Living things share common characteristics like being made of cells, responding to the environment, and reproducing. Macromolecules in cells help them function, and unicellular and multicellular organisms differ in structure. The levels of organization in multicellular organisms are explained, along

Microbes require carbon for metabolic activities, with organisms categorized as heterotrophs or autotrophs based on their carbon source. In addition to carbon, macronutrients like nitrogen, phosphorous, sulfur, potassium, and magnesium are crucial for cell function. Growth factors such as amino acid

Microorganisms are classified based on their nutritional requirements into autotrophs and heterotrophs. Autotrophs can utilize inorganic nutrients or light for energy, while heterotrophs require organic compounds. They are further categorized into four groups: photoautotrophs, photoheterotrophs, che

Ecosystems are intricate units where living organisms interact with each other and the environment. They consist of biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living) components, interrelated in a chain of interactions. Biotic components include autotrophs, heterotrophs, and decomposers, while abiotic compone

Living things require energy to perform functions that keep them alive. This energy is obtained through food consumption, which contains chemical energy stored in molecules. Various processes such as decomposition and synthesis involve energy release and storage in living organisms. Heterotrophs obt

Interactions among living systems and their environment involve the movement of matter and energy. Energy flows through trophic levels, starting with primary producers like plants and autotrophs converting solar energy. It then progresses to primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consu

Protists are eukaryotes that cannot be classified as plants, animals, or fungi. They thrive in moist environments and showcase a remarkable diversity within the Kingdom Protista. From animal-like protozoa to plant-like autotrophs and fungus-like heterotrophs, this kingdom contains a wide array of un

During this lab exercise, a wide variety of protists were observed, showcasing the diverse characteristics and behaviors within this group. The classification of protists is continuously evolving, focusing on convenience rather than evolutionary relationships. From autotrophs to heterotrophs with an
