Why Do Organisms Survive?
Inference 1, talks about how within populations of organisms there is a struggle to survive. There is struggle everywhere for every living thing; humans to animals. But mainly about animals, there are different types of them in the world that vary, but they all struggle with the same things.They can deal with limited resources, climate changes, destruction in habitat, over dose, predators, and limited mates. But trying to find a way that can work out well, is the main key for every living thing, but it doesn't always work out. When it does, it gives them ability to reproduce, cure diseases, and able to relocate

    Every time the deer would go catch a resource the number of deer increased and the number of resources decreased. This showed how as the population dies out the resources are given time to grow back. The predators where an important part of this lab. As the predators caught the deer they increased and the deer decreased and the resources increased. But ass the deer increased the predators decreased which caused a balanced cycle of life. The deer need resources and the predators need deer if the deer decrease so do the predators and the resources increase. If the recourses increase so do the deer and so do the predators. The deer’s and predator’s life depend on the resources.…

    Surviving and reproducing means that all living organisms must adjust to circumstances having to do with their environment. For an example, small birds need trees. “Trees are an important part of their environment because they are able to offer shade, insects for food and a natural safe place to hide from predators”, ("Adaptation", 2013). Tree branches also provided birds a nice place to design a nest where their young can grow up. Also another thing people do not realize is the fact that the blades of grass and small hair is extremely important to a bird’s environment because that is what they used to build the nest. If birds were unable to find a safe place to build nests it would be hard for their offspring to survive.…

    Why do you think any living animal wants to keep living, to keep going on? Why do living organisms try so hard to survive? The very idea of just thinking about why organisms and more specifically, humans go on living is bewildering. The survival instinct theory states that all organisms have biological tendencies that help them survive. This implies that all behaviors and actions are based on the survival of the individual organism. Therefore, based on science, I believe that everyone’s “whale” or motivation to keep going can be narrowed down to the natural instinct to survive. On a broader scale, however, this so-called survival can be anything from getting the weeks’ paycheck, to running out of a burning building. Survival doesn’t have to mean finding today’s meal or fending off an attacker. The bottom line is everyone has an internal desire to stay alive and survive.…

    Darwin’s theory of evolution covers different ideas or theories explaining human behavior. One belief of Darwin’s that I feel applies to all organisms is the “struggle for existence”. In the present time, resources are becoming scarce. They are either being exhausted or are depleting due to pollution. As humans we are doing our best to protect and preserve our resources, but there is only so much we can do. Especially with our population constantly growing. For humans and all other living organisms there are certain traits that are important and necessary for survival. These include adaptation, basic instincts, and the ability to recognize and meet basic needs. These traits are not only important in nature but are also important for survival in today’s society.…

    Adaptation is natural selection in actions (Anemone, 2011). Natural selection is when organisms with more favorable traits suited for their environment are able to reproduce and pass on their desirable traits (Anemone, 2011). There are two types of adaptations, biological adaptation and cultural adaptation. Biological adaptations have to do with our genetics and cultural adaptations are those made by physical objects such as housing, clothing, and tools.…

    Why Do Cells Divide?

    • 408 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Why must cells divide? To start it off, cells can't keep growing forever, so when they reach a certain size they will have to divide. Cells divide for four important reasons; reproduction, growth, repair, and replacement of damaged or worn out cells. Most cells divide at least once during their life cycle and some divide divide dozens of time times before they die. There are three types of cell division. They are binary fission, mitosis, and meiosis. When cell division is in the form of mitosis it is usually associated with cell growth, replacement, and repair. When the cell goes through meisosis it usually involves asexual reproduction. Both the process of mitosis and meiosis involve the duplication of the DNA and the splitting of the nucleus.…

    Life is defined as a characteristic that distinguishes that have signaling and self sustaining processes from those that don’t. If an organism can perform certain functions such as movement, respiration, sensitivity, growth, reproduction, excretion, and nutrition, it is classified as a living organism. Life began from the basic building block of all living things, called cells. All organisms derived from single celled organisms. Cells are the basic building blocks of life and are found in all living things. For example, a group of cells would form a tissue, a group of tissues would form an organ, a group of organs would form an organ system an a group of organ systems would form an organism.…
