Though other types of life may share some of these characteristics, the set of characteristics as a whole provide a distinction from the other kingdoms. The set of characteristics provided by Audesirk and Audesirk are: 1  Animals are multicellular.2  Animals are heterotrophic, obtaining their energy by consuming energy-releasing food substances. 3  Animals typically reproduce sexually. 4  Animals are made up of cells that do not have cell walls.he set of characteristics provided by Audesirk and Audesirk are: 1  Animals are multicellular. 2  Animals are heterotrophic, obtaining their energy by consuming energy-releasing food substances. 3  Animals typically reproduce sexually. 4  Animals are made up of cells that do not have cell walls.
The activity series is a useful guide for predicting the products of metal displacement reactions. For example, placing a strip of zinc metal in a copper(II) sulfate solution will produce metallic copper and zinc sulfate, since zinc is above copper on the series.op-ranked metals displace the ions of metals lower in the series from solution. A free-energy based series is used in this tutorial to show how and why active metals displace less active ones from solution.
This led to the assembly of an Activity Based Physics Suite that includes this textbook. The Physics Suite also includes materials that can be combined in different ways to meet the needs of instructors working in vastly different learning environments. The Interactive Lecture Demonstration Series is designed primarily for use in lecture sessions. Other Suite materials can be used in laboratory settings including the Workshop Physics Activity Guide, the Real Time Physics Laboratory modules, and Physics by Inquiry.
