What four things do living creatures do?
They breathe, grow, smell and reproduce. bacteria do not smell, plants do not smell, fungi do not smell bacteria do not breathe, plants do not breathe, fungi do not breathe to breathe is to force air in and force air back out. well there are at least 7 Living things are organized. living things acquire substances + energy (eat or absorb energy) living things reproduce living things respond to stimuli (behavior) living things are homeostatic (they tend to stay the same) ie body temp or pH of blood. Living things grow and develop. grow= get bigger. develop = change from birth to death living things adapt to their surroundings due to pressures from environment
What are the characteristics shared by living things?
All living organisms must have or made up of cells.
What Three things that are carried around the body in the blood plasma?

Why is blood important to living things?
cause it carries nutrients to the cells.it also collect all waste in the body
What are the seven characteristics of living things and their example?
1) Living things move (humans can move with help of their muscles)2)they respond to stimuli(we respond when someone touches us)3)living things respirate(we take in oxygen leave carbon dioxide)4)living things reproduce5)living things excrete6)growthreproducegrowthenergyadaptationsorganizationhave one or more cellsrespond to changes in environmentW.E.R.G.L.O.C.livings thing produce -Wastliving things need -Energylivings things -Respond to its environmentliving things -Grow and repair its selfliving things -Live and breatheliving things produce -Offspringliving things are made of -Cellsfrom: http://www.saburchill.com/chapters/chap0001.htmlThe Seven Characteristics of Living ThingsFeedingAll living organisms need to take substances from their environment to obtain energy, to grow and to stay healthy.MovementAll living organisms show movement of one kind or another. All living organisms have internal movement, which means that they have the ability of moving substances from one part of their body to another. Some living organisms show external movement as well - they can move from place to place by walking, flying or swimming.Breathing or RespirationAll living things exchange gases with their environment. Animals take in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide.ExcretionExcretion is the removal of waste from the body. If this waste was allowed to remain in the body it could be poisonous. Humans produce a liquid waste called urine. We also excrete waste when we breathe out. All living things need to remove waste from their bodies.GrowthWhen living things feed they gain energy. Some of this energy is used in growth. Living things become larger and more complicated as they grow.SensitivityLiving things react to changes around them. We react to touch, light, heat, cold and sound, as do other living things.ReproductionAll living things produce young. Humans make babies, cats produce kittens and pigeons lay eggs. Plants also reproduce. Many make seeds which can germinate and grow into new plants.
What functions are being able to metabolize grow digest food and excrete watse?
In order to be categorized a "living" thing, it must perform 7 essential functions: 1. Feeding - All living organisms need to take substances from their environment to obtain energy, to grow and to stay 2. Movement - All living organisms show movement of one kind or another. All living organisms have internal movement, which means that they have the ability of moving substances from one part of their body to another. Some living organisms show external movement as well - they can move from place to place by walking, flying or swimming. 3. Breathing or Respiration - All living things exchange gases with their environment. Animals take in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. 4. Excretion - Excretion is the removal of waste from the body. If this waste was allowed to remain in the body it could be poisonous. Humans produce a liquid waste called urine. We also excrete waste when we breathe out. All living things need to remove waste from their bodies. 5. Growth - When living things feed they gain energy. Some of this energy is used in growth. Living things become larger and more complicated as they grow. 6. Sensitivity - Living things react to changes around them. We react to touch, light, heat, cold and sound, as do other living things. 7. Reproduction - All living things produce young. Humans make babies, cats produce kittens and pigeons lay eggs. Plants also reproduce. Many make seeds which can germinate and grow into new plants.

What are ten life processes that distinguish living organisms from non-living forms?
Digestion- breakdown of food substances into simpler forms Absorption- passage of substances through membranes and into the body circulation- movement of substances in bodily fluids Assimilation- changing of absorbed substances into chemically different forms. Excretion- removal of wastes produced by metabolic reactions Movement- change in position; motion Responsiveness- reaction to change growth- increase in body size without changing shape Reproduction- production of new organisms and cells respiration- obtaining oxygen; removing carbon dioxide; releasing energy from foods. Differentiation- unspecialized to specialized.
