I can – list and describe the 7 characteristics of life
Think – Pair - ShareThink – Pair - SharePart 1: Think of all the characteristics you have in common with a bird (ex: robin)
Turn to your shoulder partner and share your ideas..
The Characteristics of LifeThe Characteristics of LifeEvery “living” thing is called an
organismLife is characterized by 7 main
propertiesMini – Group Activity
◦Discuss and list on an index card as many characteristics of life as you can think of using the picture
How many non living things share these characteristics?
1. Cell Structure & 1. Cell Structure & Function Function Cells are highly organizedCells have thin coverings called
membranesCell Theory
◦ All living things are made of cells◦ Cells are the smallest unit capable of life
functions◦ Cell come only from other cells
Complete the question in your notes on the organization of living things, once your done compare with your group!Did you know?
-Your body
contains more
than 100 trillion
cells?!
Give a fact, Give a name!Give a fact, Give a name!If you can name
this organism raise your hand
If you can name this organism AND give one fact about it, raise your hand and hold up only your pointer finger
2.Reproduction 2.Reproduction Reproduction-
the process by which living organisms make more of their own kind
All living things can reproduce
Reproduction is not needed for the survival of an individual, but necessary for the survival of a species
Can you name this?Can you name this?1) If you can name
this organism raise your hand
2) Pair up with someone that does not have their hand raised
3) With your partner, decide which type of reproduction this organism will go through
3. Metabolism3. MetabolismMetabolism- the sum of all
chemical reactions carried out in an organism
All living things carry out many chemical reactions in order to obtain and use energy to grow, move, and process information obtained from chemical reactionsDid you know?
A hummingbirds metabolism is 1,400 calories/kilogram compared to a dove that’s 127 calories/kilogram!
4. Homeostasis4. HomeostasisHomeostasis:
ability to maintain a stable internal environment even if the external environment changes
Did you know?Many arctic
animals can maintain a constant body temp. because of their thick layer of fat?
How do we maintain a constant body temp?
5. Heredity5. HeredityHeredity- the passing of traits from
parent to offspringA gene is the basic unit of heredity DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) –
molecule that carries directions for inheritance, for every organism on Earth
This is why children tend to look like their parents!
6. Evolution6. EvolutionEvolution- change in the
inherited traits of species over generations
All living things must be able to adapt to changing environmental conditions
7. Interdependence (LAST 7. Interdependence (LAST ONE!)ONE!)Interdependent- organisms are
dependent on one another and their environment for survival
Organisms in a biological community must live and interact with other organisms
7. Interdependence 7. Interdependence ExampleExampleJot – Pair – ShareDescribe interdependence in
terms of this picture of an owl and a mouse
Think about the food chain to help you describe this characteristic of life
Share with two other students
