celled micro-organisms that get their nutrients fro their environment to live eg: The human body. Bacteria causes infections and can reproduce either inside or outside the body. Viruses are pieces of nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) wrapped in a thin coat of protein. Viruses need to be inside living cells to grow and reproduce. They do not survive long unless they are inside a living thing eg: person‚ plant or animal. This is called a host. Fungi are multi celled plant like organisms. They can

Students will develop an understanding of life science while understanding the five main topics of the disciplinary core ideas: 1) Structure and Function‚ 2) Inheritance and Variation of Traits‚ 3) Matter and Energy in Organisms and Ecosystems‚ 4) Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems‚ and 5) Natural Selection and Evolution. Students will be expected to blend the disciplinary core ideas with scientific and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts to support their knowledge that can be

A alpine Wallaby’s organism niche is a small group‚ or something that appeals to a small percentage of the whole population. The term niche is used to describe the role an organism or population plays within its community or ecosystem. It encompasses all relationships that the organism or population has with its environment and with other organisms and populations in its environment. threat to younger animals as well.

dictionary life is “ The condition that distinguishes organisms from inorganic objects and dead organisms‚ being manifested by growth through metabolism‚ reproduction‚ and the power of adaptation to the environment through changes originating internally.” I believe that the best way to analyze what life is by distinguishing the differences of a livening and a non living organism as a living organism has life and a non living organism does not. Living organisms acquire six characteristics; they are able to

compound on the planet‚ is a material which is essential for all living organisms. Its uses in all living things cover a huge variety of everyday functions which are immeasurably important to the continuity of the organism. The fact that water makes up between 60 and 95 percent of all living organisms speaks for itself on the incredible biological importance of this compound. One of the major functions of water in living organism is its use as a solvent. Because water is slightly ionised‚ other polar

part of my experiment‚ which involved the EMB and MSA plates. My lab partner and I were required to take a marker and on the back of our EMB and MSA plates section each plate into four quarters. We then labeled each quadrant of both plates with one organism that we were given at the beginning of the lab. Next we labeled our plates with our names and lab times. We were then prepared to inoculate our plates. Starting with the EMB plate‚ I first sterilized my inoculation loop and dipped it into the test-tube
