1 Life Processes in Living Things
Biology I

2 Transport How does the organism move needed substances into & out of cells? Plants Xylem: moves water & minerals up Phloem: moves food up & down Diffusion, Osmosis, Endocytosis, Exocytosis Cellular basis Circulatory System Move across large distances Open vs. Closed

3 Transport – Cellular Level

4 Transport - Plants

5 Transport – Circulatory System

6 Excretion How does the organism removal waste from the body?
Diffusion: high  low (cell to cell) Plants: transpiration (H2O & O2) Protists: contractile vacuole, anal groove Animals: Diffusion Malpighian Tubules (insects) Kidneys

7 Excretion - Protist

8 Excretion - Mammals

9 Respiration How are O2 & CO2 exchanged? Transpiration (in plants)
Simple diffusion through moist surface Skin Trachae (insects) Gills (aquatic organisms Lungs (higher animals)

10 Respiration - Plants

11 Respiration - Animals

12 Regulation/Homeostasis
To maintain balance/equilibrium Single-Celled Organism - diffusion Multi-cellular Organisms Nutrients – blood sugar Wastes Body Temp pH

13 Nutrition Process of getting nutrients into the cells of the body
Protists: endocytosis, oral groove, diffusion Plants: roots, photosynthesis Animals: digestive system, villi

14 Nutrition - Endocytosis

15 Nutrition

16 Reproduction Continuation of the species/offspring
Asexual: identical to parents Binary Fission – bacteria and/or protists Budding Fragmentation Sexual: variation from parents External: sperm + egg meet outside the body Must live in water Internal: sperm + egg meet inside the body

17 Asexual – Binary Fission

18 Asexual - Budding

19 Asexual - Fragmentation

20 Sexual – creates variation
External Fertilization

21 Sexual Internal Fertilization

22 Growth & Development Growth: increase in amount Development: changes
mitosis Development: changes Amniotic Egg –creates a boundary that allows the embryo to develop on land (w/o water) Metamorphosis Complete: egg  nymph  adult Incomplete: egg  larva  pupa  adult Butterflies, flies

23 Complete Metamorphosis

24 Incomplete Metamorphosis

25 Amniotic Egg
