THE WIDE VARIETY OF LIVING THINGS

OK!Let me count how many living things!
5…10…
There are at least 10 living things just at a corner of a park!
Oh! I can’t imagine how Oh! I can’t imagine how many kinds of living many kinds of living things in the world!things in the world!

Let me tell you the answer.
Scientists estimate that Scientists estimate that there are 4 million to 12 there are 4 million to 12
million kinds of living million kinds of living things on Earth. things on Earth.

WOW! However, I have a question.
Why is the total number Why is the total number of kinds of living things on of kinds of living things on
Earth only an estimate?Earth only an estimate?

It is because some living It is because some living things cannot be seen things cannot be seen
directly and some of them directly and some of them live in the deep sea or live in the deep sea or hide themselves from hide themselves from human. So the exact human. So the exact
number remains unknown.number remains unknown.

THE WIDE VARIETY OF LIVING THINGS
These living things differ in:

size
body forms body structure

Can you point out the habitats
mentioned in the video?

IN THE FOREST
12
some plants climb on tree trunks
reach for more sunlight

IN THE GRASSLAND
13
antelopes run fast
escape from predators

IN THE DESERT
14
cacti store a lot of water
survive in dry environment
![Page 15: S.1 Integrated Science Diversity of Living Things](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e5f0f1a28abd01c8b4580/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
IN THE FRESHWATER STREAM
15
webbed feetfrogs have webbed feet
swim in water
![Page 16: S.1 Integrated Science Diversity of Living Things](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e5f0f1a28abd01c8b4580/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
IN THE OCEAN
16
dolphins have a streamlined body
swim with little water resistance

IN THE POLAR REGION
17
seals have a thick layer
of fat under skin
keep warm in coldenvironment

RECALLING YOUR MEMORY
Worksheet of 2.2 Observing Living Things Question of finding differences between two
tortoises Answers included
Size Weight Pattern Colour Etc.
Those differences are called variations23
![Page 24: S.1 Integrated Science Diversity of Living Things](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e5f0f1a28abd01c8b4580/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
VARIATIONS
The differences among the individuals of the same kind of living things
24
![Page 25: S.1 Integrated Science Diversity of Living Things](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e5f0f1a28abd01c8b4580/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
VARIATIONS Continuous
Have a range of intermediate between two extremes.
E.g. Height
Discontinuous Have no intermediates. Either have the characteristic or don’t. E.g. Blood type
25

CLASSROOM ACTIVITY 2.4
Variations within humans Can you roll your tongue? Do you have free or attached earlobes? Can you bend your thumb back? Measure your hand-span in cm. Draw a bar chart to show the distribution.

WHAT SHOULD WE LEARN FROM VARIATIONS?
Not bad or good Everyone has his/ her own characteristics Respect and accept each other

SUMMARY
Scientist estimate (估計 ) 4 millions to 12 millions kinds of living things on Earth
They are different in size, body form and body structure
There are many habitats (生境 ) in the world where living things are living in Desert (沙漠 ) Ocean ( 海洋 ) Forest ( 森林 ) Polar region (極地 ) Etc.
Living things adapt (適應 ) the habitats by their body features and behaviours

SUMMARY
Variations (差異 ) exist among the individuals of the same kind of living things.
Continuous variations ( 連續差異 ) Height Weight
Discontinuous variations ( 不連續差異 ) Skin colour Blood type
We should respect (尊重 ) and accept (接納 ) everyone.
