Biodiversity

Back (Answer)

Number of different species that leave in an area

#3
Front (Question)

Sustainable resource

Back (Answer)

Is produces as rapidly as it is removed from the environment so that it does not run out

Network of food chaind

#6
Front (Question)

Producer

Back (Answer)

An organism that makes its own nutrients usually using energy from the sun through photosynthesis

#7

#8

Back (Answer)

Animal that gets its energy form feeding on plants

#9

#12
Front (Question)

Population

Back (Answer)

A group of organisms is one species living in the same are at the same time

#13
Front (Question)

Community

Back (Answer)

All of the population of different species in an ecosystem

#14
Front (Question)

Ecosystem

Back (Answer)

A unit containing the community of organisms and their environment interacting together

#15
Front (Question)

Variation

Back (Answer)

Differences between individuals within the same species

#16
Front (Question)

Continuous variation

Back (Answer)

Results in a range of phenotypes between two extremes eg body mass and body length

#17
Front (Question)

Discontinues variation

Back (Answer)

Limited number of phenotypes with no intermediated eg ABO bliss groups seed shape in pees

#18
Front (Question)

Mutation

Back (Answer)

Genetic change and it is a random change in the base sequence of DNA

#19
Front (Question)

Adaptive feature

Back (Answer)

Is an inherited feature that helps and organism to survive and reproduce in its environment

#20
Front (Question)

Natural selection

Back (Answer)

Their is genetic variation within a population these organisms reproduce and their offspring struggle for resources and survival, the ones that do survive reproduce and pass on the useful alleles to the next generation

#21
Front (Question)

Selective breeding

Back (Answer)

Human identify organisms with desirable features and they breed them together then not all the offspring show the desirable feature so they breed together the off spring that do till they have made a whole new breed

#22
Front (Question)

Adaption

Back (Answer)

Is the the process that results from natural selection by which populations become more suited to their environment over many generations

#23
Front (Question)

Chromosome

Back (Answer)

Made form dna which contain genetic information in the form of genes

#24
Front (Question)

Gene

Back (Answer)

Length of dna which codes for a protein
