Characteristics of Life with an emphasis on some special Features of Plants

Attributes of Living Organisms

  • Structure/organization, which arise from the basic properties of matter and energy.
  • Metabolism - "energy transfers".
  • Homeostasis - Maintain a livable internal environment.
  • Reproduction
  • Response to stimuli (e.g., temperature, injury, light, gravity, etc.).
  • Movement.
  • Blueprint of life is coded by DNA.
  • Mutations or changes in form are possible.
  • Adaptation to the environment.
  • Interdependence among organisms.
  • Growth.

Why do plants look like plants and not like something else?

Attributes of Plants

  • Autotrophs - obtain energy/building materials by process known as photosynthesis.
  • Sedentary (Plants don't move about).
  • Modular construction - repeating units due to localized areas of growth (meristems); plants grow at their tips and outward in girth.
  • Different modules perform specific functions Roots - anchorage and absorption of water and dissolved nutrients.
    • Leaves - absorption of light energy and atmospheric gases (carbon dioxide).
    • Reproductive structures: male, female, or both sexes (e.g., flowers, cones).
      • Structures that hold spores or seeds as they mature (e.g., sporangia, cones, fruits).
    • Stem - support leaves and reproductive structures, and the link between these modules and the root system.
  • Upper/lower surfaces of plants are highly branched. Maximize surface area for absorption of gas, light, nutrients and water.
  • Cellular level (i.e., eukaryotes/multicellular, chloroplasts, cell walls, and large vacuoles).
