This describes an abiotic factor.
What are non-living things? (temperature, rocks, soil).
This is the type of dispersion that schools of fish or prides of lions exhibit.
What is clumped dispersion?
This is a subatomic particle with no charge.
What is a neutron?

What is guanine?
An organism that does not make its own food.
What is a heterotroph?
This is the number of organisms that a specific environment can support.
What is carrying capacity?

What is respiration?
The amount of years 2 half lives would be if one half life was 10 years. (For extra points, what percent of the original isotope would remain after 2 half-lives?)
What is 20 years? (25%)
What is protein synthesis?
This describes when there is a blend between the two phenotypes in a heterozygous organism.

This is the primary limiting factor if there was too many fish a pond.
What is space?
This is the type of population pyramid that is wide at the base and narrow at the top.
What is rapid growth?
This is the movement of water through a selectively-permeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
DAILY DOUBLE
This is a type of prokaryote.
What is bacteria?
This is what the backbone of DNA is made of.
What is sugar and phosphate?
This is a group of ecosystems that share the same climate and have similar types of communities.
What is a biome?
The type of succession that starts after a natural disaster like a wildfire.
What is secondary succession?
This type of solution has a lower concentration of solute outside than inside the cell.
What is a hypotonic solution?
This is the difference between mitosis and meiosis product cells.
What is diploid (mitosis) vs haploid (meiosis).
This is the percent that the offspring will have freckles, if the appearance of freckles is dominant, and one parent is homozygous recessive and the other homozygous dominant.
What is 100%?
