A prokaryotic cell that can do photosynthesis
List, in order, the 7 common properties and processes all living organisms share
1) Order - (cells = basis of organization)
2) Reproduction - with their own kind
3) Growth and development - consistent growth and develop controlled by DNA
4) Energy processing - chem energy to power organism
5) Responce to the environment - respond to environment stimuli
6) Regulation - control internal environment with limits to sustain life
7) Evolutionary adaptations - evolve over generations
What is the biological organization from big to small?
1- Biosphere
2- Ecosystem
3- Community

10- Organelle
11- Molecule
What are the five bases of biology?
1- Novel properties emerge at each level of biological organization
2- Cells are the level at which the properties of life emerge
3- Structure relates to function (ex. cell shape)
4- Organisms interact with the environment, exchanging matter + energy
5- Evolution explains the unity and diversity of life

Aquatic = bacteria and algae (phytoplankton)
Who are consumers?
Anything that eats plants and organisms
Who are decomposers?
Those who recycle the matter (ex. fungi)
