Theories of Biology pg.1 The major theories of biology are evolution of natural selection‚ biological classification‚ inheritance‚ cells‚ bioenergetics‚ homeostasis‚ and ecosystems. Evolution by natural selection is a process that occurs over successive generations. Inheritance is a theory of how characteristics of one generation are derived from earlier generations. Cells theory is that all organisms are composed of cells and that all cells come from preexisting

Muscle System Human Biology The human body is covered by muscles‚ made up of more than 650 of them. The purpose of the muscular system is for the body to move‚ maintain posture‚ and produce heat. There are three different types of muscles tissues; cardiac‚ smooth‚ and skeletal. There are also two types of muscles are in the body; voluntary and involuntary. The ones which we can move are the voluntary muscles; the ones which move on their own‚ like the heart‚ are involuntary muscles. When muscles

The endocrine system is basically hormones and those hormones are released into the blood of the body controlled by stimulus. The endocrine system does not and can’t work alone.
