HOMEWORK 1. Levels of Organization

List the levels of organization from atoms to biosphere. Obtain a title of a research article for each or a job description for each.

2. Characteristics of LifeMost biologist do not consider viruses to be alive. Which characteristics of life to they have and which do they lack? Give a brief (1-2 sentences) reason why or why not for each characteristic.
