Mapa conceptual "Biólogos"

Los biólogos estudian la vida, intentan comprender los procesos que ocurren en entorno de vida. Aplican su investigación y crean nuevos biotecnología, también intentan responder preguntas de cosas que observan en ella, medio ambiente, por ejemplo: ¿por qué no mueren las células cancerosas ?, ¿cómo las luciérnagas crean luz? ¿Y qué genes controlan la sordera ?.

Los científicos son particularmente botánico, zoólogo y fisiólogo, hacen investigaciones en laboratorios con plantas, animales y otros materiales, también pueden trabajar fuera del laboratorio, por ejemplo, tropical selva tropical (botánico), área forestal recuperada después de un incendio (ecologista) y buques de investigación (biólogos marinos).

La naturaleza del trabajo de un biólogo es el trabajo en laboratorios, universidad e industria privada. Pueden especializarse en un área, por ejemplo, zoología y microbiología.  Al mismo tiempo desarrollar soluciones tales como problemas de salud humana y mejorar el entorno natural.

Las habilidades que debe tener un biólogo son curiosas, inquisitivas y paciente, también en el momento del trabajo puede estar de forma independiente y en equipos.

The evaluation is the first part of two, which has 20 multiple choice question that covers a wide range of topics in population ecology, including:
  • Community diversity and abundance: Questions 1 and 2 assess students' understanding of these concepts.
  • Population growth and density: Questions 3 and 5 assess students' understanding of these concepts.
  • Population dispersion: Questions 6 and 7 assess students' understanding of this concept.
  • K-strategist vs. r-strategist species: Questions 8 and 9 assess students' understanding of these concepts.
  • Age distribution of populations: Question 10 assesses students' understanding of this concept.
  • Interspecific interactions: Questions 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19 assess students' understanding of these concepts.
Overall, the evaluation is a comprehensive assessment of students' understanding of the key concepts in population ecology.

The following lesson has as an objective to review the three main theories of evolution: Fixism, Lamarckism and Darwinism (Natural Selection). The presentation starts with some definitions of concepts that must have been acquired for now and may be helpful. It continues with a question in order to rise previous knowledge about evolution and how it happened. Then, the three theories are studied with examples and definitions. The one that has more content is Darwinism because the types of selections (stabilising, directional, disruptive and artificial) are shown with graphs. As closure, a small question is made about antibiotic resistance and a fun evaluated activity is proposed in order to evaluate the theories of evolution.

The following lesson contains 43 slides full of activities, questions, examples and definitions of the main five evidences of evolution: Fossils, Embryology, Compared Anatomy, Biogeography and Molecular Biology. In here you will find examples of fossils, the types of fossils, some activities that work skills like data analysis, interpretations of models, comparison between two or more situations and very interesting facts that will make your students be a little bit more in love with science.

The learning objective is to explain, based on evidence, that the classification of the diversity of organisms is built over time based on taxonomic criteria that allow them to be organised into groups and subgroups, identifying their kinship relationships with common ancestors.
This lesson contains one activity in the beginning to rise previous knowledge about how organisms are classified. Afterwards, concepts like Taxonomy, Biodiversity and Classification are defined in order to understand how they are classified and the objective if this. The structure of Scientific Names is presented with some examples. Then, the classification is explained (Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, etc.) with the human example. Finally, a closure activity is presented in order to evaluate which taxonomies are more related in order to compare the criteria.

The goal of this worksheet is to hone critical skills such as reading comprehension and the analysis of information related to the behaviour and physical characteristics of human ancestors. Students will apply these skills to connect this knowledge with visual representations of skulls and various fossils. To achieve this, students will:

1. Begin by reading a text containing information about human fossils.
2. Observe images of human fossils and match each image with the appropriate description, providing justifications for their choices.
3. Proceed to construct a timeline that illustrates the evolution of humanity, with a specific focus on understanding the reasons for this evolution and its significance.
4. Answer open questions in order to understand the evolution of the human being, specifically why it happened and the importance of it.

In essence, this worksheet serves as a comprehensive exercise to help students explore the evolution of human beings by integrating textual and visual information, critically analysing it, and drawing connections to broader concepts.
