Living things include both the visible world of animals and plants as well as the invisible world of bacteria and viruses. On a basic level, we can say that life is ordered. Organisms have an enormously complex organization. Life can also “work”. Living creatures can take in energy from the environment. This energy, in the form of food, is changed to maintain metabolic processes and for survival. Life grows and develops. This means more than just getting larger in size. Living organisms also have the ability to rebuild and repair themselves when injured. Life can reproduce. Life can only come from other living creatures. Life can respond. Think about the last time you accidentally stubbed your toe. Almost instantly, you moved back in pain. Finally, life can adapt and respond to the demands placed on it by the environment. There are three basic types of adaptations that can occur in higher organisms.
Reversible changes occur as a response to changes in the environment. Let's say you live near sea level and you travel to a mountainous area. You may begin to experience difficulty breathing and an increase in heart rate as a result of the change in height. These signs of sickness go away when you go back down to sea level.
Body- related changes happen as a result of prolonged changes in the environment. Using the previous example, if you were to stay in the mountainous area for a long time, you would notice that your heart rate would begin to slow down and you would begin to breath normally. These changes are also reversible. Genotypic changes (caused by genetic change) take place within the genetic make up of the organism and are not reversible. An example would be the development of resistance to bug-killing chemicals by insects and spiders.
Question: In what way is life organized?
A. Hard
B. Difficult
C. Complicated
D. Problematic

Everyday life: The life of Mongolian is punctuated by caring animals. A Mongolian nomadic family has five types of animals: horses and sheep for hot season and cows, camels and goats for cold season.
Several times during the year, according to the needs of livestock and pasture conditions, nomadic families move their yurts.
In summer, the nomadic family will favor a location near a river, to ensure water supply for the family and herds, and good pastures.
In winter, the priority is given to protection against the intense cold of Mongolian winter, and the family settles its "winter" camp sheltered from the wind in a small valley or at the edge of a forest.
The woman is very busy with the household, kitchen, 2 or 3 children, and milking the mares, cows... at least five times a day.
The husband watches the herds of yaks, horses, cows and sheep scattered on often significant surfaces and must gather them every night to protect them against the wolf attacks, frequent in Mongolia.
He also deals with equipment maintenance and repairs.
Ways of cooking: In traditional Mongolian cooking, seasoning was not used; although salt was there a long time and it is used it even in tea! Typically, they cook with a wok and most of the foods are either boiled or stir-fried.
Since a lot of livestock is raised in Mongolia, it is no mystery that Mongolian cuisine revolves around them. Sheep and goat are most popularly which are either grilled or boiled. Traditionally soup and dumplings used to be in all the courses of the meals, without which, it was regarded to be incomplete.
There are many types of crafts can be found in Mongolian culture: wooden sculptures, ger - nomadic dwelling, metalwork, embroidery art, leather crafting, art of jewelery.
The traditional masterpiece of Mongolian is the urtyn duu accompanied with the morin-khurr. Most famous Mongolian dance are: Jinai dance (milking dance), the Caihong dance (rainbow dance), the Zhongwan dance (bowl dance), the Kuaizi dance (chopsticks dance), and the Andai dance
There are lots of festival in Mongolia but these are the most well-known one: Tsagaan Sar (Lunar New Year); Khovsgol Ice Festival; Naadam Festival; Gongoriin Bombani Hural; Ölgii Eagle Festival.

Hello everyone, today our group will introduce the nomadic way of life in Mongolia. The life of Mongolian family depends on the healths of herds and is punctuated by caring for animals.
Traditionally, a Mongolian nomadic family has five types of animals: horses and sheep, cows / yaks, camels and goats.
Several times during the year, according to the needs of livestock and pasture conditions, nomadic families move their yurts.
In summer, the nomadic family will favor a location near a river, to ensure water supply for the family and herds, and good pastures.
In winter, the priority is given to protection against the intense cold of Mongolian winter, and the family settles its "winter" camp sheltered from the wind in a small valley or at the edge of a forest.
The woman is very busy with the household, kitchen, 2 or 3 children, and milking the mares, cows... at least five times a day.
The processing of dairy products (cream, yogurt, liquor, milk, cheese ...) takes a long time as well.
The husband watches the herds of yaks, horses, cows and sheep scattered on often significant surfaces and must gather them every night to protect them against the wolf attacks, frequent in Mongolia. He also deals with equipment maintenance and repairs.
