- The properties and processes of life would be correctly described by which of the following statements? Inherited information controls the pattern of growth but not the development of an organism. Organisms process energy during the course of their lives. Life is disordered. An organism's adaptations evolve over 2 or 3 generations. Organisms are not able to regulate their internal environment.arrow_forwardOrganisms Evolve true or false?arrow_forwardExplain how biology can be studied from a microscopic approach to a global approach.

- One of the simplest definitions of a life-form is anything with the capacity to reproduce and regulate itself. Before life began, the complex organic, or hydrocarbon-bearing, molecules that makeup RNA and DNA, the building blocks of life, must have formed. No one knows exactly how life is formed from these molecules, but many ideas have been put forward. As you enter this area, go toward the large video screen on the right and explore the “Life at the hydrothermal Vents” label deck. Some scientists theorize that life begins at deep-sea vents. Find three lines of evidence to support this claim.arrow_forwardScientists Stanley Miller and Harold Urey set up an experiment modeling the environmental conditions thought to exist during the early stages of Earth's formation. The setup of Miller and Urey's experiment is shown below. Which conclusion about the origin of life could be drawn from the potential results of this experiment? Life assembled from chemical building blocks. Life began when water vapor became electrified. Life evolved from the DNA of simple unicellular organisms. Life began when salt water caused a mutation in an ancient virus.arrow_forwardWhy do organisms or species need to evolve?arrow_forward
