1. Cells- All living things are composed of one or more cells. Different types of cells have different “jobs” within the organism. Each life form begins from one cell, which then will split.
Organization- Complex organization patterns are found in all living organisms. They arrange themselves on very small levels, grouping like things together. On larger levels, they become visible.
Energy Use- All organisms use energy. The sum of the chemical energy they use is called metabolism. This energy is used to carry out everything they do. Autotrophs use energy from the sun for photosynthesis, to make their own food. Heterotrophs must ingest food for this purpose.
Homeostasis- All organisms have stable internal conditions which must be maintained in order to remain alive. These include temperature, water content, heartbeat, and other such things.
Growth- All organisms grow and change. Cells divide to form new, identical cells. Differentiation happens, as well, when cells mutate into other types of cells, making a more complex organism.
Reproduction- All organisms reproduce in order to continue the species’ life. This is combining genetic information (in sexual reproduction) or splitting into two organisms (in asexual reproduction) in order to create another of the same species.
2. A trait that improves a person’s ability to survive is awareness.
3. bees depend on flowers for honey. flowers depend on bees for pollination
4. Natural selection is one of the basic mechanisms of evolution, along with mutation, migration, and genetic drift.

1. cells, organization, energy use, homeostasis, growth, reproduction.
2. you have to have water
3.bees depend for their food on pollen and nectar from the flowers. flowers depend on bees for pollination. bees and flowers are interdependent.
4.the process in nature by which, according to darwin’s theory of evolution, only the organisms best adapted to their environment tend to survive and transmit their genetic characteristics in increasing numbers to succeeding generations while those less adapted tend to be eliminated.
1. Some characteristics are reproduction and adaptation. Reproduction is necessary to keep a species alilve along with adaptation. Reproduction is the mating of a species, making a “copy of the origional” species. Adaptation allows a species to change over time along with its surroundings in order to be successful
2. A trait that improves a persons ability to survive is the ability to think. If Humans lived of of instinct, we would be no different then the average animal.
3. An example of interdependence is the Carnivore and Omnivore. The Carnivore depends on the Omnivore for food and the Omnivore depends on the Carnivore so that it doesn’t over populate.
4. Natural selection is the process by which forms of life having traits that better enable them to adapt to specific environmental pressures, as predators, changes in climate, or competition for food or mates, will tend to survive and reproduce in greater numbers than others of their kind, thus ensuring the perpetuation of those favorable traits in succeeding generations.
5. The total magnification is 400X and you would use the High Powered Objective for this type of magnification.
- Cells
All living things are composed of one or more cells. Different types of cells have different “jobs” within the organism. Each life form begins from one cell, which then will split. These cells split, and so on. After this has happened several times, differentiation is undergone, when the cells change so that they are not the same thing anymore. Then they are used to begin to put together the final organism, some cells, for example, as the eyes, some as the heart, etc. The only arguable exception to this is viruses. They are not composed of cells, but are said to be “living.”
– Organization
Complex organization patterns are found in all living organisms. They arrange themselves on very small levels, grouping like things together. On larger levels, they become visible. This also has to do with differentiation, as the cells are organized in a manner that makes sense for the organism after they change to what they’ll be in the final organism.
- Energy Use
All organisms use energy. The sum of the chemical energy they use is called metabolism. This energy is used to carry out everything they do. Autotrophs (plants) use energy from the sun for photosynthesis, to make their own ‘food’ (glucose). Heterotrophs (animals and humans) must ingest food for this purpose.
- Homeostasis
All organisms have stable internal conditions which must be maintained in order to remain alive. These include temperature, water content, heartbeat, and other such things. In a way, this has to do with energy use, because a certain level of energy must be kept within the body at all times. For this, obviously, humans must then ingest food on a regular basis. Not all conditions are for the body to maintain itself; though most are.
– Growth
All organisms grow and change. Cells divide to form new, identical cells. Differentiation happens, as well, when cells mutate into other types of cells, making a more complex organism. Organisms growing, changing, and becoming more complex is called development. Single-celled organisms do grow as well, but they will only become slightly larger – this is nearly unmeasurable.
- Reproduction
All organisms reproduce in order to continue the species’ life. This is combining genetic information (in sexual reproduction) or splitting into two organisms (in asexual reproduction) in order to create another of the same species. In sexual reproduction, the new organism will have some characteristics from the mother, and some from father. It may look like either of them, or it may not. In asexual reproduction, the new organism is an exact copy of the first. Sometimes, not every member of a species is able to reproduce. As long as others are then it does not threaten the species.http://www.essortment.com/all/characteristics_rbrc.htm

