11/5/1350th Day of School Learning goal (7.L.1): I will be able to describe the characteristics of Euglena. Due Today: Characteristics of Lifefoldable Evening Assignment: Finish Euglena part of chart
On the slip of paper, write the eight characteristics of life shared by all living things? Do Now http://vimeo.com/15407847
All living things… • Are organized (cells, structures) • Reproduce (pass on genetic material) • Use energy • Grow& develop • Remove waste • Regulate Internal Conditions (homeostasis) • Respond to the environment • Evolve and Adapt What characteristics do all living things share? Characteristics of Life http://becklespinax.blogspot.com/
As you watch note what role each of the following plays in the life of unicellular organisms: • Nucleus • Flagella • Cilia • Pseudopod • Cytoplasm • Vacuole • Cell membrane • Mitochondria • Chloroplasts Life Functions of single-celled Organisms
On the OUTSIDE flap use the red as headings • Organized • Reproduce • Use energy • Grow and develop • Remove waste • Regulate Internal Conditions • Respond to environment • Evolve and Adapt On the INSIDE flaps • Explain the heading in your own words • Give an example of a specific organisms and that characteristic • Resources: • Textbook pages C9-11, C20-24, C27-31 • http://infohost.nmt.edu/~klathrop/7characterisitcs_of_life.htm • http://www.ck12.org/biology/Characteristics-of-Life/ • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life • http://library.thinkquest.org/C003763/pdf/origin06.pdf Make a Characteristics of Life foldable Characteristics of Life Foldable
On the BACK On the FRONT Definition: A cell is the basic unit of life that is able to perform basic life functions. Examples: Euglena: single-celled organism Red blood cell: cell in human body that carries oxygen Cell Cell Autotroph Photosynthesis Heterotroph 4 Vocabulary Flashcards
Inside Flaps Living things are organized into structures (cells, organelles, tissues, etc.) that perform life functions. _____________________ For example, humans are made up of many cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems that help us use energy, remove waste, respond to the environment, and reproduce. Outside Flap All life is Organized Example Characteristics of Life Foldable
Organization: Single-celled, flagellate algae with a red eye spot • Respond to Environment: Single flagella allows it to move toward food or away from predators • Energy Use: Autotroph- makes it’s own food like plants; Heterotroph- eats other organism • Evolve/Adapt: When water is scarce, forms a cyst Euglena
Autotroph (makes it’s own food) • Sense light using red eyespot • Move toward light with flagella • Chloroplasts -> photosynthesis • Can also feed heterotrophically by engulfing food • Waste is removed by the vacuole Euglena Feeding & Waste removal
Asexual reproduction only • Through binary fission • One organism splits into two genetically identical organisms Euglena Reproduction
