200
We Humans and Animals get our energy from the foods we eat whereas Plants get their energy from this
What is ultimately from the Sun
200
A rock may be able to change depending on its environment but explain why it's not alive
Because the rock didn't sense the change and respond. It was physical force that changed the rock

With so many reproduction methods, we can expect to have many outcomes. Why might a group of animals have many offspring vs why other groups have just a few.
We can assume that the animals having many offspring live more dangerous lives compared to the animals that just have a few

What is the backbone of the DNA
300
This process uses the energy from the sun along with two other "ingredients" to produce "food"
for $300 extra points name the two other ingredients
What is Photosynthesis
for extra 300 points, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O)
