These are NON - LIVING THINGS.

These are LIVING THINGS

These are LIVING THINGS

All living things share certain characteristics such as:

nutrition respiration excretion reproduction growth movement interaction

All living things are made up of tiny units called cells. The main parts of an animal cell are nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm and vacuoles.

In addition to these parts, plant cells present chloroplasts and cell wall.

• Cells are very small.• You need a microscope to

see most of them.• Different cells have different functions.

Bacteria are living things with just one cell.

3 vital functions

NUTRITION REPRODUCTION INTERACTION

All living things perform three vital functions:

NUTRITION is the process to obtain food. Plants and algae make their own food through photosynthesis The rest of organisms have to feed on

other living things.

REPRODUCTION allows living things to produce new organisms similar to them

SEXUAL ASEXUAL.

Reproduction can be:

INTERACTION: All living things interact with their environment and respond to stimuli.

Living things can be classified into five groups called kingdoms1. Animal Kingdom2. Plant Kingdom 3. Fungus Kingdom4. Protist Kingdom5. Monera Kingdom

Organisms of the same kingdom share similarities.

Ex: bacteria

Ex: algae and amoeba

Examples: bacteria

Most protist are found in waterEx: amoeba(unicellular)Ex: algae (unicelular or multicelular) can make their own food (photosynthesis)

Can be unicelular or multicelular. Can’t moveCan’t make own foodExamples: mushrooms, yeast, mould

• They can be multicelular or unicelular.•They can’t move around.• They eat the remains of dead plants or animals.

We divide them into…

Mushrooms Yeast

Fungi Kingdom

Mould
