Why study biology? - Answer-We study biology to help us understand how we and our environment function separately and jointly. If we can better understand how everything functions, it can help improve not only our lives, but preserve the life of our environment. What questions about the natural world have biologists answered? - Answer-Biologists have been able to answer how our genes work, from how our cells translate our genetic code to an actual map of how our genetics are laid out. They...
