Cells
This lacks a membrane-bound nucleus
Prokaryote cell
The evolution of a quantity over time
Growth curve
A process in which parent cells divide into two or more daughter cells
Cell division
When organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring
Natural selection
This is the purpose of variables
This causes a noticeable change in an output or other measure of a type of system
Limiting factor
Carries genetic instructions
DNA
These are preserved remains, impression, or trace of any once-living thing from the past
Fossils
The type of data expressing amount, quantity, or range
Quanitative
This is the powerhouse of the cell
Mitochondria
Process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time
Ecological succession
DNA and RNA are examples of
nucleic acids
The interactions between organisms or species in which both the organisms or species are harmed
Competition
Being logical or factually sound
Validity
Organelles
A change by which an organism or species becomes better suited to its environment
Adaptation
A germ cell undergoes two fissions, resulting in the production of four gametes
This is the difference in DNA sequences between individuals within a population
Genetic variation
The system of ideas intended to explain something
Theory
This separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment
Plasma membrane
The maximum population size of the species that the environment can sustain indefinitely
This is when generic cells change into specific cells meant to do certain tasks within the body
Cell specialization
The change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations
Evolution
The variable that is changed or controlled in an experiment
