scientific method
a state of balance among all the body systems needed to survive and function correctly
homeostasis
smallest unit of organism considered alive
cell
2 cells from different parent unite to form new, unique cell
sexual reproduction
1 parent cell makes offspring identical to itself
asexual reproduction
organisms can be unicellular or multicellular
made of cells
DNA is tested in a crime scene evidence to determine the source of the blood
based on universal genetic code
blood cells are differentiated from muscles cells
grow and develop
