About this ebook
The ISE Principles of Biology 2026 EverGreen Release (5th Edition) by Robert Brooker, Eric Widmaier, Linda Graham, and Peter Stiling is published by McGraw Hill. The textbook is structured into major conceptual units that emphasize fundamental biological principles, scientific inquiry, and critical-thinking skills over rote memorization. [1, 2, 3]
The primary core units and specific topics covered in this edition include:
🔬 Introduction & Chemistry Unit
- An Introduction to Biology: Core principles of life, scientific method, and the concept of Vision and Change in biology.
- Chemical Basis of Life I: Atoms, chemical bonds, molecules, and the properties of water.
- Chemical Basis of Life II: Structure and function of organic macromolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids). [1, 2]
🧫 Cell Unit
- Origin of Cells: Evolutionary origin of cells, cell structure, and cellular features.
- Membranes: Membrane structure, synthesis, fluidity, and selective transport mechanisms.
- Cellular Energy: Introduction to energy, enzymes, and metabolic pathways.
- Photosynthesis: How cells capture and utilize light energy.
- Cell Communication: Cellular signaling pathways and how cells interact with their environment. [1, 2]
🧬 Genetics Unit
- Information of Life: Structural properties of DNA/RNA, chromosome packaging, and DNA replication.
- Gene Expression I: The molecular mechanisms of transcription and translation.
- Gene Expression II & III: Functions of non-coding RNAs and the mechanics of gene regulation.
- Genetic Alterations: Genetic mutations, molecular mechanisms of DNA repair, and the biology of cancer.
- Cell Division: The eukaryotic cell cycle, mitosis, and meiosis.
- Inheritance Patterns: Mendelian genetics, inheritance laws, epigenetics, gene linkage, and extranuclear inheritance.
- Simple Genetic Systems: Viral and bacterial genetics.
- Genetic Technologies: Recombinant DNA, genomics, and how modern biologists analyze genes. [1, 2]
🌳 Evolution & Diversity Unit
- Population Changes: Mechanisms of evolution and how populations evolve across generations.
- Origin of Species: Macroevolution, speciation events, and the history of life on Earth.
- Taxonomy & Diversity: Systematics, classification, and study of life domains including Archaea, Bacteria, Protists, and Fungi.
- Microbiomes: Structural analysis of microbial systems existing on and around organisms.
- Plant Evolution: The transition of plants to land environments. [1, 2]
