  1. The Organization of Living Things

  2. Characteristics of Living Organisms 1. Organization-cell-basic unit of all living organisms 2. Metabolism-biochemical activity to build up or break down material 3. Homeostasis-balance-equilibrium 4. Movement (Biological)-locomotion 5. Growth and repair 6. Reproduction-asexual, cellular, Sexual, new species 7. Response to a stimulus 8. Adaptation-a change over time

  3. Larger Size Longer Life Specialization Multicellular

  4. Tissue • A group of cells that work together to perform a specific job • Four basic types of animal tissue • Nerve tissue • Muscle tissue • Connective tissue • Protective tissue • Plant tissues • Transport Tissue • Protective Tissue • Ground Tissue

  5. Organs • A structure that is made up of two or more tissues to perform a specific function Organ System • A group of organs working together to perform a function

  6. Organism • Anything that can perform life functions by itself

  7. Structure and Function • The arrangement of parts in an organism • Includes: • Shape • Material • The job the part does
