Summary:
Absorbing facts about the 11.3 million species on Earth might cause your brain to burst! You need to take in huge timelines (the first life on Earth formed 3.
8
billion years ago), huge numbers (your body is made up of trillions of cells), and even huger mysteries (why species go extinct). How can all these big numbers and concepts make more sense? Infographics! The charts, maps, and illustrations in this book tell a visual story to help you to better understand key concepts about life science. Crack open this book to explore mind-boggling questions such as: how do organisms evolve over millions of years? How does DNA determine what you will look like? Why are so many species struggling to survive today? The answers are sure to be life expanding!
