100
These particles have a negative charge.
What are electrons?
100
These are made up of C, H, and O and have a ratio of 1: 2: 1. Main source of energy for living things.
What are carbohydrates?
100
All organisms require this, so they must eat food.
What is energy?
100
In a solution, this is added and dissolved into another substance.

What is a dependent variable?
200
These are found within the nucleus of an atom.
What are protons and neutrons?
200
These are made of C, H, and O. Can be saturated or unsaturated. Used for energy storage.
What are lipids.
200
An organism maintains a specific set of conditions, such as pH, temperature, etc.
What is homeostasis?
200
This property of water allows cohesion and adhesion to take place.
