Genetics post

How did the movie, "The Island", raise any questions or concerns about the ethical use of technology and the possibilities the future presents in terms of genetics?

Cell Cycle

Describe the different stages of the cell cycle and what is taking place in each of the different parts of the cycle during the division phase of the cycle.

Photosynthesis vs. Respiration

Cell Processes

We are going to be looking at two cell processes in detail in the next couple of days: photosynthesis and respiration. Tell me everything that you know about one or both of these processes.

Living vs. Nonliving

Discuss as many characteristics that you can think of that you look for to determine if something is alive.

Biology

When I hear the word Biology, I think of nature, animals, cells, and things like that. Biology means the study of life. Since I want to do something in the medical field, I think of things that have to do with anatomy and cells and different things you might examine under a microscope. When I think of Biology class, I think dissections, microscopes, and analytical thinking. But when it comes down to it, Biology is different for everyone. Some think it to be gross, others think it's interesting. Some people like dissections, but if you're like me, you might not be very fond of them. Honestly, I like Biology. Very much, in fact.

When I hear the term biology

When i hear the term biology I think of the study of life and bones, animals, cells, and plants.