1. Cells, Organization, Energy Use, Homeostasis, Growth, and Reproduction. Cells make up living organisms. Organization is found in every living thing; they each have unique and complex organization patterns. All organisms use energy, and it is used to carry out everything you do. Homeostasis mainitains the internal conditions of an organisms; it stablizies. Each organism grows and changes by the division of cells. Every organisms reproduce either sexually or asexually; it creates another of the same species.
2. The trait that improves a person’s ability to survive is adaptations. As organisms, we are able to adapt to our surroundings.
3. (Here’s 3) Sea urchins eat kelp, sea otters eat sea urchins, and kelp provides predator protection for sea otters.
4. Natural selection is what causes a species to become more dominant than another. Some organisms don’t get to reproduce to their full extent because of natural predators, so other traits of the species become more dominant.
5. 4,200
1. Organization-living things are organized, and different species will always have a fairly similar makeup. Cells-tissues-organs-organ systems-organism that is the basic organization of all multicellular living things, depending on the complexity of the organism.
Response to stimuli-when there is stimuli, organisms react accordingly.
Homeostasis–the ability to keep internal environments constant
Metabolism–the ability to take things from the external environment and change them into energy.
Growth and Development–growing is getting bigger/taller and development is basically what you go through to reach maturity
Reproduction–the ability to multiply–either asexually (making an identical organism) or sexually (combining the genes of two to create one, not identical to parents)
2. one trait that improves a persons ability to survive is the ability to access food.
3.Basic example–humans depend on trees to keep oxygen in the air and trees get some of their carbon dioxide from humans
4.Natural selection is basically the way nature kills off the weakest of a species. In this way a species strengthens and adapts to its environment, and eventually most of the species is able to survive in that environment because the weakest have died of leaving the stronger ones to reproduce even stronger organisms.

1.Organization is the way all cells, tissues, organs, organ systems make up an organism.
-Response to Stimuli is a physical or chemical change in the internal or external environment.
-Homeostasis is the ability to maintain internal conditions.
- Metabolism is the sum of all the chemical reactions that take in and transform energy and materials from the environmen. It relates to energy.
-Growth and Develobment is that all living things grow and increase in size. Development involves cell development.
Reproduction is that all organisms have the ability to reproduce through heredity, genes, and traits. Asexual reproductions are among one parent and an identical offfspring. Sexual reproduction is when two parents that are unidentical form an offspring.
- All organisms change through time or evolve.

1. Cells
Cells are the basic unit of life. The smallest organisms have one cell. Some organisms have lots of cells. Every cell contains organelles that are responsible for carrying out many cell processes.
-Metabolism
Organisms must have and use energy in order to keep their living system healthy. Material substance is produced, maintained, and destroyed, and by which energy is made available.
-Environmental Adaptation
Organisms must be able to adapt to their changing environments. Like how some animals shed their fur during the summer and fall to keep coll during warm weather, and grow thicker coats in the winter to keep warm.
-Growth and Development
All organisms go through a process of growth and development. Single-celled organisms start as smaller cells that grow. More complicated organisms, such as humans, start as a single cell that divides to create more cells.
-Reproduction
All living organisms have DNA. All organisms must be able to pass down DNA to create more organisms. This is done through reproduction. Single-celled organisms divide in half and grow. multi-cellular organisms reproduce sexually, a process that combinds the genetic material of two organisms to produce another unique organism.
3. Certain species of fungi grow and depend on trees to provide the nutrients needed for life.

