7 Characteristics of Living Things
 Movement
 Growth & Development
 Sensitivity
 Reproduction
 Use of Energy
 Made of Cells
 Eliminate Waste
Movement
 Living things move
 They either move externally (like
animals) or parts of them can move
(like plants)
Growth and Development
 Living things grow
 Living things change as they age
A
seed growing into a plant
A small child growing into a human
A caterpillar growing into a butterfly
Sensitivity
Living things respond to the
environment around them
If something hurts they move, if
something is threatening they
move
Reproduction
 Living things must make more of
themselves
 Can be done by
Creating
a seed like a plant
Creating a baby like animals
Creating a duplicate like bacteria
Use of Energy
 All living things need energy to
function
 They will either make their own
energy (plants, some bacteria) or
they will have to consume
something to get that energy
(animals)
Made of Cells
Living things are made up of
cells
This could mean one cell, or
many cells
Eliminate Waste
The cells of all living things
produce waste
Living things must be able to get
rid of this waste in order to
survive
