1.2 Overview of Life’s Unity
A. Characteristics of Living Things

2. Reproduction
3. Based on a Genetic Code
4. Growth and Development
5. Need for Materials and Energy
• metabolism
6. Response to the Environment
7. Maintaining Internal Balance
8. Evolution
1.2 Overview of Life’s Unity
Section 1-3
Characteristic
Examples
Living things are made up of units called
cells.
Living things reproduce.
Living things obtain and use materials and
energy.
Many microorganisms consist of only a single cell.
Animals and trees are multicellular.
Maple trees reproduce sexually.
A hydra can reproduce asexually by budding.
Flies produce flies. Dogs produce dogs. Seeds from
maple trees produce maple trees.
Flies begin life as eggs, then become maggots, and
then become adult flies.
Plants obtain their energy from sunlight. Animals
obtain their energy from the food they eat.
Living things respond to their environment.
Leaves and stems of plants grow toward light.
Living things maintain a stable internal
environment.
Despite changes in the temperature of the
environment, a robin maintains a constant body
temperature.
Taken as a group, living things change
over time.
Plants that live in the desert survive because they have
become adapted to the conditions of the desert.
Living things are based on a universal
genetic code.
Living things grow and develop.

8. Evolution
5. The Need for Materials and Energy
•
Each normal living cell has ways to obtain and convert
energy from its surroundings
•
•
Producers can synthesize their own food from simple raw
materials.
•
•
•
Re: your metabolism is more then eating!!!! but
(autotrophs)
Green Plants, Algae
Consumers Cannot synthesize their own food
•
•
(Heterotrophs)
Herbivores, Carnivores, Omnivores, DECOMPOSERS

6. Response to the Environment
•
Receptors and the stimuli they receive
allow controlled responses to be made:
• heat and cold,
• harmful substances,
• Varying food supplies.
•
Homeostasis: the conditions of the
“internal environment” are maintained
within tolerable limits.
• Increased sugar causes insulin release, which
stimulates cells to take up sugar.
• Decreased blood sugar causes another
hormone to call on stored sugar reserves.

1.3 Why So Many Species

What do you call this?
Buzzards???
Texas Buzzard
Northern NY Buzzard
1.3 Why So Many Species

Need to Develop Classification
Schemes

Based on ????
All organisms are made FROM
similar materials and function
similarly
 Preview of Chapters 19-24

Taxonomy
The branch of Biology that deals with
the classification and naming of living
things.
Early Systems of Classification

Two Kingdom System- Plants and Animals





Discovery of the microscope!!!!
Three Kingdom System- Plant, Animal, + Protist
Four Kingdom System- Plant,Animal,Protist,Monera
Now have a FIVE kingdom System
Wait and a three Domain System
Three Major Domains
What is the common theme?
Three Domains
Three major Domains
1.
Archaea (bacteria):most ancient bacteria

Extremophyles: Halophiles, Methanogens
Bacteria (Eubacteria): True bacteria
2.

Autotrophic, bacteria of Decay
Eukaryotes: Having a nucleus
3.

Protists, Plants, Fungi, Animals

Eukaryote
1. Ex. Amoeba, hydra, worm,
human
2. Single and multicelled
organisms
3. Has membrane organelles

Adaptations (16.4)

An inherited trait or modification that improves the chance
of Survival and reproduction of an organism in a given
environment
What makes them similar?
What makes them similar?

What is the same or similar????

Comparative Anatomy (Homologous structures)
Comparative Biochemistry

Similar genes
ENZYMES,
hormones
Comparative Embryology
Comparative Cytology
Adaptations (16.4)
Defined
 Short term adaptations: plant stunted growth on a windy day.
• Not passed on
 Long term Adaptation: inheritable and improves
odds of surviving
 Due to Genetic Mutations
Long term Adaptations (16.4)
 Examples
 Salt tolerant Tomatoes in South America
• Local species are Not Tolerant
 Polar Bear adaptations
• NOT in the Desert
 The environment in which a trait evolved may be different
from the prevailing environment.
 Peppered Moth
 Llamas, high altitudes due to hemoglobin structure
• Camels have same capability yet live-in low altitudes.
1.4 Evolutionary View of
Diversity


What causes variations within a
population?
A: Mutations:inherited changes in the
DNA sequence




Many mutations are harmful
If the result is positive it has Adaptive
value/trait
Traits are variations in of a form
Evolution: heritable change in a line of
descent
1.4 Evolutionary View of
Diversity (links to Chapter 16.3)


Evolution: heritable change in a line of
descent
Charles Darwin

Natural Selection: When individuals differ in
their ability to survive and reproduce, the
traits that help them do so and become more
common in that population
• Peppered moth

How is this beneficial?
How is this beneficial?
The greater the variation within a
population the greater the stability
 More likely of its survival

• Antibiotic Resistance??
• Insecticide Resistance???
• Rodenticide Resistance????

Nomenclature
- is a system used for naming organisms.
Carolus Linnaeus,
1758, published published Systema Naturae.
*developed a two word system for identifying each
kind of organism:
1.
•
•

Binomial Nomenclature
This marks the beginning of the modern
classification of plants and animals
Binomial Nomenclature
Always use Genus Species
2. Genus- first letter is capitalized.
Species- all lowercased.
3. Both names are underlined or italicized.
