8 Characteristics of LifeLiving things are made up of basic units called cellsThese cells are ORGANIZED (cell organization)Living things are based on a genetic codeLiving things obtain and use materials and energyLiving things have a METABOLISMLiving things reproduceLiving things GROW and DEVELOPLife responds to their environment (STIMULI)Living things maintain HOMEOSTASISMaintain a stable internal environmentLiving things EVOLVE (change over time)7 Characteristics of LifeLife is ORGANIZED (cell organization)Life responds to STIMULI (responsiveness)Living things maintain HOMEOSTASISLiving things have a METABOLISMLiving things GROW and DEVELOPLiving things REPRODUCE (using DNA, passing on genes)Living things EVOLVE

B Life responds to STIMULIExamples: https://www.youtube.com/

C Organisms maintain HOMEOSTASISThis is the maintenance of stable internal conditionsExamples: Temperature, levels of water, nutrient uptake

D Energy Use or METABOLISMThis is defined as processes that take in and transform energy from the environmentExamples:

E GROWTH and DEVELOPMENTLife grows and then changes (matures)

F REPRODUCTIONPassing of genes to offspringSexual DNA from two organismsAsexual Organism produces exact copy of itself

22G Life Changes over time (Evolution)Organisms evolve because of traits / adaptations which made them more successful at surviving and reproductingAdaptation Trait that improves an organisms chance of survivalhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faRlFsYmkeY(Homer Evolution)

Use the glossary to define the following terms.

Theory Well test explanation that unifies a broad range of observations and hypothesis (enables scientists to make accurate predictions)Homeostasis Organisms ability to maintain of stable internal conditionsEX: Temperature, levels of water, nutrient uptake

Metabolism Combination of chemical reactions allowing organisms to build up or break down materialsThis is defined as processes that take in and transform energy from the environmentSexual Reproduction Reproduction in which cells from two parents unite to create the first cell of a new organismOffspring are uniqueAsexual Reproduction Reproduction involving a single parent that results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parentCell the basic unit of a living thing

Quiz Friday!Organisms maintain HOMEOSTASIS

D Energy Use or METABOLISMSexual DNA from two organismsAsexual Organism produces exact copy of itself

Characteristics of life review:

What does it mean if an organism is maintain its homeostasis? What are two types of reproduction? _____________________ and __________________What is it called when a population changes over time? Give an example of an adaptation that makes humans be successfulWhat are the two main drives of all organismsWhat is metabolism? Give an example of a stimuli that you respond to.

The Big Ideas in Biology

What do these mean?

Cellular Basis of LifeLiving things are made of cells (single or multicellular)

Information and HeredityLiving things are based off information in the genetic code This code is found in your DNA

Matter and EnergyLiving things require matter that provide energy and the nutrients needed to survive

The Big Ideas in Biology

What do these mean?

Growth, Development and ReproductionAll living things must reproduce, grow and develop

HomeostasisLiving things control their internal environment

EvolutionLiving things change

Structure and FunctionLiving things have specific body parts that provide specific functions (eyes, legs, etc) The Big Ideas in Biology

What do these mean?

Unity and Diversity of LifeLiving things are very different, but at the molecule level the same (proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, carbohydrates)

Interdependence in NatureBiosphere living planetOrganisms are linked to biotic and abiotic factors

Science as a way of knowing.Use of scientific method to explain observations

9/16No ATB

Today:CDT Make ups???Test!Get out your study guides to turn in

Need a pencil!

Choose the best answer and put it on the scantronQUIZ BONUS:What does anatomy study?The EndScientific Method == ReviewWhat do we use science for? Helps explain the world around usHow does this work?Usually starts with a questionWhy do things fall? How do plants grow? Why do leaves change color in the fall? What do barnacles eat?This usually leads to a prediction and your hypothesis (sometimes in the if-then format)IF stuff falls then it is because the atmosphere is pushing down on themHypothesis - Proposed explanation for a phenomenon

Scientific Method (cont)Next, you want to test your hypothesisDesigning your Experiment Control Group setup that stays the same in the experimentExperimental Group setup that is changed in the experimentIndependent Variable factor that you are testing Dependant Variable or responding variable (changes because of the independent variable)General StuffBiosphere planet that sustains life

Ecosystem communities of living organisms and their non-living environmentBiotic = livingabiotic = non-living

Evolution changing of a population over time81Natural Selection traits that are beneficial are more likely to be passed to offspring - survival of the fittestAdaptations Traits that improve organisms ability to survive and reproduceFitness An organisms contribution to genes to the next generation

Grey micehave better camouflageMeaning they get eaten lessMeaning they pass on their grey genes to the next generationWhich means a higher fitness

Describe how natural selection works.

Natural Selectionhow does it work?Create your own hypothesis explaining how giraffes evolved long necks, assuming their ancestors were shorter. What evolutionary pressure caused the longer necks? (Why did it happen?)Giraffe fight!!!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7HCIGFdBt8
