The different structures and characteristics among organisms make it possible for them to survive and reproduce in every place on Earth. Living organisms are found on every type of land, deep in the oceans and high in Earth’s atmosphere. Known Species on Earth Levels of Classification Biologists classify every organism into seven different levels - kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species. Each level contains organisms with similar characteristics. The Kingdom is the largest group and the most diverse. Organisms in this group share the least number of characteristics with each other. Notice that as you move to the lower levels of classification, the number of organisms decreases. The species is the smallest group. Organisms in this group share more characteristics with each other. Only organisms within a species are able to mate and produce fertile offspring. This chart traces the classification of a grizzly bear through each of the seven levels of classification.

Cells - The Basic Units of Life © Copyright NewPath Learning. All Rights Reserved. 94-4602 www.newpathlearning.com Cell membrane is the gate keeper of the cell that controls the passage of materials into and out of the cell. Plant Cell What is a Cell? The cell is the basic building block of all living organisms. It is the smallest unit of an organism that can carry out the functions of life. Robert Hooke was one of the first people to observe cells using his own compound microscope in 1663. Some cells are single, self-sustaining organisms such as amoebas and bacteria; other cells are part of multicellular organisms and cannot survive alone. bacteria amoeba paramecium skin cells nerve cell (neuron) blood cells The structures within the cell are known as organelles which carry out specific functions. Endoplasmic reticulum is a transport system of tubes and channels connecting organelles in the cell. Nucleus is the control center of the cell. It houses the nucleolus and the genetic material (chromatin). Nuclear envelope is a membrane which surrounds and protects the nucleus. Nucleolus is the site where ribosomes are made. Chromatin contains the genetic material that is used for directing the cell functions. Nuclear pores allow materials to pass in and out of the nucleus. Ribosomes are the factories that produce proteins needed by the cell. Cytoplasm is a gel-like substance containing the organelles. Lysosome contains chemicals (enzymes) that break down and recycle harmful materials. Mitochondrion is a rod-like structure that converts the energy in food molecules to a form that the cell can use. Golgi bodies are organelles that direct different materials made in the cell where they need to go. Cell wall is a rigid outer layer of plant cells that provides support. Vacuoles are sacs that contain water and store nutrients and waste products. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which captures energy from the Sun and uses it to produce food for the plant in a process known as photosynthesis. Specialized Cells The human body consists of trillions of cells, including some 200 different cell types that vary greatly in size, shape and function. Sperm cells are the tiniest human cells, a few micrometers wide (1/12,000 of an inch); whereas the longest cells, the neurons that run from the tip of the big toe to the spinal cord, can be as long as several feet in an average adult!

The first-generation or F1 generation resulted in all tall-stemmed plants. The subsequent, F2 generation had about 75% tall and 25% short- stemmed plants. Chromosomes and Inheritance The cell nucleus of most organisms contains chromosomes. The number of chromosomes is unique for each species. Each chromosome is made up of thousands of different genes which contain the instructions for an organism’s traits. Phenotypes and Genotypes A phenotype is the physical appearance of a particular organism. The genotype is the genetic make-up of a particular organism. Punnett Square A Punnett Square is a chart that shows all the possible combinations of alleles that result from a genetic cross. A capital letter (B) is used to represent a dominant trait and a lowercase letter (b) the recessive trait. Dominant and Recessive Alleles Mendel began to notice that some of the pea plants had similar traits as their parents. He hypothesized that each parent passes to the offspring a factor or a set of genetic “information” which controls a trait. The factors now called genes exist in pairs known as alleles, one inherited from each parent. An allele is a different form of a gene. A dominant allele is one whose trait will always show up in its presence. A recessive allele is one whose trait will be masked whenever the dominant allele is present. Gregor Mendel Gregor Mendel (1822-1884) an Austrian monk is known for his pea plant experiments that demonstrated the process of heredity. His discoveries form the foundation of genetics the study of heredity. www.newpathlearning.com © Copyright NewPath Learning.

Seedless Nonvascular Plants Plants are placed in two major groups nonvascular plants and vascular plants. Nonvascular plants lack roots and a system of tubes for transporting water and nutrients. They absorb water and nutrients directly from their environment. Vascular plants have a well-developed system of tubes for transporting materials throughout the plant’s body. Liverworts, mosses and hornworts grow in moist areas where they can absorb water and nutrients directly from their surroundings. Seed Plants Seed plants are vascular and use pollen and seeds to reproduce. There are two main groups of seed plants gymnosperms and angiosperms. Angiosperms An angiosperm is a owering plant that produces seeds enclosed in fruit. There are two major groups of angiosperms– monocots and dicots. Types of Angiosperms Ferns, club mosses and horsetails have vascular tissue and reproduce by releasing spores.

