5. Trends, Patterns and Relationships in Biology SG
As a part of life, we are a part of nature and not apart from nature. As such we have everything to learn from life; who we are, how we came to be and what is our role here. We consider the question; What is life? While it sounds simple, the diversity and complexity of life abounds with contradictions and exceptions which mock naïve definitions. One biologist put it this way- in fifty words- "Life is an information processing system capable of replication with variation mediated by metabolism through biochemistry in an aqueous environment and subjected to selection in the stochastic chance and necessity consequential from the big bang resulting in perceptions of beauty, knowledge, truth, love, consciousness, free will, morality, self, and life." When and how did life begin on Earth? Why is water important to life? Why is there duality in biology? Why is there sex? In this lecture we examine some of the commonalities of life on this planet.From:Albert KauschViews:3 0ratingsTime:01:20:00More inEducation
