat is a mammal.
3. All living things can reproduce
4. Green plants carry out photosynthesis.

10
 What I Have Learned

1. The basic characteristics of living things include movement, metabolism,

growth, response, and reproduction.
2. Metabolism is the sum of all chemical activities essential to life. Ingestion,
digestion, respiration, and excretion are metabolic activities that occur in all
organisms.
3. Life span is the maximum length of time a particular organism can be
expected to live.
4. A living thing reacts to a stimulus, which is a change in the environment,
by producing a response.
5. Reproduction is the process by which organisms produce offspring.
6. Asexual reproduction requires only one parent while sexual reproduction
requires two parents.
7. Living things need energy for metabolism. The primary source of energy for
all living things is the sun.
8. Oxygen in the air or dissolved in water is used by all organisms during
respiration.
9. Carbon dioxide is used by plants to make food.
10. Homeostasis is the ability of an organism to keep conditions constant inside
its body when the outside environment changes.
