This is the first Criterion for Life

What is All life contains DNA

100

This is the second Criterion for Life

What is All life forms have a method by which they extract energy from the surroundings and convert it into energy that sustains them

100

This is the third Criterion for Life

All life forms can sense changes in their surroundings and respond to those changes

100

This is the fourth Criterion for Life

All life forms reproduce

100

The smallest chemical unit of matter

What is an Atom

200

DNA are the cells instruction on arranging chemicals to produce life, this is the part of the DNA holds the information?

What are the nucleotide bases

200

We Humans and Animals get our energy from the foods we eat whereas Plants get their energy from this

What is ultimately from the Sun

200

A rock may be able to change depending on its environment but explain why it's not alive

Because the rock didn't sense the change and respond. It was physical force that changed the rock

200

With so many reproduction methods, we can expect to have many outcomes. Why might a group of animals have many offspring vs why other groups have just a few.

We can assume that the animals having many offspring live more dangerous lives compared to the animals that just have a few

200

The process by which green plants and some other organisms use the energy of sunlight and simple chemicals to produce their own food

What is Photosynthesis

300

There are two main components of DNA, the information and this (a.)

What is the backbone of the DNA

300

This process uses the energy from the sun along with two other "ingredients" to produce "food" 

for $300 extra points name the two other ingredients

What is Photosynthesis
for extra 300 points, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O)

300

We don't like pain, but explain why it is actually helpful to experience pain

It is helpful because it's our body's way of letting us know it senses something wrong so that we can change what is occurring and fix our body

500

Metabolism is where an organism converts energy (such as sunlight) and matter (such as eating food) from outside sources and use that energy and matter to sustain the organism’s life functions. What three things are produced

Energy, Carbon Dioxide, and Water
500

Living organisms use these to sense their surroundings and if need be change

What are Receptors

500

C.

What are Organelles

500

The sum total of all processes in an organism that convert energy and matter from outside sources and use that energy and matter to sustain the organism's life functions (when an organism "eats" and uses the "food" for energy so it can stay alive)

What is Metabolism
