Fur/hair, placenta, feed young on milk from mammary glands, external ears visible

Features of fish

Loose, wet scales on skin, gills, lay shell-less eggs in water

Features of amphibians

Smooth moist skin, larvae live in water and have gills, cold blooded, adults live on land and have lungs

Name the arthropods

Myriapods, insects, crustaceans, arachnids

Name features of arachnids

2 part body, 4 pairs of jointed legs, no antennae

Name features of myriapods

Many segments with a pair of jointed legs on each, a pair of antennae

Name features of crustaceans

More than 4 pairs of jointed legs, chalky exoskeleton formed form calcium, breathe through gills, 2 pairs of antenna

Features of protoctists

most are unicellular some multicellular, all have a nucleus, some may have cell walls and chloroplasts, some protoctists photosynthesise and some feed on organic substances

Features of prokaryotes

Often unicellular with cell walls with no nucleus

Ferns

Have leaves called fronds, reproduce through spores on underside of fronds

Flowering plants

Reproducte through flowers and seeds, can be divided into 2 groups monocotyledons and dicotyledons

Features of monocotyledons

Contain petals in multiples of 3, have parallel leaf veins, narrow and grass like leaves

Features of dicotyledons

Contain petals in multiples of 5, have reticulated leaf veins, broader leaves

Movement

an action by an organism or part of an organism causing a change of position or place

Respiration

the chemical reactions that break down nutrient molecules in living cells to release energy for metabolism

Sensitivity

the ability to detect or sense stimuli in the internal or external environment and to make appropriate responses

Growth

a permanent increase in size and dry mass by an increase in cell number or cell size or both

Reproduction

the processes that make more of the same kind of organism

Excretion

the removal from organisms of toxic materials, the waste products of metabolism (chemical reactions in cells including respiration) and substances in excess of requirements

Nutrition

the taking in of materials for energy, growth and development

Name the features of insects

3 part body, 3 pairs of jointed legs, 2 pairs of wings, and 1 pair of antennae
