Characteristics of Life Six Characteristics all living things share

Name some living things. Why are they living?

1. Cellular Organization Organism – any living thing Cell – basic unit of structure and function in all living things ◦ Unicellular – one celled ◦ Multicellular – more than one cell

2. Similar Chemical Make Up Chemical CompoundPurpose Water Carbohydrates Proteins and Lipids Nucleic Acids Medium for chemical reactions Cell’s main energy source Building materials of cell structures Genetic Material

3. Energy Use We use energy for everything!!!

4. Response to surroundings Stimulus – any change in an organism’s surroundings that causes a reaction Response – an action or change in behavior

5. Growth and Development Growth means getting bigger or adding parts Development means there is a change that occurs over the organism’s life

6. Reproduction The ability to produce offspring that are similar to parents

Francesco Redi Spontaneous Generation – the idea that living things come from non-living things Biogenesis - Life comes from preexisting life

Louis Pasteur Strengthened Redi’s findings that there has to be life to make more life. Living things can NOT come from non- living things (especially after one boils them to death).

NEEDS OF LIVING THINGS

Four Basic Needs Water Food ◦ Autotroph - organisms that make their own food (plants) ◦ Heterotroph – organisms that obtain food by eating others (most)

Four Basic Needs Living Space Stable Internal Conditions ◦ Homeostasis – the maintenance of stable internal conditions
