When you hear the term biology, what comes to mind?

  • When I hear the term biology, I begin to think about cells. I envision an image of a cell, with a cell wall, organelles and a nucleus.


Do you consider yourself a biologist? why or why not?

  • I wouldn't consider myself a biologist, mostly due to what the term biologist means to me. I consider a biologist to be someone who dedicates their lives to finding and examining specimens from nature.
