4) Give waste: ALL organisms give off waste

5) Heredity Traits: Organisms have features that their parents have

6) Growth and Development: Organisms grow and develop (puberty)

Answer 5

Living things are characterized by properties such as cellular organization, energy processing, growth and development, response to stimuli, reproduction, and adaptation to the environment. Additionally, living organisms are capable of maintaining homeostasis and exhibit evolution over time.

Answer 6

All cells use and need energy in order to survive. Organisms and animals all go through the process of converting energy so that they can use it appropriately.
