      Domain
      kingdom
      phylum
      class
      order
      family
      genus
      species
    • biological species concepts means that members of the same species can intervreed
    • biological species concept important to the scientists is because it gives them a snapshot of evolution of new species in many group if plants and animals
    • biodiversity is the variation of living organisms from different sources.
    • slaivary amylase - breaks down starches into simpler sugar
    • pepsin - break downs proteins
    • peptidase - breakdown proteins into amino acids
    • Mouth -start of mechanical digestion
    • Tongue - pushes the bolus into the Pharynx which is the passageway for air, food, and water.
    • food is then delivered to the esophagus.
    • Stomach- start of initial protein digestion.
    • Small Intestine - site for nutrient absorption and final digestion.
    • Large intestine - It absorbs water from the remaining undigested material
    • Maltase, lactase, sucrase -Breaks down sugars into simpler mlecules
    • Trypsin and Chymotripsin - Continue the breakdown of proteins
    • Amylase - Continues the breakdown of starches
    • Lipase - Aids in breaking down fats
    • biomass is the total mass if an organism in a food chain or a food web
    • food web is a complex interconnected group of food chain
    • oxygen-carbon dioxide shows interdependence between plants and animals for these important gases.
    • mitosis produces 2 diploid identical daughter cells
    • meiosis produces 4 haploid daughter cells
    • 4 spermatids are formed after spermatogenesis
    • 1 ootids and 3 polar bodies are formed after oogenesis
    • when plant photosynthesize, they use carbon dioxide and produces oxygen.
    • oxygen produced by plant in photosynthesis is used by animals to respire.
    • during respiration, plants use oxygen and produces carbon dioxide
    • animals take in oxygen from the atmosphere and give off carbon dioxide during respiration
    • nitrogen fixation - the process of combining nitrogen with hydrogen to form ammonia
