Basic Science

General Introductory Information

This is the topic as the springboard into the Basic Sciences. What is a cell and why is it important? What do kingdoms and Sciences have in common? In General Introductory Information, you will achieve the basic understanding of Classification Basics of living things. Think of the world of science as a shed containing tools and all the tools are neatly organized into Levels of Organization such as Three Domains/Five Kingdoms/Taxonomy so you are well equipped to use the knowledge obtained in that shed. You will find Common Features of All Forms of Life in here so you can connect the dots between all Living Organisms and Their Environment. Once you begin your exploration, you will find that everything begins and maintains life with cells. Part of this general introductory topic will help you grasp foundational information such as Cells: The Structural and Functional Units of Life. This is where your journey in the Sciences begin to form a solid understanding of the exciting world around you!
