We can use the word RINGER to memorize the characteristic of living things.
Respiration - the ability to breathe and respire.
Irritability - the ability to detect and react to stimulus
Nutrition - taking in nutrients (eg. Food) for energy to growth, repair etc
Growth - the permanent increase in size and mass
Excretion - to get rid of toxic, waste or excess materials
Reproduction - to make more of that organism.
In addition, there is also movement, which is an action which causes a change in place or position.
Only the organisms with these characteristics are categorized as living things.
<span>This is the condition under which he would classify them as belonging to different species - the two salamanders cannot mate to produce a fertile offspring. If these two lizards belonged to the same species, they would normally be able to breed and give birth to a fertile new "child." However, given that they are not of the same species, they cannot do such a thing, which is why this scientist classified them that way.</span>
Answer:
Until recent history,extinctions have always happened gradually and on a small scale.
Explanation:
Extinction occur when environmental factors like natural disaster,habitat fragmentation,over exploitation,global change don't favor the survival of species thus gradually leads to extinction of species.
Some times human activity becomes the major problem for extinction.More over,poor reproduction,decline in population number and genetic inbreeding also leads to extinction.
99% of all species that exist on earth become disappeared.
Evolution leas to speciation which leas to formation of new species but species become extinct when they are unable to survive against competition.
