CH 1 intro Flashcards
What are the 8 Properties of Life
Organization
Sensitivity & Response to Stimuli
Reproduction
Adaptation
Growth and Development
Homeostasis
Energy processing
Evolution
the Organization property of life
- organisms are all made of Atoms and Molecule
- organisms are all made of one or more cells
Sensitivity and Response to Stimuli property of lfie and the types
- plants respond to their enivirontmal stimuli by bending towards the sun
- when we touch a hot stove, we pull away our hand right away
- Positive = going towards
- Negative = going away
Reproduction property of lfie and the types
- all organisms reproduce iether Asexually or Sexually
Adaptation property of lfie and the types
Adapting to environment to into its conditions
- winter, and bundling up
- bears eat lots to hybernate
Growth and Development property of lfie and the types
- develop into adults or more capable organisms
- growth coded by genes
Homeostasis property of lfie and the types
- to maintain Equilibrium
- sweating to cool hot temparature
Energy Processing property of lfie and the types
- all organisms hav a metabolism
- cellular respiration
- photosynthesis
Evolution property of lfie and the types
must evolve to survive and have greater reproduction success
What are the 6 Levels of Organization
Atoms and Molecules
Organelles and Cells
Tissues and Organs
Organ Systems
Population and Community
Ecosystem and Biosphere
Give an exampkle of an Organ System
- cardiovascular system, heart
- digestive system
- nervous system brain
What is a population
individuals of a specieis in a specific area
Waht is a community
set of populations in a specific area
can be multiple spseices
- liek horses, with goats, with plants
which is bigger? Ecosystems or Biosphere and why
ecosystems refer to all living things in an area
Biosphere is bigger cuz its all ecosystems on earth altogether
What are the Taxonomy “Hierarchies”
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
