Question

which characteristic of life best describes the life cycle of a frog?
○ having cells
○ using energy
○ responding to the environment
○ growing and developing

Explanation:

The life cycle of a frog involves stages from egg to tadpole to adult frog, which includes physical changes and progression in form and function. "Growing and developing" directly relates to this process of change over the life cycle. "Having cells" is a basic characteristic but not specific to the life cycle. "Using energy" is about metabolism, not the life cycle stages. "Responding to the environment" is about reactions to stimuli, not growth/development over time.

Answer:

D. growing and developing
