Happy Tuesday, BIO-NINJAS Have These out for me to check: Martian worksheet. Gum Lab Summary and Questions Late today: Biology Photo Assignment (turn in if you have it) Bellwork: Living Non-Living Both Copy the following Y-Chart into your Bellwork Sheet. Fill in characteristics that are unique to Living things, Non-Living things or Both. Some examples: Rocks, Plants, Toys, Snakes, Water, Fire, etc.

Gum Lab Go over… Cut, fold and glue…

Martian Worksheet

Sticky graph Discuss with your partner reasons from your homework why the cars are not alive. Write any that you both have in common and bring them up to the board. Keep matching answers together in a line...

How do the levels of organization show an increase in complexity? Journals… Essential Question: Table of Contents: Page 6 “Levels of Organization and Characteristics of Life” Page 6 right side, prepare for cornell notes. Essential Question How do the levels of organization show an increase in complexity?

Introduction to Biology Bios = "life" Biology Logos = "study of" The Study of Life Introduction to Biology  Bios = "life" Biology Logos = "study of" *if it’s BOLD and RED, write it down

The Characteristics of Life Made of one or more cells – unicellular or multicellular Cells – the smallest unit of life.

2. Displays Organization - cells and other systems working together

3. Growth and Development. Growth – increase in size, adding cells/ 3. Growth and Development Growth – increase in size, adding cells/ structures Development – increasing in complexity

4. Reproduction – produce new individuals

5. Responds to stimuli/environment Stimulus – response to, either internal/external environment  Response –reaction to a stimulus (critical to survival)

6. Requires energy - energy from food or they use light energy to make their food  

7. Maintains Homeostasis – regulation of an organism’s internal environment to maintain life.

CUPS

1. Atom-the smallest unit of matter

2. Molecule-composed of two or more different atoms

3. Organelle-molecules bond together to form the building blocks of cells

New topic   Levels of Biological Organization (draw arrow to number 2 from COL) 4. Cells Smallest unit of Life is a Cell Unicellular –composed of one cell, Multicellular –composed of many cells performing different jobs (division of labor),

Multicellular Organization 5. Tissues- similar cells working together to perform a specific function

Multicellular Organization 6. Organs-different tissues linked together to perform a specific function

Multicellular Organization 7. Organ Systems-interconnected system composed of different organs

Multicellular Organization 8. Organism-results from organ systems working together.

Levels of organization in multicellular organism Cell Tissue Organ Organ System Organism

Levels of Biological Organization 8. Populations – Organisms of the same species that Live in the same place and can interact to produce young

Levels of Biological Organization 9. Communities – Groups of different populations interacting with each other in a given area.

Levels of Biological Organization 10. Ecosystem – Includes Biotic community and abiotic factors Biotic - Living organisms Abiotic – Nonliving organisms and factors (climate etc).

Levels of Biological Organization 11. Biome – Various regions of the planet distinguished by similar climate, fauna (animals) and flora (plants)

Levels of Biological Organization 12. Biosphere – made up of all the biomes. The part of the earth and its atmosphere.
