  1. CHARACTERISTICS of LIVING THINGS FOLDABLE • Use Information & Image to Help you Construct Foldable • You can Also Google Other Examples! Biology – Hunt 2015

  2. Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction

  3. REPRODUCTION • Reproduction is the biological process by which new individual organisms – "offspring" – are produced from their "parents". Reproduction is a basic feature of all known life; each individual organism exists as the result of reproduction.

  4. Asexual reproduction • 1 PARENT - MITOSIS • OFFSPRING GENETICALLY IDENTICAL • Chromosome # the SAME • NO MEIOSIS or FERTILIZATION • single-celled organisms • archaea, bacteria, & protists. • Many plants & fungi reproduce asexually

  5. Sexual Reproduction • 2 PARENTS - MEIOSIS • GENETIC DIVERSITY/VARIATION • GAMETES - SPERM & EGG • Each Have ½ CHROMOSOME # • FERTILIZATION: • ALMOST ALL ANIMALS & PLANTS

  6. CELLS • Cell - Latincella - meaning "small room” is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all livingorganisms. • Smallest unit of life that can replicate independently, and are often called the "building blocks of life".

  7. UNICELLULAR • SIMPLE • SINGLE-CELLED • Having or consisting of ONE CELL • PROTISTS & BACTERIA

  8. MULTICELLULAR • COMPLEX • Having or Consisting of MORE THAN ONE CELL • PLANTS, ANIMALS, HUMANS

  9. MAIN SOURCE of ENERGY

  10. PRODUCERS • AUTOTROPHS • MAKE their OWN FOOD • PLANTS & Some Algae • PHOTOSYNTHESIS

  11. CONSUMERS • HETEROTROPHS • Organisms that receive ENERGY by consuming other organisms. • ANIMALS, BACTERIA, & FUNGUS

  12. RESPOND to STIMULI • STIMULUS - Something that can evoke a physical response in a cell, tissue, or organism. A stimulus can be internal or external. 

  13. RESPOND to STIMULI • RESPONSE - ALL the processes that occur as a result of the stimulus occurring within or outside the cell or organism.

  14. GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT • GROW - The increases in cell size and number that take place during the life history of an organism. The process is seldom random.

  15. GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT • DEVELOP: Changes in size, shape, and function during the life of an organism by which its genetic code (genotype) is translated into physical characteristics (phenotype)

  16. CONTAINS CHEMICALS/DNA • CARBON (C) • HYDROGEN (H) • NITROGEN (N) • PHOSPHORUS (P) • MAKE UP: Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins, Nucleic Acids (DNA)

  17. LIVING THINGS ADAPT • ADAPTATIONS - Special features that allow a plant/animal to live in a certain place/habitat • Result of natural selection & random genetic variations passed from one generation to the next.
