Imaginary Organism• Create an imaginary (new)

organism that has not previously existed or does not currently exist.

• Draw and color your imaginary organism.

• After you have drawn and colored your organism, answer the questions to the right on the back of your organism.

• Cells: Is your organism unicellular or multicellular?

• Homeostasis: How does your organism maintain its internal environment? (body temp, chemical balance)

• Response: How does your organism respond to predators? How does it protect itself?

• Energy/Nutrition: How does your organism obtain energy from food? What does your organism eat?

• Growth/Development: How does your organism increase in size or develop during its lifetime?

• Evolve: What/Who is the ancestor of your organism? Who did it evolve from?

• Reproduction: How does your organism make more of its kind, asexual or sexual?
