Marine Biology is the scientific study of organisms that are dependent on water. Marine Biology is an interesting topic to many people because of the exotic animals you get to work with. A career in Marine Biology can be dangerous because of the wild animals‚ but at the same time it can be fun. It takes time‚ training‚ and intelligence to succeed in the career. In order to make it in this Biology field you must complete a college work in oceanography‚ marine biology‚ or conservation. You will

Peter Dang Mrs. Truesdell AP Biology Period 5 2 October 2013 CHAPTER 7 STUDY GUIDE AN OVERVIEW OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS Autotrophs are plants that can feed themselves by making their own food. Photo-autotrophs are organisms that produce organic molecules from inorganic molecules using the energy of light. Producers are when plants make their own organic molecules. A redox reaction is oxidation and reduction. Photosynthesis takes water and carbon dioxide to make glucose and oxygen. Cellular respiration

Is everything determined? Have I already been predetermined to write this two page response on a paper im hardly understanding but writing about anyway? Did God already know that on the twenty fourth day of January 24‚ 2013‚ nineteen years into my life know that I was going to be struggling on this assignment? I guess Mr. Hawking and I will never know. Lets take a moment to honestly think about it. Stephen Hawking wrote his book (in this case we are referring to his short excerpt in The Norton Reader)

All organisms must have adaptations to survive. The adaptations that organisms develop help them to survive in their environments and then are passed down through reproduction. The genes are passed to future generations and adaptations continue to occur over long periods of time. Nature Works tells us‚” animals that are better adapted to their environment survive and breed. Animals that are not well adapted to an environment may not survive.” There are three types of adaptations that can occur: morphological

living organisms require an even distribution of specific nutrients throughout their bodies. The distribution of these nutrients must remain constant otherwise the organism will not be able to function at full capacity‚ which may lead to its death. It is for this reason that osmosis and other forms of diffusion are of prime importance to all living organisms‚ because they influence the distribution of nutrients throughout the
