Students are in the lab studying some mystery specimen. The students are asked to determine if the specimens are living or not. The students have each made a list of what to look for in the specimens. Look at the lists each student has created to study the specimens. Which list do you think will most help the group figure out if the specimen is a living thing or not?
Student A’s list will be most helpful to determine if the specimen is living because it asks about being able to breathe and being made of cells.
Student B’s list will be most helpful to determine if the specimen is living because it asks about being made of cells and needing energy.
Students C’s list will be most helpful to determine if the specimen is living because it asks about having a brain and being made of cells.
All of the lists will be helpful to determine if the specimen is living because they all ask about movement and being made of cells.
