Cell and evolution

What can organisms produce

Asexual and sexual reproduction

Organisms can be:

Autotrops and heterotroph

Meaning of ATP and its purpose

Adenosine triphosphate, a molecule that stores and transfers energy in cells, essential for metabolic processes.

What is homeostasis

Ability to maintain internal condition in response to environmental changes

What is photosynthesis

The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll. It converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

What are the functions of cells

Cells perform various functions including energy production, waste removal, reproduction, and maintaining homeostasis.

What is cell differentiation

The process by which a less specialized cell becomes a more specialized cell type, enabling the cell to perform specific functions in an organism.

Examples of cell specialization in multicellular organisms

include muscle cells for contraction, nerve cells for signal transmission, and blood cells for transport of oxygen and nutrients.

What are pokaryotes

Prokaryotes are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, such as bacteria and archaea. They reproduce asexually and are characterized by their simplicity and adaptability.

What are eukaryotes

Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells contain a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, including animals, plants, fungi, and protists. They are typically more complex than prokaryotes.

What is cell

the basic unit of life that makes up all living organisms.

Stimulus is characterized into

two categories: internal and external.
