There are 7 characteristics that all living things must have in order to be considered alive. Organization Metabolism Homeostasis Growth and Development Adaptation Response to Stimuli Reproduction  Organization Living organisms are composed of one or more cells, the basic units of life. Cells are organized into tissues, organs, and organ systems, which work together to perform various functions.  Metabolism The chemical reactions that occur within living organisms to sustain life. Includes processes such as respiration, photosynthesis, and digestion.  Homeostasis The ability of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in the external environment. Involves mechanisms such as temperature regulation, water balance, and pH control. Growth and Development The increase in size and complexity of an organism over time. Involves the processes of cell division, differentiation, and morphogenesis.  Adaptation The ability of an organism to change or adjust to a new environment or situation. Allows organisms to survive and reproduce in changing environments. Response to Stimuli The ability of an organism to detect and respond to changes in its internal or external environment. Involves mechanisms such as sensory perception, signal transduction, and behavioral responses.  Reproduction The ability of an organism to produce new individuals of the same species, either sexually or asexually. Ensures the continuation of the species and the transfer of genetic information. End of Activity 1:  Activity 2: Cell Flipbook All living things are made up of cells. Each part of the cell has its role and purpose. These parts are essential in the cellular processes that keep cells from functioning properly.

Create a portfolio that compiles all activities. explain how cell division takes place describe different types of cell transport 2. Create a flipbook 3. Present a flipbook 4. Process the topics on the flipbook What is a flipbook? Flipbook is a small book consisting of a series of images in different positions that create the illusion of flowing movement when the thumb is placed so the pages flip quickly.  INSTRUCTIONS 1. You will be grouped in according to the available number of the class. (Note: The groupings will be determined by your facilitator.)  INSTRUCTIONS 2. Read and understand all eight (8) questions below. A. How are gametes formed in the body? B. How do somatic cells replicate? C. How is oxygen transferred from the lungs to the blood? D. How is glucose (sugar) transported across the membranes of red blood cells? H. How does the sodium-potassium pump in cells work? I. How are materials expelled from the cell without going through the cell membrane? J. How is iron transported into cells? K. How do wrinkled fruits and vegetables swell when placed in water?  INSTRUCTIONS 3. Create a flipbook for questions A-H. HOW ARE GAMETES FORMED IN THE BODY? A Gametes, which are the reproductive cells (sperm and egg cells), are formed through a specialized cell division process called meiosis. Gametogenesis is the process by which gametes are produced in the gonads (testes in males and ovaries in females). HOW ARE GAMETES FORMED IN THE BODY? A Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, creating haploid gametes from diploid precursor cells. In meiosis, a diploid cell (containing two complete sets of chromosomes) undergoes two successive cell divisions, resulting in four haploid cells (containing one complete set of chromosomes). HOW DO SOMATIC CELLS REPLICATE? B Somatic cells replicate through the process of cell division, which involves the duplication of the cell's genetic material (DNA) and the subsequent partitioning of the replicated genetic material into two genetically identical daughter cells. This process is known as mitosis. HOW DO SOMATIC CELLS REPLICATE? B Why do cells undergo mitosis?  HOW DO SOMATIC CELLS REPLICATE? B Why do cells undergo mitosis? 1. Growth and development 2. Tissue repair and renewal 3. Asexual reproduction 4. Maintenance of cell populations 5. Wound healing 6. Immune response Mitosis is a fundamental process that allows multicellular organisms to develop, function, and adapt to their environment.  