Biologists also will know all the basic genetic building blocks, perhaps some 120,000 of them (referred to as "genes", each of which determines a protein, e.g. a biological "part") and all will be available for study and research.
Biologists have learned about the genetics of the visual system in insects by studying mutations that affect eyes in Drosophila. Mutants of the eyeless gene in Drosophila have reduced eye size, with the extent of the reduction depending on the allele.
Biologist today have classified and divided all living things into five groups they call Kingdoms. These kingdoms are based on how living things are the same, and how they are different.
Biologists who specialize in the study of fish behavior, anatomy, physiology, and evolution.

Biologists know little about the genetic mechanisms of speciation. Some think a series of small changes in each subdivision gradually lead to speciation.
For biologists, the most significant forms of radiation are light, heat, and ionizing radiation. Ionizing radiation can penetrate cells and create ions in the cell contents.
The biologist Lynn Margulis, famous for the work on endosymbiosis, contends that symbiosis is a major driving force behind evolution.
The biologists do not come to an agreement on this issue. Many of them say that the levels of organization in Biology begin with the cell; however, the best part of the authors thinks that the biological levels begin with the molecules.
Since that time, biologists have learned a great deal about the cell and its parts; what it is made of, how it functions, how it grows, and how it reproduces. The lingering question that is still being actively investigated is how cells evolved, i.e.
During the early 1900s, the study of genetics began in earnest: the link between Mendel's work and that of cell biologists resulted in the chromosomal theory of inheritance; Garrod proposed the link between genes and "inborn errors of metabolism"; ...
Biologists study intimate details of the human brain, the composition of our genes, and even the functioning of our reproductive system.
The other main advantage, and this is what makes the developmental biologists in the audience get very excited, is that these guys are essentially clear for the first few days of development, and they develop incredibly fast.
Part of Watson and Crick's success was due to their thinking as biologists. They reasoned out the structure from their knowledge of biochemistry, physical chemistry and the role of DNA in the cell.
cloning vector - intentionally designed artificial DNA construct used by molecular biologists to amplify selected pieces of DNA inserted into the construct; examples include plasmid, phage, phagemid, cosmid, fosmid, ...
Molecular biologists have identified regions of the human genome where restriction fragment lengths are highly variable between individuals. These regions are called RFLP markers.
People who are believed to belong to the same genetic stock; some biologists doubt that there are important genetic differences between races of human beings.
The terms and in this glossary are important to practicing biologists and paleontologists in various fields. We have tried to make the exhibits easy to understand without the glossary, but using this glossary may make your visit more enjoyable.

An award-winning biologist presents his moving yet deeply reasoned discussion on the intersection of scientific method and religious faith.
They concluded that DNA is the hereditary material, but not all biologists were convinced.

If you spend your life studying them, you would be a microbiologist. These are the smallest of the small and the simplest of the simple. Some of them, like viruses, may not even be alive as we currently define life.
Zosterophyllophyta An extinct division of early vascular plants characterized by lateral sporangia and commonly spine-like emergences. Believed by evolutionary biologists to be the ancestor of the lycopods.
Southern, a molecular biologist in Edinburgh. Northern and western blots were given contrasting names to reflect the different target substances (RNA and proteins, respectively) that are subjected in these procedures to electrophoresis, ...
