Variety of Living Things

Abstract

Next time you are walking out of doors, look at the plants and animals around you. Even in the towns you will see trees, shrubs, grass, moss, a few flowers, birds, dogs, cats, humans and occasionally horses. If you search, you may find butterflies, moths, bees, flies, earwigs, spiders, earthworms and snails. We call all these living things organisms. All around you are millions more organisms too small for you to see. We make use of many organisms throughout our daily lives: we could not live without them.
