2. Reproduce (offspring)

3. Respond (detect change in environment)

4. Use energy

5. Maintain Homeostasis

6. Cellularly organized

7. Adapt, Evolve, transfer DNA

• Cell-basic unit of the structure & function of living things.

There are 6 kingdoms of life:

5. Archaebacteria

6. Eubacteria (monera)

There are 5 kingdoms of classification:

Document Summary

Living things: grow & develop, reproduce (offspring, respond (detect change in environment, use energy, maintain homeostasis, cellularly organized, adapt, evolve, transfer dna, cell-basic unit of the structure & function of living things. There are 6 kingdoms of life: plants, animals, protists, fungi, archaebacteria, eubacteria (monera) There are 5 kingdoms of classification: prokaryotae, protoctista, fungi, plantae, animalia, decomposers- are organisms that break down dead or decaying organisms, and they help carry out the natural process of decompositions. They are heterotrophic-they use organic substrates to get their energy, carbo and nutrients for growth and development: omnivores-kind of animal that will eat other animals or plants. Some hunt their food to eat like carnivores, they eat other omnivores and herbivores. Some are scavengers and will eat dead matter. Eat eggs of animals, fruits and plants: carnivores- these feed on the flesh of animals and sea animals.
