This bone (also known as the breastbone), is a long flat bone located in the central part of the chest.
What is the Sternum?
200
This rule is responsible for electron degeneracy pressure in white dwarfs; fermions, but not bosons obey this rule that sets constraints on spin values of electrons in orbitals
What is the Pauli Exclusion Principle?

This is one of two bones that give structure to the forearm. This bone is located on the opposite side of the forearm from the thumb.
What is the Ulna?
300
Atoms with these values of protons plus neutrons in their nucleus may have stability; they are numbers of nucleons that can be arranged into nuclear shells with no nucleons left over
What are Magic Numbers?
300
Occurs when RuBisCo binds to O2 instead of CO2; decreased in plants that use C4 or CAM carbon fixation mechanisms
What is Photorespiration?
300
Molecules with a non-superimposable mirror image; can be separated through kinetic resolution
What are Chiral molecules?

This interpretation states that the wavefunction squared is the probability density; it is named after a Jewish physicist who also names a method of finding lattice energies along with Fritz Haber
What is the Born Interpretation of Quantum Physics?
400
It's a plant hormone that closes stomata during water stress and serves an opposing role to gibberellins
What is Abscisic Acid (ABA)?
400
A bimolecular one-step mechanism that involves nucleophilic substitution but does NOT involve carbocation rearrangement
