Anatomy :The study of an organism's shape and structure
Cell:Are the small units of living things can be alive
Unicellular:A single cell that performs all the organismsfunctions
Multicelular:Contains many different cell
Homeostasis:An organism or cell must maintain a stableinternal condition
Reproductions:Is the process by which life continuesthrough the generation of a new organism
Metabolism:The sum of chemical processes of life
Nutrients:Substances on food that provide organismwith energy
ATP:Converting the energy with nutrients into a formthe cells can use it
Cellular respiration:By combining nutrients with oxygen
The purpose of science is carefully observing nature,discovering the laws of creation , and using those
laws for mankind's benefit
you should keep a notebook of your observations about nature
Characteristics of living things:
1.Organized structure

For wath is science:For study of mankind
Flora:Plant live
Fauna:Animal live
Symmetry:Is the ability of an object to be cut intoequal halves that are mirror images of each other
Bilateral symmetry :Can be cut only one way to create similar right and left halves
Radial symmetry:can be cut multiple ways to create mirror halves
Asymmetrical:Organisms cannot be cut into equal halves
EnvironmentIs everything surrounding the organismbeing studied
Terrestrial:Environments on land,like meadows
Habitat:The home of an organism
The ground beneath your backyard is teeming with life
Diurnal:Most familiar terrestrial organisms or activemainly during the day
Nocturnal:Active mainly at night , some of nocturnalanimals are raccoons,garden toads,fireflies,and
months
Dormant:Inactive,This states to help them conservestored energy
Soil is one of the habitats in your backyard
Other terrestrial environments include desert,mountains,savannas,and jungles
Animals like Deer,squirrels and certains birds active during the winter

Arboreal:Animals that live in trees
You should never eat a wild mushmorrow
Trackers:Those who looks for and follow the tracksof animals
A few key features of tracks are size number of toes claw marks and movements
Meadow:A forest
Aquatic:Water environments
Freshwater:The water contains little if any, salt
Marine:Environments in the sea and oceans which containsalt water
Intertidal zone:the area between the highest and lowestpoints that the tide reaches
Tide pool:Collections of salt water and sea life thatcould not escape when the tide went out
Coral reefs:Shallow waters in warmer parts of theworld sometimes have a large formations
Hydrothermal vents:environment found near hot springsin the ocean floor

Taxonomy:The science of classification
John Ray:Pioneer of taxonomy,a Puritian clergymanwho live in England,The wisdom of God
manifested in the works of the creation
Species:A distinct type of organism
Carolus Linnaeus:Swedish botanist,father of taxonomy
Body structure:The primary basis for classifying livingthings
Kingdoms:All living things into main categories
Kingdom Plantae:plants that make their own food throughphotosynthesis
Kingdom Animalia:multicellular animals that can moveand collect food
Kingdom Fungi :plant-like organism that do not maketheir own food
Kingdom Bacteria:true bacteria,including ones thatcause diseases
Kingdom Archaebacteria:bacteria that often live inextreme environments
Latin and Latinized greek use Carolus Linnaeus
Phyla:Kingdom is divide into a few large of groups
Classes:Used to divide phyla into subcategories
Orders:The classes divide
Families:The orders are divide
Genara:Families are divide
Scientific name always consist of its genus and species name
The latin species name pratense (of meadows) and repens(sudden) tell us specifically which clover is
benign studied
To a scientist,no matter where he lives ,one impatiens type is impatiens pallida and impatiens capensis
Every scientific name is either italicized or underlined and has the genus name capitalized
System and structure:The primary basis for classifyingliving things

Sir Francis Bacon:The founders of modern science
Bacon introduced the scientific method to help himself and others scientist effectively study each part
of nature
Scientific method:Is a way for scientists to gatherand purse scientific knowledge
The three parts of any scientific method are hypothesizing,observing ,and
experiment
Hypothesis:Hypothesizing involves thinking about theobjects and events of nature and creating a
sensibility explanation
Observation:Is gathering data(facts) about naturein an organized way
Experimentation:the methodical testing of hypotheses
Empirical:data gained through observation and experimentation
From the three parts of the scientific method,scientist have created six basic steps to follow:
.State the problem
1
2.Gather information about the problem
3.Formulate a hypothesis
4.Test the hypothesis by experimentation
5.Record and analyze the experiment
6.State the conclusion
Theory:After many experiments and observation ona topic have ben record,scientist may take their
conclusion
Law:Is a theory has never been proven false,scientist

Applying the six steps:
1.State the problem
2.Gather information
3.Formulate a hypothesis
4.Test hypothesis
5.Record and analyze
6.State the conclusion
Every experiment has many Variables
Dependent variable:a factor that is observe to determinethe results of the experiment
Independent variable:the factor that you change totest your hypothesis
An experiment should have only one independent variable
Controlled variables:All variables other than dependvariable and independent variable
Experimental groups:the groups on which a test isperformed
Control groups:a group in which the independent variableis absent
By comparing the results of the differents groups,you gain empirical evidence as to whether you a
hypothesis is correct or not
Variables:factors that you as an experiment can control
Data variable :facts about nature
Scientific habits:
1.Curiosity
2.Creativity
3.Orderliness
4.Intellectual honesty
5.Acceptable of uncertainty
6.Skepticism
7.Openness to new ideas

Logic:the study of reasoning,is essential for anyscientist
Evidence:in any subject reasoning involves takingfacts
Inference:a conclusion based on reasoning from evidence
What distinguishes scientific reasoning is that it use empirical evidence form observations of nature
and that the inference as hypothesis about how nature works
Logicians:peoples who study logic
Deductive reasoning:reasoning from evidence to morespecific conclusion
Inductive reasoning:reasoning from specific evidenceto a more general conclusion

Inductive reasoning may be used to develop a hypothesis;autumn. Since the only things that
changes are the season and those factors affected by it(such as shorter days and colder
temperatures), it is reasonable to infer that thestart of autumn somehow Inductive reasoning can
never prove a hypothesis beyond all doubt.
Model:is anything that provides a partial representation of something else
