The study of living beings and their environment in 6th grade science covers ecosystems, classification, life cycles, and organic matter. This comprehensive guide explores how organisms interact with their environment, develop through life stages, and participate in complex food webs.
• Living organisms establish vital relationships with both mineral elements and other living beings
• Classification systems help organize species based on shared characteristics and cellular structure
• Life cycles of both plants and animals follow distinct developmental stages
• Organic matter flows through ecosystems via primary producers, secondary producers, and decomposers
• Environmental components include both living and non-living elements that interact in complex ways
