Document Summary

Course information ebook: students can purchase the ebook. It is only a subscription for 180 days. Students can rent the title for . 17 for the term. (a limit of 10) Last lecture: course information, importance of plants, unifying concept: evolutionary innovations. The challenges: harvesting light energy, giving up the sea of moderation: Getting out of the water: staying wet when things get dry, dealing with gravity, divide and conquer, leveraging resources. The importance of plants: photosynthesis sustain the life system on earth (o2, energy, organic compounds, plants are important food source, many medicines come from plants, plants provide a variety of useful products (fuel, shelter, paper) Schwann confirmed that animals are also composed of cells. The cell is the basis of an organism"s structure and reproduction: organisms are made up of one or more cells, the cell is the basic unit of structure for all organisms, new cells arise only from existing cells.
