  1. HARGO Foldable Get three sheets of paper – three different colors.

  2. Top flap, write… Characteristics of Life

  3. Homeostasis – (p 9) organism’s regulation of its internal environment to maintain conditions suitable for survival. Type Stimulus Response Benefit Plant:Maple tree shorter light Leaves drop - conserve H2O /day - avoid freezing Animal : Hummingbirds longer light migrate north - less competition /day for resources. H

  4. Adaptation – (p 9) evolution of a structure, behavior, or internal process that enables an organism to respond to environmental factors and live to produce offspring. Type Adaptive structure advantage for or behavior survival Plant:Venus fly-trap - gets nutrients by - can live in bogs/swamps eating insects that have a high acidic pH Animal :Deer fawn - has white spots - it’s camouflaged while waiting for doe to return. Also lacks smell. A

  5. Reproduction – (p. 7) production of offspring by an organism. Type Strategy Benefit Plant: Dandelion - pollen carried by bees seeds spread - seeds spread by wind further Animal : Mallard (duck) - Males court females, Avoids leaves female to raise attracting young by herself predators EC: # of offspring & survival rate in first year R

  6. Growth – (p.8) increase in the amount of living material and formation of new structures in an organism. Type Size/mass as Size/mass at a seedling or full maturity at birth Plant:Western 400,000 seeds/lb 8-10 feet dia. Redcedar 200 ft. tall Animal :Bison 45-60 lbs 770-2200 lbs 6.5-11.5 ft. long 5-6 ft. @ shoulder G

  7. Organization – (p. 7) orderly structure of cells in an organism. Type Phenotype* distinctive physical features Plant: Rose - flowers are multi-petalled, scented (or family of plants) & colorful, thorns on branches, shrub sized. Animal:Canines - long rostrum, canine teeth, overlapping (or family of animals) molars, 4-legged, built for running, vocal communication. *(p. 258) outward appearance of an organism, regardless of its genes. O

  8. Biology: Characteristics of Life assignmentAssignment date: _________Due: next classSpecifics: Typed, complete sentences, MLA heading, 1.5 spacing, 1 in. margins, New Times Roman, 12 pt font. Suggestion – leave space for drawn cartoons or pictures and paste in the order represented here. • H – Write a sentence or design a cartoon demonstrating your understanding of homeostasis; • A – Write a sentence or design a cartoon demonstrating your understanding of adaptation; • R – How is reproduction related to adaptation? Provide an example of the difference between a species and a hybrid. • G – All life begins as a single cell. How might you relate how you grow to how a cell grows? Find a picture of an animal cell and a plant cell. • O – Find on computer or cut out a picture from a magazine of a plant &an animal. Label 5 distinctive features of each.
