7. Studying Life Science 8/12/13 Life Science What are living things (organisms) made up of? • Is the study of all living things (animal, plant, fungus, or microbe) • Organism: term used when speaking of a living thing • Living things(organisms) are made up of cells • Some organisms are made up of only one cell. • Other organisms are made up of many cells. • Unicellular: organism made up of only one cell • Multicellular: Organism made up of many cells Page 2 R

8. 8 Characteristics of living things (organisms) All are made up of one or many cells, reproduce, get their information from DNA, grow and develop, obtain and use materials and energy, respond to their environment. maintain a stable environment, and all evolve. Summary: Write 3 sentences of what you learned today. Page 2R

9. We all have these in common. 8 Characteristics of Life

10. Living things share 8 characteristics: • Living things are made up of units called cells. • Every organism is composed of at least one cell. 1.) single-celled or unicellular 2.) many-celled or multicellular

11. b. There are two broad categories of cells: • prokaryotic—no organized nucleus nor membrane bound organelles; found in bacteria and cyanobacteria • eukaryotic—do have an organized nucleus and membrane-bound organelles such as Golgi apparatus and mitochondria. All other organisms such as plants and animals have this kind of cell.

12. Living things reproduce. There are two basic kinds of reproduction: • Asexual—only one parent and all offspring are identical; for example, binary fission of bacteria or amoebas. • Sexual—two cells from different parents unite to produce the first cell of a new organism.

14. Living things are based on a universal genetic code (DNA). • The directions for inheritance are found in deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA. • The genetic code is basically the same for all organisms on Earth.

15. Living things grow and develop. • For single-celled organisms, growth is mostly an increase in size. • Multicellular organisms go through a process called development, where cells divide and differentiate into different kinds of cells.

17. Living things obtain and use materials and energy. • The combination of chemical reactions through which an organism builds up or breaks down materials as it carries out its life processes is called metabolism. • Autotrophs (also called producers)—plants, most algae, and some bacteriaobtain their energy directly from the sun through photosynthesis.

18. c) Heterotrophs (also called consumers)—most other organisms, rely on the energy stored during photosynthesis. • Herbivores—eat plants and other photosynthesizing organisms • Carnivores—eat the herbivores or other carnivores • Omnivores—eat both plants and animals • Decomposers—such as bacteria and fungi; obtain energy from the remains of organisms that have died

20. Living things respond to their environment. • Organisms detect and respond to stimuli from their environment. • A stimulus is a signal to which an organism responds. • External stimuli include temperature and light. • Internal stimuli come from within, such as blood sugar level or feeling thirsty.

21. Living things maintain a stable internal environment. • Even though external environmental conditions may vary widely, most organisms must keep internal conditions, such as temperature and water content, fairly constant. • Maintaining a stable internal environment is called homeostasis(Greek, same condition).

22. Taken as a group, living things change over time (living things evolve). • Plants have adapted to living in dry and hot deserts. • Fossils of ancient organisms can be used to show how organisms have changed over time.

23. What skills do scientists who study life science use? Observations Inferring Scientists make observations, infer, predict, classify, and make models. The use of your senses (sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell) to make sense of something. After making an observation, you make a judgment based on reasoning or what you already know to be true. Page 2R

24. Predicting Classifying Making Models Guessing what will happen next based on the information you have. The process of grouping together items that are alike in some way. Making smaller or bigger replicas of complex objects or processes. Summary: Write 3 sentences of what you learned today. Page 2R

37. Observe, Question, Comment Inside a Cell 8/15/13 8/16/13 Inside A Cell 8/15/13 8/16/13 Summary Page 4L Page 4R

38. Inside a Cell 8/15/13/ 8/16/13 What is a cell? Cells: are the basic unit of structure and function in all living things (orgamisms). Structure: describes what something is made of and how its parts are put together (what something looks like) Function: Purpose or job of a part (what something does) Example: Structure: Spoon Function: ? 4R

39. Inside a Cell 8/15/13/ 8/16/13 How big is a cell? So small you cannot see one by just looking at them. Draw a square that is 1cm by 1cm. If we were to take this much of our skin, this would be 100,000 cells! 4R

40. Inside a Cell 8/15/13/ 8/16/13 What is inside a cell? Inside a cell are many tiny structures (parts) called organelles. Organelles : part inside a cell that does a specific functions within the cell 4R

41. Inside a Cell 8/15/13/ 8/16/13 • No! • There are two types of cells: animal and plant cells. • They are different by the type of organelles they have. • Turn to page 90-91 How are the cells different (which organelles are different?) • Animal cells have 10 different ones • Plant cells have 12 different ones. Do plants and animals have the same type of cells? 4R

42. Inside a Cell 8/15/13/ 8/16/13 • However, since they have many of the same organelles we can say that both types of cells function similarly. Do plants and animals have the same type of cells? 4R

43. Independent WorkGraphic Organizer!

44. Group Jobs • Red: Make sure that all materials are in the material box (use list for items). • Yellow: Put textbooks/workbooks back Green: Collect assignments/make sure the names are on them, organize paper • Blue: Monitor that tables and floors are clean at the end of the day.
