Lichen: is a fungus and an organism with chlorophyll that live together.



Viruses and Monerans

Virus: is made of chromosome-like part surrounded by a protein coat.

Host: is an organism that provides food for a parasite.

Parasite: is a organism that lives in or on another living things and gets food from it.

Interferon: is a chemical substance that interferes with the way viruses reproduce.

Vaccine: are substance made from weakened or dead viruses.

Bacteria: are very small, one celled monerans.

Colony: is a group of similar cells growing next to each other that do not depend on each other.

Capsule: some bacterias have a sticky outer layer.

 

Flagellum: some bacteria move with a long, whiplike thread.

Fission: is the process of one organism dividing into two organism. 

Asexual Reproduction: is the reproducing of a livind thing from only one parent.

Endospore: is a thick walled structure that forms inside the cell, enclosing all the nuclear material and some cytoplasm.

Saprophyte: are organisms that use dead materials for food.

Decompocer: are living things that get their own food from breaking down dead matter into simpler chemicals

.

Kochs postulates: are steps for proving that a disease is caused by a certain microscopic organism.

Communicable disease: are ones that can be passed from one organism to another.

Antibiotic: are chemical substance that kill or slow the growth of bacteria.

Biotechnology: is the use of living things to solve practical problems.

Pasteurization: the process of heating milk to kill harmful bacteria.

Blue-green bacteria: are small, one celled monerans that contain chlorophyll and can make their own food.

Scientific Name: the genus and the specie named together.

Moneran: are one-celled organism that dont have a nucleus.

Protist: are mostly single-celled organism that have a nucleus and other cell parts.

Fungi: are organism that have cell walls and absorb food from their surroundings.

Plant: are organisms that are made up of many cells, have chlorophyll, and can make their own food.

Animal: are organisms that have many cells, cant make their own food and can move.



Features of Life and Cell

Reproduce: means to form offspring similar to the parents.

Development: is all the change that occur as a living thing grow.
