How did such an astounding variety of living things evolve on Earth? What makes these bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals? How do living things differ from nonliving things? Part of these questions form the basics of biology and life sciences. We are also living organisms and we have evolved in response to the same basic set of chemical elements. We all share the same processes that allow us to survive. This program explains biological concepts and offers a unified presentation of life and its variation through evolution.
