QUEST REVIEW WITH MISS DELL - If you did not do your homework - If you got one or more wrong the QUEST check - You would like a further review of the Characteristics of Living Things

All other students - Work on your QUEST - Read Pages 7-11 and Answer Question 4 - Watch Wacky History of the Cell Theory - Explore Understanding Resources - Brainstorm for your Extended Thinking Adventure (Proposal due Thursday)

The 6 Characteristics of Life 1. Cellular Organization 2. Made of Similar Chemicals 3. Use energy 4. Respond to surroundings 5. Grow and Develop 6. Reproduce 6 characteristics of life video:

1. Living things are Organized Cell- basic unit of structure and function in an organism. Living thing are made up of small units called cells. Each cell has an orderly structure and contains genetic material – a blueprint for the cell’s organization and function. Unicellular – one cell. EXAMPLE: Bacteria Multicellular – more than one cell. EXAMPLE: Humans! Entamoeba gingivalis

2. Living Things Contain Similar Chemicals a. WATER- most abundant chemical in cells b. Carbohydrates c. Proteins d. Lipids e. Nucleic Acids (DNA)

3. Living things use energy

List 3 things for which cells use energy: REPAIR GROWTH MOVEMENT OF MATERIALS; BUILDING MOLECULES

4. All living things respond to their surroundings Stimulus- a change in an organism’s surroundings that causes the organism to react Response- an action or change in behavior

5. Living things Grow and develop Growth- the process of becoming larger Development- the process of change that occurs during an 0rganism’s life to produce more complex organisms

6. All living things reproduce The ability to produce offspring that are similar to the parents.

Spontaneous Generation Theory Idea that life can spring from nonliving matter. Most people believed in this theory until the 1600s! What observations could have supported this theory?

For example, People believed: -Mice came from straw -Frogs and turtles developed from rotting wood and mud at the bottom of a pond. -Flies came from rotten meat.

Francesco Redi’s Experiment How did this experiment disprove spontaneous generation? Page 19-20, Figure 1.10

QUEST CHECK: Which of the following are a part of the Cell Theory? A.All living and nonliving things are made of cells. B.All living things are made of cells. C.Cells are the most complicated structure in living things. D.Cells are not important to living things. E.Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things. F.Living cells only come from other living cells. G.Living cells come from living and nonliving cells.

DEFINITIONS Cell- Basic unit of structure and function of living things. Organelles- structures that make up a cell.

Unicelluar vs Multicellular: (1:49); (2:26) Question 10 &11

How are multicellular organisms organized? Are we just a pile of cells?

6. In Multicellular Organisms: Cells  Tissues  Organs  Organ Systems 7. Cell- the basic unit of structure and function in living things (Ex. Nerve Cell) Tissue- Group of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function (Ex. Nervous Tissue) Organ- Different tissue that work together (Ex. Brain) Organ System- Group of organs that work together to perform a major function (Ex. Nervous System)
