What is a vaccine and how does it help fight viruses?
Vaccines are dead or weakened version of a virus. It can make you sick, but it trains your body how to fight the virus.

Name the two methods in which vascular plants reproduce.
Seeds and spores
Fungi are eukaryotes. Define what a eukaryote is.
An organism that has a nucleus in its cells.
Explain the two ways protists can reproduce
They can divide (cell division) or they can reproduce sexually

What is a capsid?
The shell around a virus's genome

answer may vary
Plants with exposed seeds not inside a fruit.
Pine tree/pine cones
explain the process in which mold start to grow on bread
spore lans on bread
if the condition are right (warm/moist) then mold grows
Describe what Alternation of Generations is for protists.
Protists can alternate between haploids and diploids. Haploids reproduce sexually, diploids reproduce though division.
Why are antibiotics becoming weaker at fighting off bacteria?
bacteria can transfer immunity, some bacteria have extra armor, overusing antibiotics weakens antibiotics as a whole
