symbiosis that is beneficial to both organisms involved

Diffusion of free water across a selectively permeable membrane.

What is the monomer of lipids?

Likes water

What kind of graph shows percents or parts of a whole?

well-established explanation based off of a series of facts

Biome with low temperatures and low rain

What is one of the requirements to be a living thing?

What is the second step in the scientific method?

What is NOT an obstacle plants had to overcome by living on land

type of angiosperm with one seed leaf, parallel veins in leaves, and flower parts in threes

What is NOT a property of water?

Which scientist invented the microscope?

Trophism in response to light

How many micrometers across are the microscopes under high power?

establishing an ecosystem where there was nothing

a phenomenon that is always true

interaction between 2 organisms where one benefits and the other neither benefits nor is harmed

trophism in response to touch

get bigger in size/ cell number

make more of the same kind (DNA)

non-living thing that affects an environment/ecosystem

What is the sixth step in the scientific method?

How many micrometers across are the microscopes under low power?

What process describes when water is added to break down?

What process describes when water is taken out to build?

flowering plants

maintain homeostasis and control cell activities

interaction between two different organisms living in close physical association

What is the monomer of protein?

a position or role taken by a kind of organism within its community

Type of plant that is advanced, supports itself, and has a vascular system

What is the monomer of nucleic acids?

what is homeostasis?

an organism that causes decay

nutrients are taken in and distributed

A cell that has a nucleus.

unobserved phenomenon that is thought to be true

a large naturally occurring community of flora and fauna occupying a major habitat

breakdown of nutrients to be released as chemical energy

Biome with high temperatures and low rainfall

a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment

an organism that must obtain energy to build its molecules by consuming other organisms

What elements make up nucleic acids?

Type of plant that is simple, can't support itself, small, close to water, no vascular system

A cell that does not have a nucleus.

Does not like water

establishing an ecosystem where there is soil
