| Define Metabolism | The sum of the total of the biochemical reactions occurring in an organism |
| How do photosynthetic organisms get energy? | Through photosynthesis turning sunlight into chemical energy |
| What happens during cellular respiration? | Organisms use chemical energy stored in the molecules |
| Define Reproduction | Reproduction is the process of making the next generation of organisms and it may be sexual or asexual |
| Why do organisms reproduce? | To make similar organisms |
| How do plants and animals reproduce? (Sexually or asexually) | Sexually |
| What is asexual reproduction? | When an organism splits in two and makes an exact copy of itself |
| What is sexual reproduction? | When two organisms use sperm and egg to make (a) similar organism(s) |

| What is growth? | The process of getting bigger (in mass) |
| What is development? | The process of going through the life cycle. (Embryonic, puberty) |
| Define response to Stimuli | Living things respond to Stimuli or changes in their environment |
| What is stimulus? | A signal that an organism responds to |
| What is a response (to Stimuli) | A reaction or change in action that is brought on by stimulus |
