balling4days:

it says all living things eat for energy but plants dont and they are living

Allison:

Ohh

balling4days:

idk about individuals evolve over time

balling4days:

and some living things are single cellular

balling4days:

all take in convert and expel energy

balling4days:

that should be it but lets see what smokey says

SmokeyBrown:

A few of these are currently in the wrong category. I agree with the suggestions put forth by balling4days. I would also add that there are living things composed of a single cell, like bacteria, so not all living things are multi-cellular. Also, while populations evolve over time, the life span of an individual is too short for evolution to occur--at least in a genetic sense--so the statement "Individuals evolve over time" would not be accurate; although most living things do grow and change during their life span, that is not the same as "evolution" in this context. Not all living things need other individuals in order to reproduce; some living things can reproduce asexually, for example, like worms and sponges, not to mention many single-celled bacteria. And on the other side of things: All living things do respond to the environment (I think that is one of the requirements of being "a living thing") And all living things take in, convert, and expel energy, in order to support the processes involved in being alive.

SmokeyBrown:

Apologies, didn't see all of balling4days responses. Looking over them now, I would agree with all of there suggestions :)
