biology

3. The removal of metabolic waste products from the organism.
5. and Development: Increase in size and complexity of an organism following genetic instructions.
7. (Regulation): Maintaining internal conditions (homeostasis) to keep the organism stable.
10. Chemical reactions in cells that break down nutrient molecules to release energy.
11. The intake of materials for energy, growth, and development (e.g., photosynthesis in plants, ingestion in animals).
12. is the process where plants convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight.
16. The ability of an organism or part of it to change position or place.
17. All the chemical reactions that occur within living cells, including respiration and synthesis.
18. The basic structural and functional unit of all living organisms.

1. The process of producing new individuals of the same kind.
2. Passing genetic information to offspring to produce new individuals.
4. Organisms that make their own food (e.g., plants via photosynthesis).
6. A permanent increase in size and dry mass by cell division or enlargement.
8. The ability to detect and respond to stimuli in the environment.
9. Organisms that obtain food by consuming other organisms.
13. Any living thing that carries out life processes.
14. The regulation of internal conditions to maintain a stable environment.
15. Changes in the environment that organisms respond to (e.g., light, temperature).
