Life may be found everywhere on the planet, from thermal vents at the bottom of the ocean to the coldest reaches of Antarctica. These characteristics include levels of organi-zation, the ability to acquire materials and energy, the ability to maintain an internal environment, the ability to respond to stimuli, the ability to reproduce and develop, and the ability to adapt and evolve to changing conditions.

By studying these characteristics, we gain insight into the complex nature of life, which helps us distinguish living organisms from nonliving things.

In the next sections, we will explore these character istics in more detail. The complex organization of life begins with atoms, the basic units of matter.

Atoms combine to form small molecules, which join to form larger molecules within a cell, the smallest, most basic unit of life.

Although a cell is alive, it is made from nonliving molecules Fig. The majority of the organisms on the planet are single-celled. Plants, fungi, and animals are multicellular and are composed of many types of cells. In multicellular organisms, similar cells combine to form tissues. Tissues make up organs, as when various tissues combine to form a heart or a leaf.

Organs work together in organ systems; for example, the heart and blood vessels form the cardiovascular system. Various organ systems work together within complex organisms. The organization of life extends beyond the individual organism. All the members of a species organisms with a similar structure that are capable of interbreeding within a particular area belong to a population.

This latest edition of the text maintains the clear, accessible, and engaging writing style of past editions with the solid framework of pedagogy that highlights an emphasis on evolution and scientific inquiry that have made this a leading textbook for students majoring in biology. This emphasis on the organizing power of evolution is combined with an integration of the importance of cellular, molecular biology and genomics to offer our readers a text that is student friendly and current.

Download Combo Essentials Of The Living World W Connect Access Card books , A student favorite, this engaging text, now presented with a new single column format, is rich with student-oriented applications and illustrations that drive the learning. Written from scratch to be an appealing and accessible learning tool with an emphasis on "how things work and why things happen the way they do", this Essentials text features a straightforward, clear writing style with ample use of analogies to help students relate new material to familiar things.

NEW digital assets for the 3rd edition include high interest video clips and animations of key biological concepts. Download Understanding Biology books , Overview A concise and engaging biology text for biology majors, Understanding Biology partnered with Connect emphasizes fundamentals concepts to help students better understand biology and focus on developing scientific skills.

Condensed chapters are centered on a learning path that serves to connect concepts within a chapter. The learning path begins with learning outcomes, which help students understand the core skills and concepts they should develop. Inquiry and Analysis cases help students build scientific skills, while scaffold end of chapter assessment ensures they not only grasp core concepts, but can also critically analyze and apply what they've learned.

While this version features a new Dummies cover and design, the content is the same as the prior release and should not be considered a new or updated product. Just the core concepts you need to score high in your biology course Biology Essentials For Dummies focuses on just the core concepts you need to succeed in an introductory biology course. From identifying the structures and functions of plants and animals to grasping the crucial discoveries in evolutionary, reproductive, and ecological biology, this easy-to-follow guide lets you skip the suffering and score high at exam time.
