  • Characteristics of Living Things4:31

    Every living organism have certain traits that it needs to be demonstrating in order for it to classify as “living”. There are 7 characteristics that we need to go through. If even a single one of these characteristics are not present in an organism, then it not alive.

    1. Movement – An action by an organism or part of an organism causing a change of position or place

    2. Respiration – The chemical reactions in cells that break down nutrient molecules and release energy for metabolism

    3. Sensitivity – The ability to detect or sense stimuli in the internal or external environment and to make appropriate responses

    4. Growth – Permanent increase in size and dry mass by an increase in cell number or cell size or both

    5. Reproduction – The processes that make more of the same kind of organism

    6. Excretion – Removal from organisms of the waste products of metabolism (chemical reactions in cells including respiration), toxic materials, and substances in excess of requirements

    7. Nutrition -Taking in of materials for energy, growth and development; plants require light, carbon dioxide, water and ions; animals need organic compounds and ions and usually need water
