    Study Notes

    Biosphere - Biology

    • Biosphere: all living things and their environment
    • Organic substances: complex compounds containing carbon
      • Examples: plants and animals
    • Inorganic substances: simple compounds, no carbon
      • Examples: gases, rocks, and water
    • Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids
    • Water and mineral salts.
    • CELLS
      • Cell wall
      • Cytoplasm
      • Genetic material
      • Cell membrane
      • Chloroplast → Photosynthesis
      • Mitochondria → Respiration
      • Nucleus
      • Organelles
      • Vacuole

    Levels of Organization

    • Cells → Tissues → Organ → Systems → Living thing

    Life Processes

      1. Nutrition
      • Autotrophic: make their own food (photosynthesis)
      • Heterotrophic: feed on other organisms
        • Herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, parasites, detritivores, and decomposers
      1. Interaction: detect changes and interact to them
      1. Reproduction
      • Asexual: one parent → clones (same as the parent)
      • Sexual: two parents of different sexes → new individual

    Classification of Living Things

    • Kingdom → Phylum → Class → Order → Family → Genus → Species
