BIO DIVERSITY Variation = differences btwn organisms; physical (size, colour, shape) or behavioural.~Interspecific = btwn species. Intraspecific = within same species.~Species = organisms that can interbreed + produce fertile offspring.~Biodiversity = variety of life; ↑ variation = ↑ biodiversity.~Adaptation = variation that improves survival/reproduction.• Structural = physical trait• Behavioural = action/behaviour~Natural Selection: helpful variation → survive/reproduce → trait passed

T1 — Noiseless Digital Communication
Analog signal: Continuous value, varies continuously in time.
Digital signal: Discrete values only (e.g., 0/1).
ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter): Sampling, then Quantization, then Encoding.
Sampling and Quantization
- Sampling: Periodic snapshots of the analog signal.
- Nyquist rate: Sample at least 2x the max frequency to reconstruct without loss.
- Quantization: Rounding each sample to the nearest discrete level.
- Quantization error/noise: Real value vs. assigned level;
