3 Similarities-3 Differences
All Living Things have NEEDS
M
aterials-water, oxygen
E
nergy-food, sun (plants)
L
iving Space-somewhere to get materials and energy
Living Things have CHARACTERISITCS
O
rganized-cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism

How are living things organized?
Why do living things need to reproduce?
A brown chameleon moves into a tree and changes
color to green. What characteristic of living things in this
behavior?
The Cell Theory
All living things are made up of one or more cells
Cells carry out all basic life functions
All cells come from other cells
Francisco Redi
Believed in
spontaneous
generation
-living things (bacteria)
can come from non-living things.
Why did he think this?
Louis Pasteur
Disproved Redi’s theory of
spontaneous generation
Developed the process of
pasteurization

How does the theory of
spontaneous generation and
the cell theory disagree?
Explore the key characteristics of living things, including the need for materials, energy, and living space, as well as the organizational structure, growth, reproduction, and ability to respond to the environment. Dive into topics such as the Cell Theory, spontaneous generation theories by scientists like Francisco Redi and Louis Pasteur, and the importance of reproduction in living organisms.
