Surrounds the outside of ALL cells
What is a Cell or Plasma Membrane?
the biological process by which new individual organisms – "offspring" – are produced from their "parent" or parents
What is Reproduction?
The process by which a species becomes fitted to its environment; it is the result of natural selection's acting upon heritable variation over several generations.
What is Adaptation?
Single-celled microorganisms that can exist either as independent (free-living) organisms or as parasites (dependent on another organism for life).
What is Bacteria?
the change in heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations
What is Evolution?
Nonliving layer.

What are Analogous Structures?
The system of nomenclature in which two terms are used to denote a species of living organism, the first one indicating the genus and the second the specific epithet.
What is a Binomial Nomenclature?
the study of the relationships among living organisms, including humans, and their physical environment

What is a Punnett Square?
Process that results in the adaptation of an organism to its environment by means of selectively reproducing changes in its genotype, or genetic constitution.
What is Natural Selection?
The science of naming, defining (circumscribing) and classifying groups of biological organisms on the basis of shared characteristics.
What is Taxonomy?
I said, "that an organism experiencing such a modification can transmit such a character to its offspring"
