Characteristics of Life ▪Organization ▪Metabolism ▪Responsiveness ▪Growth ▪Development ▪Reproduction Characteristics of Life ▪Organization ▪ Specific relationship of individual parts of the organism. ▪ Living things are highly organized. ▪ Composed of one or more cells. ▪ Some cells are composed of highly specialized organelles. ▪ Disruption can result in loss of function or death. Characteristics of Life ▪Metabolism ▪ Ability to use energy to perform vital functions. e.g.: growth, movement, reproduction Characteristics of Life ▪Responsiveness ▪ Ability of an organism to sense changes in the environment. ▪ Makes adjustments depending on the changes to maintain life. e.g.: Hunter-gatherer society. Characteristics of Life ▪Growth ▪ Increase in size ▪ Increase in cell numbers, size or amount of substance surrounding the cell. e.g.: bone growth Characteristics of Life ▪Development ▪ Changes an organism undergoes through time. ▪ Involves growth and differentiation. ▪ Differentiation: change in cellular structure and function e.g.: Conception until death Characteristics of Life ▪Reproduction ▪ Formation of new cells or organisms. ▪ Without this, species could go extinct. Homeostasis ▪Homeostasis ▪ Existence and maintenance of a constant environment. ▪ Ability of the body to return to normal or stable state despite fluctuations. ▪ Cells functions according to the maintenance of its fluid environment. Homeostasis ▪Homeostatic Mechanisms ▪ Normally maintain body’s function relatively constant to the environment. ▪ Govern mostly by nervous or endocrine system. ▪ Organ systems help control constant internal environment. Homeostasis Homeostasis ▪Negative Feedback Mechanisms ▪ Negative means “bad” or “undesirable” ▪ To decrease ▪ Compensates to make smaller or resist any deviation from set point in response to stimulus. Homeostasis Homeostasis ▪Positive Feedback Mechanisms ▪ Occurs when initial stimulus further stimulates the response. ▪ Required to re-achieve homeostasis. ▪ It keeps the reaction going instead of stopping the effector. ▪ Occasionally detrimental instead of helpful. 1.5 Homeostasis Homeostasis ▪Comparison Between Negative- Feedback and Positive-Feedback Negative-Feedback Positive-Feedback Stops the effector Keeps the reaction going Always maintain the Breakdown the homeostasis conditions of homeostasis of the system Occur more frequently Less common but occur in specific situations The response is opposite to Response is same to the the original stimulus original stimulus or is promoted.
