Biology
The study of life.
What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non-living?
![Page 3: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
There are six basic characteristics of life. All living things posses the following traits.
1. Show an orderly structure,or organization, of tiny units called cells.
2. Reproduce to make more living things. 3. Change during their lives through growth and
development.4. Adjust to their surroundings.5. Obtain and use energy to run the processes of
life.6. Pass on traits to their offspring.

2 types of Reproduction
1. ASEXUAL (binary fission) a single parent passes exact copies of it’s DNA to it’s offspring. Occurs in bacteria and single celled organisms such as the amoeba.
The single-celled amoeba demonstratesa simple method of asexual reproduction; it divides in half by a process called fission, producing two smaller daughter cells. Aftera period of feeding and growth, these two daughter cells will themselves divide in half.

2 types of Reproduction
2. SEXUAL - organisms having genetic characteristics derived from two parents are produced.
Male and female reproductive cells (gametes) unite to form a single cell, known as a zygote, which later undergoes successive divisions to form a new organism.

Adjust = HOMEOSTASIS
• Organisms respond to their external environment and then process the internal demands accordingly.
• The maintenance of stable internal conditions in spite of changes in the external environment.
Example: temperature of a human is always around 98.6 regardless of the temperature outside.
![Page 8: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why Do We Classify Living Things?
There are an estimated 10 million to 30 million species on earth.
Classification determines methods for
organizing the diversity of life on earth by
providing a framework of logic and order so
that relationships among living things and
once living things can be seen easily.
![Page 9: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Carolus Linnaeus
• Used physical characteristics to classify living things.
Example: bats fly like birds, but have fur and produce milk so they are placed into the mammal group.
![Page 10: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Linnaeus’ classification system is known as binomial nomenclature.
• Every organism is given a two-part scientific name.
1. Genus name is always placed first, is capitalized and underlined. Homo
2. The second word describes the organism in scientific terms. It is always lowercase and underlined. Sapiens
Human binomial name = homo sapiens
![Page 11: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
TAXONOMY
• Science of classifying organisms.
• Scientists identify new organisms and determine how to place them into an existing classification scheme.
• Scientists who study the grouping and naming of organisms are known as taxonomists.
![Page 12: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
CLASSIFICATION LEVELS
• 7 major levels• The system goes from most general to the most
specific.• Kingdom King Phillip came
Phylum over for good spaghetti.
Class If two organisms are in the
Order same order are they also in the same
Family same class? Phylum? Kingdom?
Genus Species
![Page 13: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SPECIES
• A GROUP OF SIMILAR LOOKING ORGANISMS THAT SHARE SIMILAR CHARACTERISTICS AND CAN INTERBREED WITH ONE ANOTHER TO PRODUCE FERTILE OFFSPRING.
horse + donkey = mule (non-fertile offspring)
species + species = non-species
![Page 14: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The Six Kingdoms
1. Archaebacteria Collectively 1 and 2
2. Eubacteria are known as Monera.
3. Protista
4. Fungi
5. Plantae
6. Animalia
![Page 15: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
I. Archaebacteria
• Ancient bacteria
• Prokaryotes (do not have a true nucleus), single celled organisms.
• Live in extreme environments such as salt lakes, swamps and VERY deep within the ocean.
![Page 16: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
II. Eubacteria
• True bacteria
• Found in practically every environment on Earth.
![Page 17: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
III. Protista
• First eukaryotic kingdom (true nucleus)
• Contains multicellular and unicellular species.
• Heterotrophic – feed off of others.
• Motile – able to move.Examples include Ameobas, Parameciums and
kelp.
![Page 18: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Peter Parks/Oxford Scientific Films
Amoeba Engulfing a Paramecium
An amoeba, a single-celled organism lacking internal organs, is shown approaching a much smaller paramecium, which it begins to engulf with large outflowings of its cytoplasm, called pseudopodia. Once the paramecium is completely engulfed, a primitive digestive cavity, called a vacuole, forms around it. In the vacuole, acids break the paramecium down into chemicals that the amoeba can diffuse back into its cytoplasm for nourishment.

IV. Fungi
• Eukaryotes• Unicellular or multicellular• Nonmotile -cannot move• Mostly decomposers – obtain energy by
breaking down organic material that they absorb from the environment.
• Cell walls contain chitin – tough outer covering found on insects.

Animalia
• 99% of the organisms in Kingdom Animalia are invertebrates – meaning they lack a backbone.
• Organisms that have a backbone are called verterbrates.
![Page 24: The Diversity of Life Biology The study of life. What characteristics do you look for to determine if something is living or non- living?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e865503460f94b89bb9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Animalia
• The Kingdom Animalia is divided into 6 phyla:
1. Sponges and Cnidarians
2. Mollusks
3. Worms
4. Arthropods
5. Echinoderms
6. Verterbrates

2. Mollusks
• Have something called a coulomb (sac-like structure) that encloses their internal organs.
• Most have a hard external skeleton (shell).
• Ex. Snails, oysters, clams, octopuses