HOW IS OXYGEN TRANSFERRED FROM THE LUNGS TO THE C BLOOD? Oxygen is transferred from the lungs to the blood through the process of gas exchange, which occurs in the alveoli of the lungs. The steps involved in the transfer of oxygen from the lungs to the blood are as follows: 1. Ventilation: Air is inhaled through the nose or mouth, and it travels down the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles, eventually reaching the alveoli in the lungs.  HOW IS OXYGEN TRANSFERRED FROM THE LUNGS TO THE C BLOOD? 2. Diffusion: The alveoli are tiny air sacs surrounded by a network of capillaries (small blood vessels). Oxygen (O2) molecules in the alveolar air diffuse across the thin alveolar-capillary membrane due to the difference in partial pressure of oxygen between the alveolar air and the blood in the capillaries.  HOW IS OXYGEN TRANSFERRED FROM THE LUNGS TO THE C BLOOD? 3. Oxygen binding to hemoglobin: As the oxygen diffuses into the blood, it binds to the hemoglobin molecules in the red blood cells. Hemoglobin is a protein that has a high affinity for oxygen, allowing it to efficiently transport oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.  HOW IS OXYGEN TRANSFERRED FROM THE LUNGS TO THE C BLOOD? 4. Oxygen-rich blood circulation: The oxygenated blood, now containing hemoglobin with bound oxygen, is carried away from the lungs through the pulmonary veins and then into the left atrium of the heart. The heart pumps this oxygen-rich blood to the body's tissues through the systemic circulation. HOW IS GLUCOSE (SUGAR) TRANSPORTED ACROSS THE D MEMBRANES OF RED BLOOD CELLS?  HOW IS GLUCOSE (SUGAR) TRANSPORTED ACROSS THE D MEMBRANES OF RED BLOOD CELLS? Glucose is transported across the membranes of red blood cells (erythrocytes) through a process called facilitated diffusion, which utilizes specialized transport proteins called glucose transporters (GLUTs). Once inside the red blood cell, the glucose can be used as an energy source through various metabolic pathways, such as glycolysis, which generates ATP (adenosine triphosphate) to power the cell's functions. HOW DOES THE SODIUM-POTASSIUM PUMP IN CELLS WORK? E The sodium-potassium pump, also known as the Na+/K+ ATPase, is an essential membrane protein that plays a crucial role in maintaining the electrochemical gradient across the cell membrane. The sodium-potassium pump is found in the cell membranes of almost all animal cells and plays a crucial role in maintaining the electrochemical gradients necessary for proper cellular function and signaling. The sodium-potassium pump is an active transport mechanism, meaning it requires energy in the form of ATP to function. HOW ARE MATERIALS EXPELLED FROM THE CELL WITHOUT F GOING THROUGH THE CELL MEMBRANE? Cells have a specialized mechanism to expel materials without directly crossing the cell membrane, and this process is known as exocytosis. In exocytosis, the materials to be expelled are first packaged into membrane-bound vesicles within the cell. These vesicles then fuse with the cell membrane, allowing their contents to be released outside the cell. HOW ARE MATERIALS EXPELLED FROM THE CELL WITHOUT F GOING THROUGH THE CELL MEMBRANE? By using the vesicle-mediated exocytosis process, cells can efficiently expel materials without directly exposing the cell contents to the external environment, maintaining the cell's structural and functional integrity. HOW IS IRON TRANSPORTED INTO CELLS? G Endocytosis is one of the key processes involved in the transferrin-mediated iron transport into cells. Endocytosis is a cellular mechanism where materials or substances are brought into the cell by forming a vesicle around them. This endocytosis-based mechanism allows the cell to efficiently internalize the transferrin-bound iron, which is otherwise unable to cross the cell membrane directly. The energy required for the formation and internalization of the endocytic vesicle is provided by the cell's metabolic processes, making this an active transport mechanism. HOW DO WRINKLED FRUITS AND VEGETABLES SWELL WHEN H PLACED IN WATER? The cell walls of the fruits and vegetables act as a semipermeable membrane. When they are dried, concentration inside becomes higher. On placing in water, the process of osmosis takes place. So, they swell and return to their original form. The process will be accelerated with increase of temperature because osmosis becomes faster with increase in temperature. End of Activity 2. Activity 3: The Search for Microbes Prokaryotes are known to be microscopic while eukaryotes are macroscopic, but did you know that some eukaryotes are actually microscopic?
