- 24. Organisms of the same type that are capable of breeding with one another
- 25. The diversity of species in a region and interactions that sustain them
- 28. A substance that can neither be broken down nor converted to different substances by ordinary chemical means.
- 30. An explanation that is thought out and produced by using the scientific method
- 32. water, glucose, DNA
- 34. The act of knowing or recording something using your senses.
- 35. A single celled organism. Unlike a multicellular, they are only consisted of one singular cell
- 38. Principle that implies that all events can be traced to natural causes that are potentially within our ability to comprehend
- 39. The maintenance of fairly constant conditions within an organism’s body. This includes things like temperature and balance of fluids.
- 43. Process that plants and some unicellular organisms use to store energy by capturing the energy of the sunlight directly and storing it in energy-rich molecules like sugars
- 44. All the variables not being tested remain constant and are then compared with the experimental situation
- 45. A thin casing around the cytoplasm of the cell
- 47. A living thing made up of one or more cells and able to carry on the activities of life.
- 50. Complex models that have a framework of carbon that has some hydrogen bond
- 53. A statement based on experimental measurements and observations
- 54. Organisms that cannot photosynthesize such as fungi or animals that acquire energy prepackaged into the molecules of other bodies of other organisms
- 55. A procedure carried out under controlled conditions in order to discover an unknown effect or law, to test or establish a hypothesis
Down
- 1. This theory states that the cell is the basic unit of life.
- 2. A group of individuals of the same species living and interbreeding within a given area
- 3. A group of six interrelated operations, observation, question, hypothesis, experiment, analysis and conclusion
- 4. The ability to do work, such as carrying
- 5. Something you say or write in order to ask or wonder something
- 7. A system for naming species. Each organism is assigned a genus and a species. The genus is always capitalized but the species name is not
- 8. Small structures specialized to carry out specific functions such as moving the cell, obtaining energy or synthesizing large molecules.
- 11. A membrane-enclosed sac containing the cell’s genetic material and controls the activities of the cell
- 12. Process by which organisms with specific traits that help them cope with the rigors of their environment reproduce more successfully than others that lack these traits
- 15. Made from a hypothesis, typically expressed in an “If - then” format
- 16. feeders)
- 20. The process of generating hypotheses about how a specific experiment or observation will turn out based on a well supported generalization such as a new theory
- 21. Structures made from the combination of similar cells in multicellular organism
- 23. A combination of atoms. For example, water molecule is a combination of hydrogen and oxygen atoms.
- 26. Units of heredity that are transferred from a parent to child and determines the physical characteristics of the offspring
- 27. A supposition, based on previous observation, that is offered as an answer to the question and a natural explanation for the observed phenomenon.
- 29. Is a DNA molecule, is inside every cell. It contains genetic material that is transferred from parent to its offspring
- 31. The process of creating a generalization as a result of making many observations that support it, and none that contradict it
- 33. The smallest unit of life. Makes up all living organisms and tissues
- 36. The hereditary information of all known forms of life is contained within the type of molecule called DNA. The cell's genetic blueprint or molecular instruction manual, a guide to the construction and the operation of its body.
- 37. a chemical reactions, growing leaves in the spring for contracting a muscle
- 40. “Self feeders” (produces its own food)
