Things to think about: Study Hint: Write out the answers to each of these questions on notebook paper or on index cards. You can also draw pictures/diagrams on paper, and/or make your own Power Point slides, etc. to help you study. You should also review the study aides that we made in class.

Name and describe the stages in the life cycles of the following organisms— starting at ANY point in the life cycle: Butterfly Frog Grasshopper Dog Flowering plant 2. List and describe the major characteristics of each class of vertebrates: What physical features do all mammals have in common? Birds? Amphibians? Reptiles? Fish?
