What is Evolution?
The process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed and diversified from earlier forms during the history of the earth.
300
What is natural selection?

300
What is the occipital lobes function?
visual processing
300
What central theme describes the following: the action or process of making a copy of something, the production of offspring by a sexual or asexual process?
Reproduction
400
What is homozygous traits
Having identical alleles at corresponding chromosomal.
400
What do lipids do?
stores energy, regulates the body
400
What is passive transport?
The movement of biochemicals and other atomic or molecular substances across cell membranes. Unlike active transport, it does not require an input of chemical energy, being driven by the growth of entropy of the system.

How would you describe heredity?.
The passing on of physical or mental characteristics genetically from one generation to another
500
What is a heterozygous trait?
dissimilar alleles at corresponding chromosomal loci.

What is cellular respiration?
The set of the metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products.
