Biology - study of living thing, Reproduction - is the continuation/perpetuation of a species by asexual or sexual reproduction, Respiration - a cellular means of releasing energy from food aerobically or anaerobically, Growth - increasing in size and/ mass evident by an increase in cell number and differentiation, Excretion - removal of metabolic waste, Movement - the change in position in part or the whole organism, Sensitivity - ability to detect and respond to changes, Generic Name - is the first names of an organism belonging to a Genus, Specific Name - is the second name of an organism identifying its species, Kingdom - the largest grouping or widest classification of organism are divided into 5 groups e.g. “F.A.P.P.Ps.”, Phylum - the second largest classification of organisms are divided into groups “C.A.M.P.- A.C.E”, Crustacea, Arachnida, Insecta, Diplopoda, Chilopoda - are smaller divisions of a group called Arthropods , Prokaryotes - is a group with unicellular organisms having no organelles (cell parts bounded by a membrane), Eukaryotes - is a group of unicellular organisms with true nuclei, Fungi - is a group of multi cellular organisms that feed saprophytic (external digestion) on dead matter e.g. decomposer by forming a mycelium of hyphae over food material, Plants - is a group of multi cellular organisms that feed autotrophic (producing by photosynthesis), Animals - are complex multi cellular organisms that feed heterotrophic (consuming other organisms for food), Cnidaria - are jelly fish and anemone that have one entrance to its gut, Echinodermata - are sea urchins, star fish and sand dollars with calcareous bodies of five part symmetry , Arthropoda - is a group of invertebrates with an exoskeleton and jointed legs and divided into 5 smaller groups “Cr.A.I.D.Chil.”, Crustacea - are crabs, lobsters, woodlice and silver fish that breathe with gills, have antennae and have 4/more pairs of jointed appendages some being legs, Arachnida - have 2 body segments, 4 pairs of legs and breathe with gills called book lungs, Diplopods - - are millipedes that have many body segments with 2 pairs of legs per segment, Insecta - have 3 pairs of legs, 3 body segments and some have wingslegs, 3 body segments and some have wings, Aves - warm blooded animals covered with feathers, Amphibia - refers to animals that breathe through gills when juvenile and use lungs when adult, Reptiles - are animals that lay eggs with leathery shells, and bodies covered with dry scaly skin, Pisces - refers to animals that breathe through gills, have fins to swim and are covered with moist scales, Mammalia - warm blooded animals, covered with hair or fur and give birth to live young, Dichotomous Key - a device that uses pairs of descriptions to classify and identify organisms,
