Characteristics of Living Things

ALL living things have common characteristics ALL living things have common characteristics. What are those characteristics?

1. Made of 1 or more cells Unicellular (one cell) - ex. Bacteria Multicellular (many cells) - ex. Animals, plants

2. Need energy to survive Autotrophs - get energy from sun Heterotrophs - get energy by consuming nutrients from their environment

3. Grow and develop Each cell divides to make new cells (cell division) – results in growth Some cells become specialized and perform different jobs than others (differentiation)

4. All living things reproduce Sexual - two sex cells required (sperm and egg) Asexual - only one parent cell is needed

5. Respond to stimuli in their environment Stimuli - factors in the environment that living things react to (ex. Light, temperature, sound, etc.)

6. Adapt and evolve over time Evolution - gradual change in a population of organisms over time Individuals DO NOT evolve
