Characteristics of Life, Cell Theory, Cell Organelles

A plant growing towards the light is an example of 

• reproduction.
• responding to a stimuli.
• metabolism.
• homeostasis.

The maintenance of an organism’s internal environment is called:

• compensating
• homeostasis
• balancing
• routine

The "cause" for something to happen is the

• response
• effect
• stimulus
• homeostasis

What is an adaptation?

• A feature or behavior that helps an animal survive.
• The food that an animal eats.
• How energy moves in a food web.
• How animals evolve throughout time.

The image seen here is of a person shivering due to cold temperature. This is an example of an organism maintaining ________________ in action!

• Homeostasis
• Adaptations
• Evolution
• Development

The process whereby an organism produces more of its own kind

• development
• adaptation
• homeostasis
• reproduction

A plant using sunlight to make food to use or a deer eating leaves from a shrub are examples of

• universal genetic codes.
• organisms made of cells.
• responding to a stimulus.
• metabolism.

Reproduction that only involves one parent and all offspring are identical; for example, binary fission of bacteria or amoebas.

• Asexual

• Sexual

• Division

• Addition

When a baby kitten becomes an adult cat, this is an example of...

• energy metabolism
• growth and development
• response to stimuli
• having cells

Identify the characteristic: A camel has eyelashes that work to keep the dust and sand out of its eyes.

• All living things adapt/respond to their environment

• All living things grow

• All living things have cells

• All living things use energy
