Across
- 2. Organisms that eat only organisms other than plants
- 3. The sum total of all processes in an organism which break down chemicals to produce energy and simple chemical building blocks.
- 7. Special structures that allow living organisms to sense the conditions of their internal or external environment.
- 8. Naming an organism with its genus and species name
- 14. Law A theory that has been tested by and is consistent with generations of data
- 15. A hypothesis that has been tested with a significant amount of data
- 17. Reproduction that requires two organisms.
- 19. An abrubt and marked change in DNA of an organism compared to that of its parents.
- 24. Organisms that break down the dead remains of other organisms
- 25. The process by which green plants and some other organisms use the energy of sunlight and simple chemicals to produce their own food.
- 26. The process by which physical and biological characteristics are transmitted from the parents to the offspring
- 27. Organisms that eat both plants and other organisms
Down
- 1. Organisms that eat only plants
- 4. Living creatures that are to small to be seen with the naked eye
- 5. An educated guess that attempts to explain an observation or answer a question
- 6. The sum total of all processes in an organism which use energy and simple chemical building blocks to produce large chemicals and structures necessary for life
- 9. Reproduction accomplished by a single organism
- 10. Cell A cell with distinct, membrane-bounded organelles
- 11. Organisms that depend on other organisms for their food
- 12. The sum total of all processes in an organism which converts energy and matter from outside sources and use that energy and matter to sustain the organism's life functions
- 13. Organisms that produce their own food
- 16. The idea that long ago, very simple life forms spontaneously appeared through chemical reactions
- 18. Organisms that are able to make their own food
- 20. The science of classifying organisms
- 21. Cell A cell that has no distinct membrane-bounded organelles
- 22. Organisms that eat living producers and/or other consumers for food
- 23. A unit of one or more populations of individuals that can reproduce under normal conditions, produce fertile offspring, and are reproductively isolated from other such units
