Living vs Not

​What does it mean to be living?

Well you have the characteristics of life


Go to the next slide to review the information.

Match

Match the following characteristics of life to the example that demonstrates that

• Made of Cells

• Growth and Development

• Reproduction

• Use Energy

• Adaption

Unicellular or Multicellular

Dog gets bigger

A cat has kittens

An athlete uses pasta to run a marathon.

I bat can use echolocation in the dark.

• Unicellular or Multicellular

• Dog gets bigger

• A cat has kittens

• An athlete uses pasta to run a marathon.

• I bat can use echolocation in the dark.

Multiple Choice

Why is water not considered living?

• As water moves with will bend when some static electricity is brought to it

• A pond of water can grow bigger as more water molecules are added to the pond

• It is made of hydrogen and oxygen which are not cells

• Energy is used as water

Dropdown

Select answer

to pass on traits to offspring, and being organized.

Multiple Choice

Who is the smallest?

• Bacteria Cell

• Eukaryotic Cell

• Virus

• Plant Cell

Multiple Choice

Which of the following does a virus have?

• Cytoplasm

• Nucleus

• Cell

• None of the above

• All of the above

Multiple Choice

Which of the following does a Virus have?

• Protein Shell

• DNA/Genetic Material

• Lipids

• None of the above

• All of the above

Multiple Choice

What does a virus have to interact with in order to reproduce?

• Host

• Heat

• Acid

• Base

Multiple Choice

What does the virus take over once it enters the cell?

• The cytoplasm

• The protein making structures

• The ER

• The Golgi Apparatus

Multiple Choice

How long will the cell make the "baby" viruses for?

• Until the cell is no longer a prokaryote

• Until the cell is no longer a eukaryote

• Until the cell bursts and releases the viruses

• Until the cell has used up all of its energy.

Multiple Choice

What is made by the body to protect the body?

• Antibiotics

• More Viruses

• Memory Cells

• Proteins

Genetic Material = DNA or RNA

Type of Virus

Attacks to bacteria

Part of the Bacteriophage

• ​Head contains the genetic material

• Tail Fibers allow the virus to attach to bacteria

• Tail is used to inject genetic material into bacteria

​Bacteriophage

Genetic Material will carry virus information so more viruses can be made.

Like HIV, Coronavirus is circular in shape.

Still contains the most important parts of

genetic material
Outer covering: envelope

​

​CORONAVIRUS

Labelling

Drag the words to the spaces.

Drag labels to their correct position on the image

Genetic Materia

head

Tail

Tail Fibers

​Head/Capsid

This outer covering will protect the genetic material even during times where there is an environment that is not good for them.

​Tail and Fibers

Fibers will attach to the cell and the tail will be used to inject the genetic material into the cell

Round viruses will fuse with membrane and enter the cell.

​Genetic Material

This can be DNA or RNA.

It carries the code/instrucitons on how to make more viruses.

Allows virus to take control of the cell.

Multiple Choice

Which part of the virus will be used for attachment?

• tail fibers

• head

• genetic material

• capsid

Multiple Choice

What is does the genetic code do for a virus?

• It determines its characteristics and functions.
• It decides what the virus will have for dinner
• It determines the virus's favorite color
• It controls the weather patterns

Multiple Choice

What part of the virus will code for the production of new viruses?

• Protein coat
• Lipid membrane
• Enzymes
• Genetic material or RNA

Multiple Choice

What part of a bacteriophage virus will protect it's genetic material from the environment?

• Capsid

• Tail

• Tail Fibers

• Sheath

Multiple Select

Which of the following is a life cycle of a virus?

• Lytic Cycle

• Attachment Cycle

• Lysogenic Cycle

• Expansion Cycle

Dropdown

During the lytic cycle the virus will inject its DNA into the cell and have the cell make ​

Select answer

of the virus. After so many viruses are made, the cell will ​

Select answer

open during a process called ​

Select answer

.

Dropdown

During the lysogenic cycle, there are​

Select answer

host cells. This means that the virus will not want to kill its host right away. During this cycle, the genetic material will ​

Select answer

with the host's genetic material. The host will make copies of ​

Select answer

and the virus will wait and then ​

Select answer

and make lots of babies.

Multiple Choice

True/False: the lytic and lysogenic cycles do not interact at all, in any point.

• True

• False

Multiple Choice

True/False: a virus is nonliving.

• True

• False
