The community in the lake plus the water, rocks, minerals, soil All the oceans, jungles an land where there is life
5 General Characterization of Living Things (p.-5) 1. All living things require energy & materials to maintain life Energy is the ability to do work for movement, chemical reactions, staying warm 2. All living things are homeostatic Homeostasis means stays the same e.g. body temperature, ph of blood, [O2] in blood 3. All living things respond to stimuli (information received by the senses) The nervous system processes this information thus resulting in an action or behavior. Behavior in animals is driven by minimizing injury, getting food & reproduction. All living things reproduce thus passing on their genes. Genes control everything in an organism including all the chemical reactions in an organism (metabolism). 5. All living things grow (get bigger) & develop (change occurs during growth causing distinct stages). From conception to death. 6. All living things are adapted modified bodies to suit their way of life (e.g. birds have hollow bones & feathers for flying) When species breed new variations of offspring occur if certain offspring are better equipped to survive then more of them will survive more of these offspring will reproduce thus their genes are passed on more often the species adapts to its surrounding environment EVOLUTION
