Properties of life, Domains and Kingdoms, and Darwins thoery of Evolution

What are the 7 diffrent properties of life

Order

Reproduction

Growth and Developemnt

Response to the enviorment

Energy processing

Regulation

Evolutionary adaption

(ORGRERE)

define order

Organisms are comprised of highly ordered structures

• Symmtrey

• Highly ordered to the molecular structure

Define reproduction as a property of life and the two types

Organisms can reproduce

Asexual reproduction: 1 organism

Sexual reproduction: 2 organism

Define growth and development as a property of life and how

Organisms grow and develop over time

How organisms grow and develop is dictated by their DNA and the envoirment

Define Response to the enoivrment as a property life and give an example

Detect change and respond

ex. Bodies can sense when we are to cold or to hot

Defien energy processing as a propety of life

Organisms are able to take energy from one source and harness it for thier needs

Define regulation as a property of life

“maintain homostasis”

are able to regulate their internal envoirment in spite of the external enviroment

Define evolutionary adaption as a property of life

Organisms can become uniquely adapted to survive in their environement

What is an additional charctist of life

DNA

DNA as a property of life

All life that we know of contains DNA or deoxyribonuclic acid

Where and what is DNA

Housed within cells

contains the instructions for buildign and mainting cells

DNA codes ofr proeins and proteins make us who we are

What do viruses have that would consider them living

Order

DNA

can adapt

can reproduce

How can viruses reproduce

Why would most scientists claim that viruses are not living

1. Cannot reproduce on thier own

2. Cannot reulate thier internal envoirment

3. NOT CELLS

What is domain Bactiera

Bacteria

what is domain Archaea

Archara

What do damain bacteria and archea have in common?

They are both simple cells

What is included in domain eukarya

Protists, Kindgom plantae, Kingdom Fungi, Kingdom Animalia

What is included and the definition of Kingdom plantae

Plants, produce thier own food by photosynthesis

What is included and the definition of kindgom fungi

Fungi, whose members decompose organic wates and abosrb the nutrients into thier cells

What is included and the definition of kingdom animalia

Animals, obtain thier own food by eating other organisms

Define evolution

The process of change that has transformed life on earth

Define Descent with modification

all speicies living today arose from a succession of ancestors that were diffrent from them

what does descent with modification explain

Explains unity of life (common ancestors) and diversity of life

Define Natural Selection

the primary mechanism of evolution

A process in which individuals with certain inherited traits are more likly to survive and reproduce than are individuals that do not have those traits

Define Artifcial selection

The selective breeding of domesticated plants and animals to promote the occurence of desirable traits
