Summary Introduction

Introduction: A conference was held by “The American Association for the Advancement of Science”. This conference was known as “Vision and change”. The aim of this conference was to enhance education in the field of biology. This resulted in the reorganization of essential biological theories.

Answer to Problem 1TY

Correct answer: Taxonomy is not a core concept of biology, as advocated by “Vision and Change”. Hence, the correct answer is option d.

Explanation of Solution

Reason for correct answer:

The conference named “Vision and Change” includes five major biological theories. These theories are regarded as the core concepts in the field of biology. These theories include:

  • Evolution
  • Structure and functions of living organisms.
  • Information flow, storage, and exchange.
  • Pathways that are required for energy and matter transfer
  • Living systems

Taxonomy is not a core concept of biology according to “Vision and Change”.

Option d. is given as “Taxonomy”.

Taxonomy is not included in the five biological theories given by “Vision and Change”. Hence, the correct answer is option d.

Reasons for incorrect answer:

Option a. is given as, “Evolution”.

Evolution is the process of the development of an organism from its forefather. According to “Vision and Change”, it is an important concept of biology. Hence, option a. is incorrect.

Option b. is given as, “Information flow, exchange, and storage”.

Information flow, exchange, and storage are among the five concepts of biology. Hence, option b. is incorrect.

Option c. is given as, “Structure and function”.

Structure and function are important in living organisms. Every organism has a unique structure and function that makes it different from the rest. “Vision and Change” has included structure and function among the five core concepts. Hence, option c. is incorrect.

Option e. is given as, “Pathways and transformation of energy and matter”.

Pathways and transformation of energy and matter have been included in the concepts given by “Vision and Change”. Hence, option e. is incorrect.

Hence, the options a., b., c., and e. are incorrect.

Conclusion

Therefore, taxonomy has not been included as a core concept in the field of biology by “Vision and Change”. This conference recognized only five processes as “the core concepts of biology”.

Preoperative Diagnosis: Torn medial meniscus, left knee Postoperative Diagnosis: Combination horizontal cleavage tear/flap tear, posterior horn, medial meniscus, left knee. Operation: Arthroscopic subtotal medial meniscectomy, left knee Anesthetic: General endotracheal Description of Procedure: The patient was placed on the operating table in the supine position and general endotracheal anesthesia was administered. After an adequate level of anesthesia was achieved, the patient's left lower extremity was prepped with Betadine scrubbing solution, then draped in a sterile manner. Several sites were then infiltrated with 1% Xylocaine solution with Epinephrine to help control bleeding from stab wounds to be made at these sites. These stab wounds were made anterolaterally at the level of the superior pole of the patella for insertion of an irrigation catheter into the suprapatellar pouch area, anterolaterally at the level of the joint line for insertion of the scope and anteromedially at…
