Answer:

Explanation:

Biology is the science of life forms and living processes. The living world

comprises an amazing diversity of living organisms. Early man could

easily perceive the difference between inanimate matter and living

organisms. Early man deified some of the inanimate matter (wind, sea,

fire etc.) and some among the animals and plants. A common feature of

all such forms of inanimate and animate objects was the sense of awe

or fear that they evoked. The description of living organisms including

human beings began much later in human history. Societies which

indulged in anthropocentric view of biology could register limited

progress in biological knowledge. Systematic and monumental

description of life forms brought in, out of necessity, detailed systems

of identification, nomenclature and classification. The biggest spin off

of such studies was the recognition of the sharing of similarities among

living organisms both horizontally and vertically. That all present day

living organisms are related to each other and also to all organisms

that ever lived on this earth, was a revelation which humbled man and

led to cultural movements for conservation of biodiversity. In the

following chapters of this unit, you will get a description, including

classification, of animals and plants from a taxonomist’s perspective.
