|
Active transport
|
|
Diffusion of water is where the water....
|
moves toward the area of low concentration
|
|
How does reproduction relate to heridity?
|
Offspring inherit copies of their parents DNA
|
|
Define Heridity
|
passing of characteristics from parents to offspring
|

consumer
|
|
Why are decomposer catagorized as consumers?
|
the must obtain food they need from other organisms. They cannot produce their own food.
|
|
Why are most cells 70 percent water?
|
most chemical reactions that occur in cells depend on the presence of water.
|
|

|
Both processes release the energy stored in food.
|
|
How are respiration and fermentation different?
