Photosynthesis

The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Cellular Respiration

The metabolic processes in cells that convert biochemical energy from nutrients into ATP, and release waste products.

Mitosis

A type of cell division that results in two daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent nucleus.

Ecosystem

A community of living organisms and their physical environment interacting as a system.

Natural Selection

The process by which organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring.

Osmosis

The movement of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration.

Atomic Number

The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which determines the chemical properties of an element.

pH Scale

A logarithmic scale used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

Biomes

Large geographic biotic units, a major community of plants and animals with similar life forms and environmental conditions.

Chlorophyll

A green pigment found in plants that is crucial for photosynthesis, allowing plants to absorb energy from light.