Animals digest their food. Most animals are capable of movement. Animals are multicellular (have many cells). Animal cells are eukaryotic. Each cell has a nucleus and organelles surrounded by membranes. Most animals undergo sexual reproduction. Structure of Animals The bodies of most animals (all except sponges) are made up of cells organized into tissues. Each tissue is specialized to perform a specific function. In most animals, tissues are organized into even more specialized organs. Organs are organized into organ systems. Functions of Animals Obtain food and oxygen Maintain stable conditions within their bodies Move in order to meet basic survival needs Reproduce Animal Symmetry If you have ever looked into a mirror, you will notice that you could draw a line down the center of your face and the arrangement of facial structures will be balanced. This is called symmetry and it is an important characteristic of most of animals. There are two types of symmetry: bilateral and radial symmetry. Bilateral Symmetry Radial Symmetry No Symmetry Biologists so far have discovered over 1.5 million different types of animals. Animals are grouped according to how they are related to other animals. This branching tree shows how major animal groups are possibly related. Major Animal Groups Introduction to Animals © Copyright NewPath Learning. All Rights Reserved. 94-4605 www.newpathlearning.com

SHIELD VOLCANO COMPOSITE VOLCANO CINDER CONE What is a volcano? A volcano is a rupture in the surface of one of Earth’s plates which allows hot, molten rock, ash, and gases to escape from below the surface. Ash cloud An ash cloud consists of bits of pulverized rock that spews into the air during a volcanic eruption. Crater At the top of many volcanoes is a funnel-shaped depression or crater formed during an eruption. Caldera A caldera is a circular depression that forms when a magma reservoir empties and causes the ground above to sink. Lava Lava is magma that flows on the Earth’s surface. Vent Pipe Geyser A geyser is a natural fountain that shoots hot groundwater and steam hundreds of feet into the sky at regular intervals. Basalt plain A basalt plain is a new crust that forms from lava that spills out onto nearby ground. Magma reservoir The intense heat and pressures in the mantle turn solid rock into liquid magma. Types of volcanoes Volcanoes can also be classified based on their shape. The three categories are cinder cones, shield volcanoes and composite volcanoes. Volcanoes © Copyright NewPath Learning.

The Sun The Sun is at the center of our solar system. It is a gigantic star made up of hot gases called plasma. The Sun’s energy is fueled by nuclear fusion reactions and makes all life possible on Earth. The Earth’s Moon The moon is a dry and airless place. It is the second brightest object in the sky after the Sun. Its surface is covered with pockmarks created by the impact of meteorites. The Moon revolves around Earth and also rotates on its own axis. It makes one complete revolution around the Earth every 27.3 days. The Moon is in what scientists call synchronous rotation. This means that the same side of the Moon faces the Earth at all times. Earth’s Seasons The Earth is simultaneously spinning on its axis (rotation) and revolving around the Sun. As the Earth revolves around the Sun, the degree to which various points on the globe are pointing toward or away from the Sun determines the seasons at those points. Photographic images courtesy of NASA. Spring Summer Fall Winter Phases of the Moon The revolution of the moon around the Earth makes it appear to look different to us throughout the month. At times we see the entire moon and at others, only a portion of it, with the rest being in shadow. The different appearances of the moon throughout the month are known as the moon’s phases. When the portion of the moon that is lit by sunlight is getting larger, the moon is said to be waxing. When that portion is getting smaller, it is said to be waning. full waning gibbous first quarter waning crescent new waxing crescent third quarter axis rotation revolution Seasons in the Northern Hemisphere waxing gibbous © Copyright NewPath Learning.

Solids Liquids Gases The particles that make up a solid are packed very closely together in a set position. This closely held arrangement of particles provides a solid material with a definite shape and volume. Solids are either amorphous or crystalline. The particles of amorphous solids such as butter, are not arranged in a regular pattern; whereas, the particles of crystalline solids such as salt or sugar, are arranged in a regular pattern. The particles in a liquid are packed close together but are free to move allowing liquids to flow. This particle arrangement gives liquids volume but not a definite shape. Liquids take the shape of the container that it’s poured into. Gases like liquids are fluids. However, a gas does not have a definite shape or definite volume. Particles of a gas can be squeezed together or spread apart in a container filling all the space available. The atoms and molecules of a gas spread equally throughout and fill a container of any size and shape. 50 100 150 200 250 300 50 60 70 80 90 100 40 30 20 10 particle view of a solid particle view of a liquid amorphous solid liquid liquid solid gas gas solid dry ice carbon dioxide gas evaporation boiling particle view of a gas crystalline solid © Copyright NewPath Learning. All Rights Reserved. 94-4609 www.newpathlearning.com Solids, Liquids & Gase s Changes of State Solid to Liquid Melting is the change in state from a solid to a liquid which takes place at a specific temperature, called the melting point. At its melting point, the particles of a solid vibrate so fast that they break free from their closely packed arrangement. Freezing is the reverse process of melting. At its freezing point, the particles of a liquid slow down and form regular patterns. Liquid to Gas Changes that take place between the liquid and gas phases include evaporation, boiling and condensation. Evaporation of a liquid takes place when the particles in a liquid gain enough heat energy to form a gas. Boiling takes place when a liquid changes to a gas just below and above its surface. Condensation is the opposite of vaporization. It occurs when the particles in a gas lose enough heat energy to form a liquid. Solid to Gas During sublimation, particles of a solid bypass the liquid state and form a gas. An example of this is when dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) changes directly into a gas. Quartz Orange