All living things are composed of one or more cells. Different types of cells have different “jobs” within the organism. Each life form begins from one cell, which then will split. Complex organization patterns are found in all living organisms. They arrange themselves on very small levels, grouping like things together. On larger levels, they become visible. All organisms use energy. The sum of the chemical energy they use is called metabolism. This energy is used to carry out everything they do. Autotrophs use energy from the sun for photosynthesis, to make their own food. Heterotrophs must ingest food for this purpose.
All organisms have stable internal conditions which must be maintained in order to remain alive. These include temperature, water content, heartbeat, and other such things.
All organisms grow and change. Cells divide to form new, identical cells. Differentiation happens, as well, when cells mutate into other types of cells, making a more complex organism.
All organisms reproduce in order to continue the species’ life. This is combining genetic information (in sexual reproduction) or splitting into two organisms (in asexual reproduction) in order to create another of the same species.

1. Characteristics of Life:
1) Cells – All living things are composed of one or more cells.
2) Organization – Complex organization patterns are found in all living organisms. They arrange themselves on very small levels, grouping like things together.
3) Energy Use – All organisms use energy. The sum of the chemical energy they use is called metabolism.
4) Homeostasis – All organisms have stable internal conditions which must be maintained in order to remain alive.
5) Growth – All organisms grow and change. When organisms grow, change, and become more complex that is called development.
6) Reproduction – All organisms reproduce in order to continue the species’ life. There are two types of reproduction: sexual and asexual. Sexual is when there is a mother and a father and the offspring will have similarities form both. Asexual is when the new organism is an exact copy of the organism that made it.
2. The trait that improves a person’s ability to survive is adaptation.
3. Trees provide shade, a place to live, food for nourishment. Animals spread the seeds of plants and help with pollination.
4. Natural Selection is the process by which organisms better adapt to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring.

1. Theme #1 – Cells
All living things are composed of one or more cells. Different types of cells have different jobs within the organism. Each life form begins from one cell, which then will split. These cells split, and so on. After this has happened several times, differentiation is undergone, when the cells change so that they are not the same thing anymore. Then they are used to begin to put together the final organism, some cells, for example, as the eyes, some as the heart, etc. The only arguable exception to this is viruses. They are not composed of cells, but are said to be living.
Theme#2 – Organization
Complex organization patterns are found in all living organisms. They arrange themselves on very small levels, grouping like things together. On larger levels, they become visible. This also has to do with differentiation, as the cells are organized in a manner that makes sense for the organism after they change to what they’ll be in the final organism.
Theme#3 – Energy Use
All organisms use energy. The sum of the chemical energy they use is called metabolism. This energy is used to carry out everything they do. Autotrophs plants use energy from the sun for photosynthesis, to make their own food glucose. Heterotrophs animals and humans must ingest food for this purpose.
Theme#4 – Homeostasis
All organisms have stable internal conditions which must be maintained in order to remain alive. These include temperature, water content, heartbeat, and other such things. In a way, this has to do with energy use, because a certain level of energy must be kept within the body at all times. For this, obviously, humans must then ingest food on a regular basis. Not all conditions are for the body to maintain itself; though most are.
Theme#5 – Growth
All organisms grow and change. Cells divide to form new, identical cells. Differentiation happens, as well, when cells mutate into other types of cells, making a more complex organism. Organisms growing, changing, and becoming more complex is called development. Single-celled organisms do grow as well, but they will only become slightly larger – this is nearly unmeasurable.
Theme#6 – Reproduction
All organisms reproduce in order to continue the species’ life. This is combining genetic information in sexual reproduction or splitting into two organisms in asexual reproduction in order to create another of the same species. In sexual reproduction, the new organism will have some characteristics from the mother, and some from father. It may look like either of them, or it may not. In asexual reproduction, the new organism is an exact copy of the first. Sometimes, not every member of a species is able to reproduce. As long as others are which we know they can, if they still exist today then it does not threaten the species. Except for mules, but don’t worry about them, they are a bizarre anomoly.
