10. Organism - ANSWER ✔ An individual living creature
11. Order - ANSWER ✔ is the taxonomic rank used in the
classification of organisms Example: Sun Flower- Seeds and
Leaves
12. evolutionary adaptation - ANSWER ✔ Is smaller genetic
changes that allow for better survival. (Cold Climate- Animal
grows more Fur)
13. regulation - ANSWER ✔ Where optimal levels must be
maintained to achieve homeostasis. When levels are not optimal
the organism needs a regulatory process. ( Shivering when cold-
Shivering creates heat)
14. Energy Processing - ANSWER ✔ Biochemical reactions
that produce energy. The sum of those biochemical reactions are
metabolism. Living organisms need energy= ATP. Plant traps light
for photosynthesis
15. Metabolism - ANSWER ✔ The sum of biochemical
reactions
, 16. Growth and Development - ANSWER ✔ All living things

26. Vegetable reproduction - ANSWER ✔ a form of asexual
reproduction in which offspring grow from a part of a parent plant.
( Strawberry plants)

ecosystems, communities, populations, organisms, organs and
organ systems, tissues, cells, macromolucules , molecules, atom
