Study Notes
Characteristics of Life
- Responsiveness to stimuli is a characteristic of life that involves the reaction to changes in the environment.
- A key feature that distinguishes living organisms from non-living things is their ability to respond to stimuli, regulate metabolic processes, and evolve and adapt to the environment.
Cell Structure
- Unicellular organisms are composed of a single cell, not many cells.
Life Processes
- Living organisms regulate their metabolic processes to maintain homeostasis.
- Living organisms respond to stimuli, which is a fundamental characteristic of life.
- Populations of living organisms evolve and adapt to the environment through the process of natural selection.
