Biology and the Tree of Life
Learning Objectives: Students should be able to... • Describe the five fundamental characteristics of life. • Describe the three unifying ideas of biology. • Explain how biologists use predictions of the theory of evolution and genetic sequence analysis to construct a tree of life. • Describe key steps in the scientific process.
Lecture Outline I. What Does It Mean to Say That Something Is Alive? A. All living organisms share five fundamental traits: 1. Organisms are made up of membrane-bound cells. 2. Organisms can reproduce. 3. Populations of organisms evolve. 4. Organisms have hereditary information encoded in genes. 5. Organisms acquire and use energy.
II. Life Is Cellular A. Are all organisms made of cells? 1. Cells were first described and identified in cork tissue (Hooke, 1665) and in water and a variety of living tissues (van Leeuwenhoek). (Fig. 1.1) 2. Scientists have examined thousands of plant and animal samples and have concluded that all organisms are composed of cells. 3. A cell is an organized compartment bounded by a thin, flexible plasma membrane and contains concentrated chemicals in an aqueous solution. 4. Most chemical reactions important to life occur inside cells. 5. Cells reproduce via cell division. B. Where do cells come from? 1. Two components of theories: observable pattern and the mechanism or process that creates the pattern 2. Spontaneous generation hypothesis (Virchow) versus all-cells-from-cells (Pasteur) hypothesis a. Pasteur’s experiment supported the all-cells-from-cells hypothesis. (Fig. 1.2)
