Living Things Sorting Worksheet
Field notes
Living things need energy and carry out life processes such as growing and reproducing. Animals get energy by eating other organisms. Plants use sunlight to make food. Fungi, such as mushrooms and moulds, absorb nutrients from their surroundings. Fungi can also break down dead material and return nutrients to the environment. Bacteria are tiny living organisms; most can only be seen with a microscope. These clues help us sort organisms, but not every clue applies to every member of a group.
