1. Living Things An organism is a living thing.

3. What are living things? All living things have six characteristics in common: are made of cells. are organized. grow and develop. respond to their environment. reproduce. use energy.

4. Cell is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known living organisms.livingorganisms

5. Nucleus Contains DNA - deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Brain of the cell nucleus

6. Prokaryotic Cells Vs. Eukaryotic Cells

7. What’s the difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes? Prokaryotic cells were here first and for billions of years were the only form of life on Earth. All prokaryotic organisms are unicellular Eukaryotic cells appeared on earth long after prokaryotic cells but they are much more advanced. Eukaryotic organisms unlike prokaryotic can be unicellular or multicellular.

8. Flagella

9. Membrane Bound Structure Eukaryotic cells contain many membrane-bound organelles. An organelle is an organized and specialized structure within a living cell.

10. Cell membrane regulates not only what enters the cell, but also how much of any given substance comes in.

11. Organelles is a specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific function.

12. Genitics

14. Taxonomic classification Taxonomy is the science of systematically naming and organizing organisms into similar groups.

16. Kingdom classification

17. 3.) Why was the Kingdom Monera divided into two separate kingdoms? The kingdom Monera was divided because it contained 2 distinct groups, scientists considered these 2 groups as different → animals and plantae. There were such great differences between Archaebacteria (for example, no peptidoglycan in the cell walls, anaerobic) and Eubacteria (for example, peptidoglycan in cell walls, many require oxygen).
