Overview of Biology: Life on Earth with Physiology 1 Book

Biology: Life on Earth with Physiology, Tenth Edition continues this book?s tradition of engaging non-majors biology students with real-world applications, high-interest case studies, and inquiry-based pedagogy that fosters a lifetime of discovery and scientific literacy. Maintaining the friendly writing style that has made the book a best-seller, the Tenth Edition continues to incorporate true and relevant stories using a chapter-opening Case Study that is revisited throughout the chapter and concluded at the end of the chapter. New to the Tenth Edition are Learning Goals and Check Your Learning questions that help students assess their understanding of the core concepts in biology. To increase the book?s focus on health science, additional Health Watch essays are provided throughout units, and more anatomy & physiology content has been incorporated into the main narrative. Other highlights include new or revised Consider This questions, Have You Ever Wondered? Questions, and Mastering Biology. Features Engages and Motivates students. Case Study features, which open all chapters in the book and draw students in by telling a true yet extraordinary story that relates to the biological theme of the chapter. Case Study Continued, which appears once students are well into the science coverage of a chapter, expands on the chapter opening story and connects it to biological concepts that have been covered as of that point in the narrative. Case Study Revisited, which appears at the end of every chapter, wraps up the narrative by explaining how the story is relevant to the biology covered throughout the chapter. Every chapter uses an inquiry approach, encouraging students to pause, think, and then answer questions as they read. Each main section is presented as a question about the biological concept to be covered, and several features throughout the book use questions to entice students into learning the science: Check Your Learning questions now conclude each main section, and encourage students to assess their understanding of recently read material. Have You Ever Wondered? questions ask a biology-based and often amusing question about an everyday curiosity and then provide a simple and clear scientific answer. Examples of new Have You Ever Wondered features include: Why Your Fingers Fumble and Go Numb in the Cold?? (Chapter 5) How Many Children One Woman Can Bear?? (Chapter 26) How a Porcupine Mates?? (Chapter 41). Consider This questions encourage higher level thinking by asking students to connect the chapter Case Study and related biological concepts to a novel, thought-provoking situation. Figure questions prompt students to think critically about the topic covered in the art and to apply what they?ve learned from the illustration to a new situation. (Answers to the figure questions are provided at the end of the book.) Fill-in-the-Blank questions, located at the end of each chapter, reinforce learning of key concepts and terminology. (Answers are offered at the end of the book). Review Questions, at the close of each chapter, ask students to recall concepts covered in the chapter and define, describe, explain, compare, analyze, or diagram them. Applying the Concepts questions at the end of each chapter are based on probable yet hypothetical scenarios, encouraging students to synthesize knowledge they?ve gained through their reading of the chapter with phenomena, situations, and events they might actually experience. Flexible presentation of key topics. In Greater Depth sections, designed for majors- and mixed-majors students as well as for curious non-majors students, provide deeper coverage of some advanced concepts. Examples of In Greater Depth sections include: The Hardy-Weinberg Principle?? (Chapter 15), which offers a comprehensive discussion on the relationship between allele frequencies and the occurrence of genotypes. A Look at Logistic
