Living thingsjcostoyaThis document summarizes different types of living things. It discusses that all living things go through a life cycle of beginning, growing, reproducing, and dying. There are four main groups of living things: animals, plants, fungi, and microorganisms. Animals can move and eat other organisms, plants make their own food, fungi resemble plants but cannot make or move food, and microorganisms are tiny living things that require microscopes to be seen. The document provides examples and characteristics of different types within each group like vertebrates, invertebrates, mushrooms, molds, yeasts, and bacteria.

Types of organismsMr. MThere are three main types of organisms: producers, consumers, and decomposers. Producers like plants can produce their own food through photosynthesis. Consumers like animals obtain energy by consuming other organisms. Decomposers such as bacteria and fungi break down dead organic matter and cycle nutrients in the environment. Together these three groups participate in complex food webs that sustain life.
