Which property of life (e.g. homeostasis) is illustrated by each of the following examples: The Venus flytrap’s ability to close its trap rapidly after detecting the presence of an insect. __________________ A puffin eating fish and using the energy for swimming. __________________ The formation of tissue from cells and organs from tissues. _______________ The evolution of camouflage coloration in the katydid. ___________________ Thermoregulation in a polar bear. _______________________ Biologists study life at many different levels. Which level of life (e.g. population) is illustrated by: All the organisms living in Roosevelt Lake. __________________ All the Largemouth Bass living in Roosevelt Lake. ________________ Roosevelt Lake. __________________ One Largemouth Bass. ________________ An important aspect of any biological study is to communicate ideas clearly. Identify the following statements as observations (O), hypotheses (H), or predictions (P). _____ Tropical rain forests have high species diversity _____ Mesquite trees have thick, dry bark to prevent water loss in the desert. ______Large-billed parrots will eat large seeds and small-billed parrots will eat small seeds. ______ Social insects will help their relatives raise offspring rather than produce their own because they actually achieve higher indirect fitness by helping. ______ Many species of birds inhabit a single tree. Solution Venus fly trap :property of life : response to stimulus as the plant cannot absorb nitrogen from soil it depends on insects for nitrogen requirement and hence has sensitive hairs that detect the insect and close to trap the insect. A puffin eating fish and using the energy for swimming: Energy utilization or expenditure, organisms use the energy absorbed by them toperform various activities of life. Roosevelt Lake. _ lake ecosystem , where different organisms and their interactions can be studied. One Largemouth Bass. represents an organism in the ecosystem..
