Biology Lectures with Quizzes Part 1

歌词

Biology is the subject that studies life in all of its forms. The most basic unit and the foundation of all life is the cell.They're incredibly complicated molecular factories and cellular biology studies the structure and functions of the many different things inside a cell. Cells were evolving for over 3 billion years until multicellular animals appeared. That's over two thirds of the age of the Earth!So no wonder they are so complicated. Cells are the smallest things that we think can be counted as life.Unfortunately there isn't a good definition of life that everyone agrees on. For example, viruses, evolve and replicate but they need other life to do so.It looks at DNA, RNA, amino acids and the creation of proteins, how they interact with each other and what affects these interactions. 1:00 This is related to structural biology which looks at the shape of biological molecules 1:05 like amino acids, nucleic acids, and enzymes; why they have those structures and how differences in their structure affects how they work.Biochemistry goes one step even deeper and looks at how these biological molecules interact with each other on a chemical level. 1:20 Life is essentially a load of complex chemical reactions and biochemistry studies the underlying chemical signals and reactions of life. 1:29 The molecules of life are too small to see with optical microscopes and so many techniques in physics like x-ray crystallography, or cryo-electronAs well as tools for studying life, biophysics and quantum biology also look at the physics that underpins biological processes, seeking to explain how things work on a physical level. 1:52 Your DNA holds the blueprint of who you are and genetics is the study of how this information is expressed to create all of the different forms of life through genes, and how this information is passed on from one generation to the next.Biology Quiz Part I.
