tremendous amount of evidence supporting the concept and patterns it describes
pattern Correct answer-refers to the general observations of repetition one sees within a
syste,
process Correct answer-mechanism, or way in which the pattern occurs
proximate Correct answer-refers to that which occurs in the short term

cells come from preexisting cells

issues
key points on hierarchy Correct answer--similarity between individuals within each level,
with respect to structural and functional complexity
-units of each level defines the next level
emergent property Correct answer-the collection of the units as 1 level takes on a trait
that is greater than the sum of its parts
hierarchy Correct answer-grouping of units of something into levels of groups
