The topic is made more exciting and simpler to comprehend via the use of diagrams and graphics that are both streamlined and well labelled. The study of the organization of cells, their structures, their physiological characteristics, their life cycles, metabolic activities, and signalling pathways, as well as how cells interact with their surroundings, is the focus of the biological discipline known as cell biology. There is an overlap with other fields like immunology, biochemistry. and developmental biology. This book makes an effort to comprehend the several subfields that comprise the field of cell biology as well as how theoretical ideas can be put into practice in the real world. Genetics is the scientific study of genes or heredity which is the process through which certain attributes or traits are handed down from parents to children as a consequence of changes in the DNA sequence. The study of the content, structure, and interactions of cellular molecules, such as nucleic acids and proteins. that carry out the biological processes needed for the cell's functioning and maintenance is the focus of the branch of biology known as molecular biology

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For sophomore- to junior-level courses in Evolution, with an Introductory Biology prerequisite.This text introduces biology majors to the basic concepts of the fields comprising Darwinian biology: population genetics, population ecology, community ecology, macroevolution, physiological ecology, systematics, and functional morphology. The general theme is the interconnectedness of organism, environment, and evolution. Just as biochemistry and molecular biology provide the foundation for our understanding of the cell, evolutionary biology and ecology are used to construct a foundation for understanding the organism. Using evocative language and an eye-catching magazine format, the authors aim to prepare undergraduates for more advanced specialist courses in Darwinian biology as they pursue their degrees.

Download or read book Cell Biology Genetics Molecular Biology Evolution and Ecology Volume 2 written by Dr. Sonali Santosh Kadam and published by AG Publishing House. This book was released on with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First stated as a method for understanding the basis of biological events, molecular biology seeks to understand how organisms work by delving into the structure and function of individual molecules and how these molecules interact with one another and with the larger environment. According to this book understanding how the chemicals that make up cells impact the behavior of living things is a central goal of molecular biology and genetics. To understand how these molecules work in the dynamic environment of a live cell, biologists use a wide range of molecular and genetic techniques.These methods are being used by groups in our department to investigate a broad range of issues, including as the basic mechanisms governing transcription and translation as well as pathways involved in signal transduction. Among them are the role of the senses of sight and smell and how genetic diversity in wild populations influences evolution. Although the systems being studied include a variety of model species, including bacteria, the yeast, slime molds, worms, the fruit flies, zebrafish, and mice, the findings from these research have some direct or indirect relevance to human health. This book covers the key topics in cell biology, genetics, molecular biology, evolution, and ecology, such as the structure and function of nucleic acids, a general review of cells, and DNA replication with knowledge of genetics and their evolutionary histories.

Download or read book Concepts of Biology written by Samantha Fowler and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-07 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concepts of Biology is designed for the single-semester introduction to biology course for non-science majors, which for many students is their only college-level science course. As such, this course represents an important opportunity for students to develop the necessary knowledge, tools, and skills to make informed decisions as they continue with their lives. Rather than being mired down with facts and vocabulary, the typical non-science major student needs information presented in a way that is easy to read and understand. Even more importantly, the content should be meaningful. Students do much better when they understand why biology is relevant to their everyday lives. For these reasons, Concepts of Biology is grounded on an evolutionary basis and includes exciting features that highlight careers in the biological sciences and everyday applications of the concepts at hand.We also strive to show the interconnectedness of topics within this extremely broad discipline. In order to meet the needs of today's instructors and students, we maintain the overall organization and coverage found in most syllabi for this course. A strength of Concepts of Biology is that instructors can customize the book, adapting it to the approach that works best in their classroom. Concepts of Biology also includes an innovative art program that incorporates critical thinking and clicker questions to help students understand--and apply--key concepts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolution since Coding: Cradles, Halos, Barrels, and Wings describes genesis of metabolism, transcription, translation, cell structure, eukaryotic complexity, LUCA (the last universal common (cellular) ancestor), the great divergence of archaea and bacteria, LECA (the last eukaryotic common ancestor), extinction, and cancer in very simple ways. The work (almost) "synthesizes life from scratch" (since coding) and describes the tools for readers to check the author’s work. As a result, readers understand living systems and their evolution in a conceptual way and are empowered to utilize powerful but accessible tools in computer-based biology. The work serves as foundational reading for a variety of researchers, academics, and students in life sciences, for example in evolution/evolutionary biology, biochemistry, genetics/molecular genetics, molecular biology, cell biology, and microbiology, as well as disciplines beyond biological science. Its approachable style makes the book accessible for introductory students and educated laypersons. Evolution since Coding is suitable to supplement college courses that mix computers, evolution, and biology from freshman to senior level. Provides a simple, hands-on, conceptual route to understanding ancient evolution and the diversification of life on earth Offers a conceptual understanding of biology, evolution, protein structure, RNA synthesis systems, protein synthesis systems, signaling systems, genesis of the three domains, and cell structures Approaches ancient evolution via code-breaking protein and RNA sequences and motifs

Download or read book Molecular Ecology and Evolution Approaches and Applications written by B. Schierwater and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 615 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past 25 years have witnessed a revolution in the way ecologists and evolutionary biologists approach their disciplines. Modern molecular techniques are now reshaping the spectrum of questions that can be addressed while studying the mechanisms and consequences of the ecology and evolution of living organisms. "Molecular Ecology and Evolution: Approaches and Applications" describes, from a molecular perspective, several methodological and technical approaches used in the fields of ecology, evolution, population biology, molecular systematics, conservation genetics, and development. Modern techniques are introduced, and older, more classic ones refined. The advantages, limitations, and potentials of each are discussed in detail, and thereby illustrate the widening range of cross-field research and applications which this modern technology is stimulating. This book will serve as an important textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate students, and as a key reference work for researchers
