🗑
|
||||
| What do biologist do as part of their career? (5 things) | study diversity of life ( learning about the organisms may help protect them), Research diseases (develop vaccines, look for new medicines), develop technologies such as bionic hands, improve agriculture and seek ways to prevent extinction.
🗑
|

| Characteristics of living things include the following list ( page 7) | made of one or more cells, has organization (each organized structure has a specific function), grows and develops, reproduces, responds to stimuli, requires energy, maintains homeostasis, and has adaptations that evolve over time
🗑
|
||||
| What are to possibilities for organisms when it comes to their cells? | they can be unicellular ( 1 cell) or multicellular ( many cells)
🗑
|
||||
| The basic unit of life is a/an | cell
🗑
|
||||
| Structures in organisms have a relationship with their.... | FUNCTION
( each organized structure has a specific function...the structure of an anteater's snout relates to its functions... a container for an anteater's long tongue
🗑

| reactions to internal or external stimuli are called | responses
🗑

| natural changes that take place during the life of an organism | development
🗑

🗑
|
||||
| processes to restore the normal state | homeostasis
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
