Biology: The Nature of Science and Biology: Part One Who is a biologist? Rollover each image to see who these biologists are. Do you know anyone who is a biologist? Prepare a list of five questions to ask this person. You choose the questions. Write a paragraph telling us who this person is, what he or she does in biology, and how that is significant to you and your life. If you think you do not know a biologist, think again…doctors are biologists, nurses are biologists, gardeners are biologists, zoo workers…well you get the point! There are perhaps more biologists in your life than you had thought! If you still do not know a biologist, or cannot get answers to your questions, visit these sites: http://askabiologist.asu.edu/profiles/index.html http://www.aibs.org/careers/#1 What do biologists do? Biology is the study of life. As we will see later in this Unit, there are many characteristics of life, providing a great number of disciplines in biology. Now go on to the next part.
