This is known as the "Control Center" for the cell because it controls all cell activities
What is the nucleus
100
Process used when mating organisms to produce desired traits
What is Selective Breeding
100
Known as Fertilization, this type of reproduction is a result of the union of a sperm cell and an egg cell
What is Sexual Reproduction
100
This part of the environment  is composed of freshwater sources such as rivers, lakes, streams and groundwater
What is a watershed
100
Excessive amounts of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere has led to this phenomenon which is affecting Earth's weather patterns and ecosystems
What is Climate Change/ Global Warming
200
These organelle is the site for photosynthesis in autotrophs
What are chloroplasts
200
The chromosomes are made up of this type of molecule
What is DNA molecule
200

Organisms whose offspring are identical or uniform, are a result of this type of reproduction

What is asexual reproduction
200
These are the sources of chemicals in Rural runoff which create algal blooms that kill organisms in lakes and rivers.   
What are fertilizers and pesticides
200
This is the number one reason for Earth's declining biodiversity
What is habitat loss/ habitat destruction
300
This cell organelle is used to store extra water and food
What is a vacuole
300
"Super Cows" that produce unusually large amounts of milk and steer that produce extra meat are a result of this process
What is Selective Breeding
300
All offspring are unique with variations in their DNA are a result of this type of reproduction.
What is sexual reproduction(fertilization)
300
This is an organism introduced into a new ecosystem which disrupts and harms of native species
What is an invasive species
300

The cell is the basic unit of life

All organisms are made up of cells

New cells come from pre-existing cells

This is called_________

What is Cell Theory
400
This is a semipermeable tissue which controls what enters and exits the cell
What is the cell membrane
400
The idea that the organisms with the most adaptable traits will survive, reproduce and pass on their traits to their offspring
What is the Theory of Natural Selection
400
Budding, fission, cuttings and regeneration are all examples of this type of reproduction
What is asexual reproduction(vegetative propagation)
400
Humans have led to the decline of biodiversity on Earth.  To aid in increasing biodiversity, old ships are often sunken into the ocean to encourage species to inhabit it. This  is known as an:
What is Artificial Reef

The greatest amount of energy on the energy pyramid is located in this area
What is the base, bottom, autotrophs, producers

These 2 cell organelle are found in plant cells but not in animal cells
What are chloroplasts and cell walls
500
The finches of the Galapagos Islands developed traits such as beak shape that was most suitable to their ecosystem. This is a result of this process:
What Natural Selection
500
This type of reproduction is most likely to produce offspring that can adapt long term environmental changes
What is sexual reproduction

Commercial fishing has led to taking too much from our oceans without properly replacing it.  This process is known as_____________
What is Overharvesting
