Card Sort Activity Using the laminated cards provided at each group table, sort the terms into one of the categories listed on the colored cards. Discuss ideas with your group members…you must talk through each one! Compile your group ideas on the organizer provided…

What is a System? Think about the pen you may be holding. Does it have parts? Do they work together to do a job? Yes! A pen has the case, the tube that holds the ink, the ballpoint and it may even have an erasure if it contains erasable ink. If it clicks to open and close it will have a spring and a part to make the point go in and out. All of these parts work together so you can write with the pen. That makes it a system! So, a system is a group of parts that work together to perform a function. What is a function? The parts of a pen work together so you can write with it. That is its function. A function is the job a system performs.

Examples of Systems • What are the names of each part in this system and what function do they perform? • What would happen if the keyboard or mouse stopped working?

Examples of Systems • What are the names of each part in this system and what function do they perform? • What would happen if the engine stopped working?

Ticket out the Door- “Shout” Out • Think of your own example of something abiotic (non-living) that works together as a system. • What are the parts included in this system and what are their functions?

Levels of Organization Notes Please write TITLE of each slide and the green notes in each box on organizer

ATOMS • Smallest part of matter • NON-living

Molecules • 2 or more bonded atoms • Form compounds • NON-living

Macromolecule • Very large complex molecules (polymers) made of a bunch of smaller molecules that are the same (monomers. ) – Analogy If you have a pearl necklace. The individual pearls would be the monomer and the necklace would be the polymer. • All living things are made up of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids. • NON-living

Organelles • “Tiny organs” • Made of macromolecules • Non-living Ex: nucleus, mitochondria

Cell • Made of organelles • Basic unit of structure & function • LIVING Ex: plant cell, skin cell…

Tissue • The SIMILAR cells working together • Living Ex: muscle tissue, nerve tissue

Organs • SIMILAR tissues that work together • Living Ex: heart, stomach…

Organ Systems • Organs that work together for similar purpose • Living Ex: skeletal system, nervous system

Organism • Entire living things (organisms) • Usually made of systems • May be a single cell • Living Ex: human, dog

Population • Same organisms living together Ex: group of penguins

Community • Several populations living together • Populations interact Ex: penguins, polar bears

Ecosystem • A biotic (living) community and the abiotic (nonliving) features Ex: penguins, polar bears, temperature, & sun

Biome • Similar ecosystems on earth together Ex: arctic tundra

Biosphere • Whole living layer on Earth • Includes abiotic features http: //people. hofstra. edu/geotrans/eng/ch 8 en/conc 8 en/envisys. html
