Are you a Survivor?

• Someone give a summary about
• Hunger Games

3

• What does it take to survive? Could you do it?

Work with a partner to make a list. What would
you take on a survivor trip?
4
What do other living organisms need to survive?
5
Survival Needs

1. Energy (food)
2. Shelter
3. Space
4. Soil
5. Climate/weather
6. Mates

Living vs. Nonliving

• We are surrounded by living and non-living
  things.
• A cat playing with a toy is obviously living.
• A pigeon flying from a tree both tree and
  pigeon are living

7
So, what are the Characteristics of living
things again?
8
The Characteristics of Life
All living things.
no matter how different from each other they may
be.
.share a set of common characteristics.
9
Living things
.are made up of units called cells.
.reproduce.
10
Living things
.are based on a universal genetic code called
DNA.
.grow and develop.
.use energy.
11
Living things
.respond to their environment (stimuli).
.maintain homeostasis.
12
Living things
.evolve, or change, over time.
13
Biotic
Bacteria
Yeast A unicellular fungi
All living factors within an environment.
14
Biotic

• What does the prefix bio mean?
• What are the non-living things called?
• Think of the prefix a

15
Abiotic
All non-living factors within an environment.
16
How a biotic organisms adapts to its abiotic
factors interacts with other living factors
determines its survival.
17
Abiotic Factors
Abiotic Factors help Biotic organisms meet their
needs for survival

• Ex
• Temperature
• Sunlight
• Water
• Oxygen
• Carbon dioxide
• Soil
• Nutrients
• Space

18
Abiotic Factors

• Sunlight
• Is there a lot or a little in this environment?
• TemperatureIs it hot or cold?

How might this affect the organisms that live
here?
19
Light and Temperature

• What do you notice about the light?

• Could you survive where these musk ox do?

20
Water

• Necessary for all life (as we know it).
• How does the amount of water affect an ecosystem?

21
Space

• Every living organism needs room to find food,
  find a mate, find shelter and more!

22
Soil

• How does soil play a part in an ecosystem?

23
What is nonliving in this picture?
24
You can use a venn diagram to show the
similarities and differences between ideas.
Which circle is biotic and which is
abiotic? What could you write in the center?
25
Identify the Biotic and Abiotic factors in your
venn diagram
Biotic Abiotic
Biotic and abiotic factors combine to create a
system (ecosystem)
