In order to use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to calculate genetic variation in a population which of the following conditions must exist in the population?
All organisms must reproduce.
Identify the basic characteristics of life that define a living organism?
There are 6 basic characteristics of a living organism: Movement, reproduction, sensitivity, growth, respiration, excretion, and nutrition. You'll have to find out for yourself whether or not they describe a living organism...... You have to move if you are alive, no matter what speed or quantity You have to reproduce in order for your species to survive You have to have certain amounts of sensitivity to different things. You have to grow because you might not be fully formed when you were born or created A spontaneous generation is a life form that appeared or created itself out of inanimate matter (basically an alive thing popping up out of microscopic stuff)
Classifying living organisms?
MRS C GREN - Move, Respire, Sense, Cells, Grow, Reproduce, Excrete, Neutrition * Move - The organism must be able to change its position. * Respire - It muse breathe * Sense - It must be able to sense, e.g. hear, see, smell, feel pain. * Cells - It must be made up of cells. * Grow - It must be able to get bigger. * Reproduce - It must be able to produce offspring. * Excrete - It must get rid of waiste products. * Neutrituin - It must require neutrition to live.
Identify characteristics that organisms must have to carry on the processes of life?
Organisms must have cells , must reproduce, respond to stimulus and reproduce to carry on the processes of life. They also ought to have energy to perform the various processes.
Can the non-living reproduce?
An organism must be a living organism in order to reproduce. If something is an organism but is dead or non-living, it is not reasonable to believe that it can reproduce.
What are the factors that qualify n organism as a animal?
Their are six major characteristics 1. The organism can move at least once in its life. 2. The organism must capture food (not make its own) 3. It must be multi-celled 4. They must be Eukaryotic (have a nucleus and organelles) 5. It must be able to digest its food 6. It must be able to reproduce sexually but it can also reproduce asexually.
Enumerate and define the characteristic of living organism?
The defining characteristic of a living organism is the ability to reproduce. Many scientists say that viruses are not really living organisms because they can not reproduce independently, but must enter a living cell and reproduce as the cell itself reproduces.
Do all living things have to reproduce in order to prove that they're alive?
If it is a living organism it must reproduce itself sexually or asexually. Reproduction of the organism ( not viral hijacking of the reproductive mechanisms ) is one part of the definition of living things.
Can plant seeds reproduce sexually?
Some plants reproduce sexually, depending on the type. Plant seeds must grow into plants before they can reproduce.

What is the first thing that must happen before an organism becomes fossilized?
It must die.
Is a cat a living organism?
Yes, a cat is a living organism. A living organism must have cells, it must reproduce, grow and develop, respond to change, have DNA, and it uses energy. A cat (a mammal) does and has all of those things. David (venom751998)
Must EVERY memeber of a particular species one kind of organism be able to reproduce in order for the species to survive?
No. It is not necessary for EVERY member of a species to reproduce in order for the species to survive. Consider humans. Some are infertile and can't reproduce, and some choose not to reproduce, yet the human species survives.
In order to use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to calculate genetic variation in a population which of the following conditions must exist in the population?
All organisms must reproduce.
Describe how the organism meets at least five of the characteristics of living things?
There are seven characteristics of living things. An organism must be composed of cells, have different levels of organization, use energy, respond to its environment, grow, reproduce, and be able to adapt to their environment.
