Biology: the Study of Life
What are the fundamental properties of life?
Cellular Structure (cell = unit of life)
Metabolism = Homeostasis (PSN, Resp, N2fix, ferment, etc.)
Growth = irreversible change in size
Movement…includes internal, limbs, locomotion
Reproduction…failure = extinction
Acclimatization-short term responses = behavior
Adaptation-long term responses = evolution

Population of trees--OK only if ONE species? Is that valid?
Why is this
one tree so
different from
those
individuals in
