The Earth and Conditions for Life

1.1. The Earth and the conditions for life

Conditions for life:

  • Distance to the Sun Mild temperatures: (average 15℃) Water in a liquid state The solar energy reaches the Earth
  • Terrestrial atmosphere that protect us from dangerous radiations and provide us with the gases neccesary for life.
  • Presence of basic chemical elements

Earth's Layers

The Earth is formed by four layers:

  • Geosphere
  • Hydrosphere
  • Atmosphere
  • Biosphere

The Earth's different layers

The atmosphere A layer of gases surrounding the Earth

The hydrosphere All of the liquid water on the Earth

The biosphere All the living beings inhabiting the Earth

The geosphere The solid base made up of rocks and minerals

Composition of Life

  • Living beings are made up of small particles, called atoms.
  • Atoms join together by chemical bonds, forming complex compounds called molecules.

All living things are made of 20 chemical elements

A chemical element is a form of matter composed of atoms of the same type

We know 117 different type of atoms

  • All organisms are made of cells
  • Cells are able to perform the vital functions.
  • Every cell is the result of the division of a pre-existing cell

Cell Structure

3.1. The cell structure All cells have:

  • Cell membrane
  • Cytoplasm
  • Genetic material plasma membrane cytoplasm nucleic acid

Cell Membrane

Cell membrane or plasma membrane Thin layer that protects the cell. It regulates the exchange of substances with the outside. plasma membrane cytoplasm nucleic acid

Cytoplasm

Cytoplasm It is the viscous fluid that fills the inside of the cell and in which the cell organelles (small structures that perform specific functions) are found. plasma membrane cytoplasm nucleic acid

Genetic Material

Genetic material It is made up of DNA fibres, which contains all the information to control cell functions plasma membrane cytoplasm nucleic acid
