Part 2: Using the completed data table, answer the following questions:
- What is common among all samples?
- What is common among organisms from samples 1, 9, and 10?
- What is common between the circulatory system of organisms from samples 5, 6, and 7, but different in organisms from sample 4?
- What is common in the respiration system of organisms from samples 2 and 4?
- What gas is delivered to the respiratory system of organisms from samples 1, 9, and 10? Why?
- Which organisms are producers?
- Which organisms are decomposers?
