,Chapter 1 Introduction: Themes in the Study of Life

This introductory chapter explores the basic themes and concepts of biology, with emphasis on the
core theme of evolution. It also introduces students to the thinking of scientists. Questions are
therefore general; however, an effort has been made to include some from each skill level. As in the
rest of this test bank, questions that feature art or those for which several questions follow upon some
data or a scenario are placed together at the end of the chapter.
