Reproduction Reproduction
(Uniparental) (Biparental)
e.g., mostly multicellular and
unicellular organisms
By Budding (Yeast, Hydra)
e.g., Regeneration (Planaria)
Fragmentation – Fungi and Filamentous
algae and protonema of mosses

,Non Defining Characteristics
z Growth + Reproduction → Mutually Inclusive Event → Unicellular
z Growth + Reproduction → Mutually Exclusive event → Multicellular
Note:
z Growth in plant is localised & indefinite (throughout life)
z Growth in animal is diffused and definite (up to a limit)
Important:
z Reproduction is not a characteristic feature of living e.g., mules, worker
bees and infertile human.
Irreversible change
z In living — Growth
Intrinsic (occurs due to increase protoplasm)

Defining Characteristics
(a) Metabolism → Catabolism + Anabolism. It mean some of all catabolic
and anabolic reactions in our body.
In vitro → Not a living thing but is a living reaction.
Metabolism is a characteristic feature of living things inside a cell.
(b) Cellular Organisation → Metabolic reaction inside the cell, it mean
cellular organization strictly require for metabolism to define the feature.
(c) Consciousness → The state of being aware of what is around you
and able to sense environment. Consciousness therefore, become the
defining property of living organism.

TAXONOMY AND SYSTEMATICS
z Identification: Correct description of organism.
z Nomenclature: Scientific naming → Binomial nomenclature given by
Linnaeus.
z Classification: Give a particular position of an organism in a particular taxa.
ICBN → International Code for Botanical Nomenclature.
ICZN → International Code for Zoological Nomenclature.

Taxonomic Arrangement
All categories together constitute the taxonomic hierarchy.
Each category referred to as a unit of classification, infact, represent a rank
and as commonly called as taxon (Pl. Taxa):
(i) Species: Group of individual with fundamental similarities e.g., nigrum,
tigris.
(ii) Genus: Group of closely related species e.g., Mangifera
(iii) Family: Group of less related genus e.g., Solanaceac
(iv) Order: The similar characteristics are less in number as compaired to
different genera. Assemblage of families which exhibit a few similar
characteristics e.g., Polymoniale.
(v) Class: Group of related orders e.g., Primata.
(vi) Phylum/Division: In division, related plant classes come in group but in
case of animal, related classes became a part of phylum e.g., Chordata.
(vii) Kingdom: Group of similar phylum or division e.g., Animalia and
Plantae.

specialised gardens e.g., Kew (England), Indian Botanical Garden,

(iii) Museum: Collection of preserved plants and animal specimens in
colleges for study purpose and reference.
(iv) Zoological Parks: A place where wild animal kept under human care
for learn about food habits and behaviour.
(v) Key: Keys are generally analytical in nature. Keys are based on
contrasting characters generally in a pair called couplet. Each statement
