The ___________ is the basic unit of life
Cell
What is the correct order of organization?

B) A large number of offspring reproduce quickly.
C)extreme temperatures and wipe out entire colonies.
D) Offspring are genetic clones.
B) A large number of offspring reproduce quickly.
Organs and tissues that perform the same function is called _____________?
Organ system
What is the difference between a cell and a tissue?
cell is basic unit of life; tissue is group of cells that work as one

b) a butterfly or bee carries pollen from one plant to another, so they can reproduce
C) when spores begin to form and develop into a new plant.
A)part of a plant is broken or cut off, and grows into an identical new one.
