  • Photosynthesis - It is the chemical reaction by which green plants use water, carbon dioxide and light from Sun to make glucose
  • Producers - organisms that make glucose during photosynthesis.
  • Producers - use most of the energy
  • Consumers - all other organisms in an ecosystem
  • Consumers - eat plants or other organisms to obtain their energy
  • Food chain - producer > consumer > decomposer
  • Food chain starts with producers
  • Decomposers - they break down remains of dead organisms
  • Decomposers - include worms, bacteria, fungi and some other insects.
  • Energy Pyramid Show - it takes a large number of a producers to support a small number of primary consumers.
  • Living things is also called Biotic
  • Non-living things is also called Abiotic
  • The other name of producers is Autotroph
  • The other name of consumers is Heterotroph
  • The other name of the composer is Saprotroph
  • Herbivore - an organisms that eats plants
  • Omnivore - an organisms that eats plants and meats
  • Carnivore - an organisms that eats meat
  • Cell division is a process by which a cell divides into two new cells
  •   Cells need to divide to grow by producing more cells and to repair of the damaged tissue
  • The original cell is called the parent cell
  • The two new cells are called daughter cells
  • Daughter cell have the same kind and number of chromosome as the original cell
  • Many organisms, especially unicellular organisms, reproduced by means of cell division called asexual reproduction
  • Before the cell division occurs, the cell replicates all of its dna
  • DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic Acid
  • RNA stands for Ribonucleic Acid
  • Every organism has its own specific number of chromosome
  • Human have 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs, the diploid is 46 and the haploid is the 9 pairs
  • Mitosis - one body cells undergo a cell division it is also called as somatic cells
  • Meiosis - when sex cells undergo a cell division it is also called as gametes
  • Cell cycle - series of events cells go through as they grow and divide
  • PMAT stands for prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
  • Prophase - phase of chromosomes condensation
  • Metaphase - phase of alignment
  • Anaphase - phase of separation
  • Telophase - phase of nuclear formation
  • Prophase - nuclear envelope breaks down
  • Metaphase - chromosomes migrate randomly and line up toward the equator
  • Anaphase - sister chromatids separate and move towards the opposite ends
