    The document discusses the unifying themes in the study of life. It outlines several key themes: - All living things have systems of related parts and a relationship between structure and function. - Organisms must maintain homeostasis and evolve to survive in diverse environments. - Traits are inherited through DNA and organisms reproduce and are interdependent. - Evolution explains both unity and diversity among living things. The document also discusses scientific inquiry and the relationship between science, technology, and society as additional unifying themes in biology. It provides examples of each theme and how they connect the subdisciplines of biology.

    Unifying Themes in the Study of Life

    MODULE 1: Unifying Themes in the Study of Life

    The unifying theme connects the different sub disciplines that make biology as a science. In
    addition, the living organisms differ from nonliving organisms in various aspects. What are these
    shared properties (of living organisms) that make something “alive”?

    ● All levels of life have systems of related parts.


    - A system is an organized group of interacting parts.
    - A cell is a system of chemicals and processes. It is the basic unit of life.
    - A body system includes organs that interact.
    - An ecosystem includes living and nonliving things that interact.
    ● Structure and function are related in biology.
    - Structure determines function.
    - The structure is the shape of the object.
    - The function is the object’s specific role.
    ● Organisms must maintain homeostasis to survive in diverse environments.
    - Homeostasis is the maintenance of constant internal conditions.
    - All living organisms must live in a stable environment.
    ● Evolution explains the unity and diversity of life.
    - Evolution is the change in living things over time. The genetic makeup of a population
    of a species changes.
    - It accounts for both the diversity and the unity of life.
    ● Traits are being inherited and transferred.
    - The continuity of life depends on the inheritance of biological information in the form
    of DNA molecules.
    - The genetic information is encoded in the nucleotide sequences of the DNA.
    ● Organisms reproduce.
    - It is a necessary part of living; the process of making more of one’s own kind.
    ● Organisms are interdependent with one another.
    - Organisms have evolved to live and interact with other organisms.
    - Ecology deals with the interactions of living organisms with one another and their
    environment.
    ● Organisms acquire and process energy.
    - Living organisms use a source of energy for their metabolic activities.
    - Some living organisms capture the light energy and convert it into chemical energy in
    food.
    - Some living organisms use chemical energy stored in molecules obtained from food.

    In addition to the properties mentioned, the two additional unifying themes in the study of life
    include the scientific inquiry and science, technology and society.

    ● Scientific Inquiry
    - The process of science includes observation-based discovery and the testing of
    explanations through the hypothetic-deductive.
    - Scientific credibility depends on the repeatability of observation and experiments.
    ● Science, Technology and Society
    - Many technologies are goal-oriented applications of science.
    - The relationships of science and technology to society are now more crucial to
    understand than ever before.
