Today on the Biology class our teacher, Cecilia Adem, asked us to follow her instructions on the whiteboard and post the information on our Blogs. We used the information of pages 9 and 10 from our Biology books. Down here is the chart we made in class by the information of the books.

Biology Chart

Class Skin Gills or Lungs Limbs Eggs Ears
Fish

(Cold blooded)

 Scaly Skin Have Gills Have Fins Eggs laid in water Absent but lateral line senses vibration
Amphibia

(Cold blooded)

 Scale-Less Skin The larva has gills, the adult has lungs Have legs Eggs laid in water, larva lives in water Visible Ear, present inside the head
Reptiles

(Cold blooded)

 Scaly Skin Have Lungs Most reptiles have limbs, others don’t Lay eggs on land with rubbery shells, then they get harder, waterproof Don’t have very visible ears, very small
Birds

Characteristics of living organisms

Leave a comment

Today the Biology teacher, Cecilia Adem, gave us some exercises to learn and practice about the living organisms. you can see the exercises she gave us clicking here. She also asked us to work in pairs, I worked with Lucas Vorbeck.

Activity 1

  1. The living things can make their own food, eat, move and most important they can grow. Humans, animals and plants can die, while not living things cant. The living things can also breath and reproduce.

2. We can see two humans, two dogs and a tree.

3. The clothes, a house, a stick the dog is holding, the kettle and the glass a man is holding.

Activity 2

  1. The car needs oil to be used, if not it cannot produce energy to move. We need food to get energy and move. The car can move, humans, animals and plants can move too.

2. Because the car cannot grow, the car needs to be moved it cannot be moved by itself, the car cannot reproduce or breath.

Activity 3

a. Growth

b. All animals and plants

c.  Photosynthesis

d.  Irritability and Movement

2. Organism, Respiration, Movement, Nutrition, Growth, Reproduction, Excretion, Irritability.

Activity 5

  1. Duck, house-fly, bat, eagle, owl and mosquito.
  2. Bat and owl.
  3. Fish, whale, seal and duck.
  4. Those organisms that have feathers: Duck, eagle and owl.
