an organism, either a green plant or bacterium, which is part of the first level of a food chain
The substance that is dissolved in a solution
each of two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei, and hence differ in relative atomic mass but not in chemical properties
the youngest layer is on top and the oldest on bottom, each layer being younger than the one beneath it and older than the one above it
repair and growth; a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth
the remains or impression of a prehistoric organism preserved in petrified form or as a mold or cast in rock
the process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed and diversified from earlier forms during the history of the earth
The role or function of an organism or species in an ecosystem

the state or process of a species, family, or larger group ceasing to exist; the species has vanished
a group of organisms belonging to the same species that live in a particular area. May be described by their size, density, or distribution
the chemical processes that occur within a living organism in order to maintain life
physical property; mass divided by volume
A widespread occurrence of an infectious disease in a community at a particular time
a subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen
the process of being broken down by wind, water, or other natural agents
reproduction; a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell, as in the production of gametes and plant spores
An infective agent that typically consists of a nucleic acid molecule in a protein coat, is too small to be seen by light microscopy, and is able to multiply only within the living cells of a host
