New Inquiry Figures focus students on the experimental process, and new Research Method Figures illustrate important techniques in biology. Exploring Figures help students study efficiently and emphasize the big picture. Exceptionally well-integrated, cross-referenced supplements provide a wealth of timesaving tools for instructors, and opportunities for students to practice and master biology. New to This Edition.
A new Chapter 1 introduces students to systems biology and to science as a process of discovery and inquiry. The chapter that introduces metabolism is now in the Cell Unit , just before the chapters on cellular respiration and photosynthesis, providing students with a cohesive view of energy transformations.
The updated Genetics Unit incorporates the theme of systems biology and offers new sections on molecular evolution and genomics. The Evolution Unit features new examples that highlight experimental approaches to the study of evolution. The revised Diversity Unit conveys the dynamic and exciting research across organismal biology resulting from advances in genomics. The physiology of diverse animals is examined in a more ecological context in the unit on Animal Form and Function, which also includes a new section on the vertebrate brain.
A new animal behavior chapter in the Ecology Unit provides a modern approach to the field, with expanded coverage of game theory, mate choice, and animal cognition. The capstone chapter highlights restoration ecology throughout. Eight new interviews with renowned researchers will inspire students and show them the human side of science. Table of Contents 1.
The Chemical Context of Life. Cellular Respiration: Harvesting Chemical Energy. Most recently Dr. Jane B. Reece has worked in biology publishing since , when she joined the editorial staff of Benjamin Cummings.
Her education includes an A. At UC Berkeley and later as a post-doctoral fellow in genetics at Stanford University, her research focused on genetic recombination in bacteria. As an editor at Benjamin Cummings, Dr. Reece played major roles in a number of successful textbooks. Becker and M. We're sorry! We don't recognize your username or password. Please try again.

Biology, 7th Edition. To support the concise narrative, additional material can be found in essay boxes that are labeled in four categories: Key or Classic Experiments highlight influential experimental strategies that show students how we know what we know. Techniques include recent methods from the fields of bioinformatics and genomics.
Advanced Concepts provide further discussions of key theories and principles. Medical Connections highlight how understanding basic mechanisms sheds light on—and may lead to treatment of—medical conditions and human diseases. New to This Edition. The chapters in this section provide a coherent and comprehensive description ofthe structures of DNA, RNA and proteins, and their various interactions, as well as the strategies and techniques used to study them.
New End-of-chapter problems provide students with opportunities to practice responding to the kinds of short-answer or essay questions that they might see on a test or exam. Table of Contents I. Mendelian View of the World 2. Weak and strong chemical bonds.
