well-tested explanation for a range of phenomena, might be correct but it is not completely stated and can be changed more easily.
What is a theory?
100
Is the study of life divided in many fields that cover physiology, anatomy, origin and distribution and as well morphology.
What is Biology?
100
It is based on the ability to modify genetic code, one of its goals is to correct or replace damaged genetic information to avoid future diseases.
What is Biotechnology?

Where a person conducting the test or experiment only changes one variable at a time in order to isolate the results
What is a Controlled Experiment?
200
Logical explanation/interpretation based on what scientist already know

What is bias?
200
The capacity or way organisms keep their internal environment stable even if external conditions change dramatically.
What is Homeostasis?
200
To combine genetic codes with the correct and advance technology at computers to organize all data into a single "Tree of All Life" so it could be public information.
What is the goal of "Building the Tree of Life"?
