What is Life?
Â
You have learned the living things display nine specific characteristics:
Â
Respond to external stimuli
Adapt to the environment
Contain materials found only in living organisms
Alter the environment
Use energy
Maintain a constant internal environment (homeostasis)
Sense the environment
Reproduce
Have a high degree of organization
These characteristics determine what something must have in order to be classified as biotic (alive) or abiotic (not alive). Please choose something inside your home and apply all nine criteria discussed in the Reading assignment to it. Before you arrive at Seminar, write down the name of each criterion and then state whether or not your selected object fulfills it.
Â
Be prepared to also discuss the following scenario:
Â
Gerald proudly displays his pet rock, complete with its cardboard cage in his bedroom. His sister, Marianne, has a Chia Pet® in her bedroom. The Chia Pet is a planter shaped like a puppy, with sprouts growing on the puppy planter's back and head simulating fur.
Â

2.Discuss how you would use the scientific method to prove that the one pet is NOT alive.
