The field of biology focuses on living things from the smallest microscopic protozoa to the largest mammal In this book you will read and explore the life of plants insects spiders and other arachnids life in water reptiles birds and mammals highlighting God's amazing creation You will learn about the following and so much more:
How does biological classification give each different type of plant or animal a unique name
In what ways are seeds spread around the world
What food does the body use for long-term storage of energy
How did biologists learn how the stomach digested food
What plant gave George de Mestral the idea for Velcro
For most of history biologists used the visible appearance of plants or animals to classify them They grouped plants or animals with similar-looking features into families Starting in the 1990s biologists have extracted DNA and RNA from cells as a guide to how plants or animals should be grouped Like visual structures these reveal the underlying design of creation
The newest book in our Exploring series Exploring the World of Biology is a fascinating look at life - from the smallest proteins and spores to the complex life systems of humans and animals
