A living creature

What is an organism?

100

The living parts of an ecosystem. 

What are biotic factors?

100

maintaining stable internal conditions necessary for life

What is homeostasis?

100

This type of cell only exist as a unicelular organism, has no nucleus, and has suspended DNA. 

What is a prokaryote?

100

Any element of the internal or external environment that causes an imbalance in the internal conditions of a cell, an organ, an organ system or an organism.

What is a stimulus?

200

This includes the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere.  

What is the biosphere?

200

The nonliving parts of an ecosystem.

What are abiotic factors?

200

A response to a change in a system that amplifies the change. 

What is positive feedback?

200

This cell exist as both a unicelular or multicelular organism, has a nucleus, its DNA is in the nucleus, has organelles, and can be either animal or plant cell.

What is a eukaryote?

200

Detects the change in homeostasis.

What is the receptor?

300

A group of the same organisms that live together. 

What is a population?

300
A group of interactive parts that work together to perform a common function or complete a common goal. 

What is system?

300
A response to a change in a system that intends to revert the system back to homeostasis. 

What is negative feedback?

300

This type of cell has a vacuole, chloroplast, and a cell wall that makes it more rigid. 

What is a plant cell?

300

This it the normal level or ranges a system prefers or attempts to maintain. 

What is equilibrium or normal point?

400

Various different populations that live within the same ecosystems

What is a community?

400

These are the 4 types of models.

What are physical, visual, mathematic, and simulations?

400
This is an example of your body beginning to warm up. Your body feels the change in a condition and sends a message to your brain. Your brains decision is for your sweat glands to produce sweat in order to cool down your body back to its normal level. 

What is an example of negative feedback?

400

This type of cell is not very rigid. It can be a muscle cell, neuron, skin cell, and many others in an animal or human. 

What is a human cell?

400

This receives information from the receptor and causes the effector to take action to maintain homeostasis. 

What is the control center?

500
This includes all the living and nonliving things in a biome. 

What is an ecosystem?

500
A systems response to a change. 

What is feedback?

500

The is an example of someone giving birth. The baby's head pushes against the cervix and the brain stimulates the production of oxytocin. The oxytocin causes contraction in the uterus. This in turn causes the baby to push against the cervix more and create more contractions. 

What is an example of positive feedback?

500

Cell membrane, cell wall, nucleus, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, chloroplast, and the vacuole.

What are organelles?

500

This is the physical or chemical change or action that reverts the system back to homeostasis. 

What is an effector?
