100

This is when a sperm and egg cell join together.

What is fertilization?

100

A seed needs these three things to grow.

What are soil, sunlight, and water?
100

These are behaviors that don't need to be learned.

What are "instincts"?

100

This is when an animal goes through a major body change as they grow.

What is metamorphosis?

100

These will determine the traits that offspring will show.

What is an allele?

200

One benefit of this type of reproduction is that genetic variation occurs.

What is sexual reproduction?
200
Buzz, Buzz! The process of transferring this from male reproductive structures to female reproduction structures in plants is called this.

What is pollen and pollination?

200
Animals may display this threatening behavior to establish or maintain their territory.

What is aggression?

200

This provides all the nutrients that a growing embryo needs before birth.

What is an egg?

200

Auxin is an example of this, which speeds up or slows down how fast a plant can grow in response to light.

What is a hormone?

300

This is when an offspring has a mixture of two different alleles (i.e. Red Flowers and White Flowers make Pink Flowers)

What is Incomplete Dominance?

300

This is a way for a plant to reproduce sexually, even though they themselves cannot move.

What is through seed dispersal? (A.K.A.: Animals, the wind, etc.)

300

Because they often produce fewer offspring at a time, this occurs to ensure the offspring can survive.

What is parental investment?

300

This explains how a plant can identify when their are changes in the seasons.

What is photoperiodism?

300

In this thing, capital letters show dominant alleles and lowercase letters show recessive alleles.

What is a Punnett Square?

400
This is when both alleles are shown, but not fully.

What is Codominance?

400

A female cone is sticky because it wants to do this.

What is "catch pollen from a male cone"?

400
This is a chemical released by animals to attract mates, particularly through smell. (Humans often do this through using perfume or cologne. Remember: Body odor is not attractive, wear deodorant!)

What is a pheromone?

400

As winter draws near, trees will have their leaves change color and then fall. This is an example of them preparing for this.

What is dormancy?
400

A herd protecting a pregnant female or a group of worker bees raising the youth are examples of this.

What are cooperative behaviors?

500
These are the two types of asexual reproduction.
What are Fragmentation and Budding?
500

This is how plants can grow asexually from a parent plant.

What is from the roots, leaves, or stems?

500

Benefits of this are could be to find new mates and increase genetic variation or even just finding new supplies of food and/or warmth.

What is migration?

500

These are some of the many forms of tropism. (Hint: There are 3 possible answers!)

What are: Thigmotropism (response to touch), Gravitropism (response to gravity), and Phototropism (response to light)?

500

Competition in plants may be seen by there being too many plants grown in an area, leading to this.

What is nutrient-poor soil?
