5. Common Characteristics 5. Obtain & Use Materials & Energy 6. Respond To Their Environment 7. Maintain A Stable Internal Environment 8. AS A GROUP, Living Things Evolve, That Is They Change Over Time

6. Characteristics of Organisms

7. All Organisms are made of Cells

8. Facts About Cells Cells are the smallest living unit of an organism Cells are the smallest living unit of an organism All cells contain living material called cytoplasm All cells contain living material called cytoplasm All cells are surrounded by a cell membrane that controls what enters & leaves the cell All cells are surrounded by a cell membrane that controls what enters & leaves the cell

9. More Cell Facts Cells are complex & highly organized Cells are complex & highly organized Cells have parts called organelles that do different jobs Cells have parts called organelles that do different jobs e.g. Chloroplasts in plants make sugars e.g. Chloroplasts in plants make sugars

10. More Cell Facts The simplest cells are called Prokaryotes The simplest cells are called Prokaryotes These cells DO NOT have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles These cells DO NOT have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles Bacteria are examples Bacteria are examples

12. Organisms are Grouped by their Number of Cells Unicellular Organisms Unicellular Organisms – Living Organism Made Up Of One Cell Multicellular Organisms Multicellular Organisms – Living Organism Made Up Of Many, Specialized Cells

13. Organisms Reproduce to Pass on their Genetic Traits

14. Two Types of Reproduction Sexual Reproduction Sexual Reproduction – Involves 2 parents – Egg fertilized by sperm to make a ZYGOTE – Offspring DIFFERENT from parents

15. Two Types of Reproduction Asexual Reproduction Asexual Reproduction – Involves a single organism or cell – Cell divides – Offspring IDENTICAL to parent

16. Cells Have a Genetic Code

17. Genetic Code DNA (deoxyribose nucleic acid) carries the genetic code for all organisms DNA (deoxyribose nucleic acid) carries the genetic code for all organisms – All organisms contain DNA – DNA codes for the proteins that make up cells & do all the work

18. Organisms Grow & Develop

19. Growth & Development Organisms grow by producing MORE CELLS & by cell ENLARGEMENT Organisms grow by producing MORE CELLS & by cell ENLARGEMENT Organisms develop as they mature into an adult organism Organisms develop as they mature into an adult organism

20. Cells Require Food & Energy

21. Food Requirements Autotrophs can make their own food Autotrophs can make their own food Photoautotrophs use sunlight to make food (photosynthesis) Photoautotrophs use sunlight to make food (photosynthesis) Chemoautotrophs use chemicals such as iron & sulfur as their energy Chemoautotrophs use chemicals such as iron & sulfur as their energy

22. Food Requirements Heterotrophs can NOT make their own food Heterotrophs can NOT make their own food They must consume other organisms They must consume other organisms – Herbivores eat plants – Carnivores eat meat – Omnivores eat plants & animals

23. Metabolism Sum of all the chemical reactions in an organism Sum of all the chemical reactions in an organism All require energy All require energy Sunlight is the ultimate energy for life on Earth Sunlight is the ultimate energy for life on Earth

24. Metabolism Cellular Respiration Cellular Respiration – Cells releasing the chemical energy stored in foods 6O 2 + C 6 H 12 O 6 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O

25. Organisms Respond to Stimuli Organisms Respond to stimuli (Temperature, Water, Food Supplies, etc.) In Order To Survive & Reproduce Organisms Respond to stimuli (Temperature, Water, Food Supplies, etc.) In Order To Survive & Reproduce

26. Homeostasis Keeping The Internal Environment (Homeostasis) of The Cell or Organism Within the ranges required for LIFE Keeping The Internal Environment (Homeostasis) of The Cell or Organism Within the ranges required for LIFE Stable internal conditions of pH, temperature, water balance, etc. Stable internal conditions of pH, temperature, water balance, etc.

27. Living Things Evolve Groups Of Organisms (Not Individuals) Change Over Time In Order To Survive Within Changing Environments. Groups Of Organisms (Not Individuals) Change Over Time In Order To Survive Within Changing Environments. Fossil records show changes in groups of organisms Fossil records show changes in groups of organisms

28. Life is Organized on Several Levels

29. Levels of organization Atoms Atoms Molecules Molecules Organelles Organelles Cells – life starts here Cells – life starts here Tissues Tissues Organs Organs System System Organism Organism
