This is known as the basic unit of life.
What are cells?
The term for the genetic makeup of an organism
What is a genotype
The study of interactions among organisms and their environment
What is ecology?
The process by which species change over time.
What is evolution?
This system moves nutrients, hormones, oxygen and other gases to your body's organs, muscles and tissues, to use for energy, growth and repair.

What is the theory of common descent?
The role of these biological catalysts accelerate chemical reactions in living organisms by lowering the activation energy needed for a reaction to occur
