Coordinating their body functions and for distributing food and energy. 5 some way of perceiving features of their environment, such as. 6 perhaps have some way of communicating with each other. Additional characteristics which we might infer, based on the biology of. Animals, are, that these organisms: have a defined life cycle, with a single individual constituting the entire. Life cycle: have two sexes, have a lifecycle which consists of juvenle and adult phases, have some mechanisms for ridding themselves of waste/toxic products, have expanded senses for perceiving/measuring the environment in ways.
