Nails have keratin in them. Our hair also made up of keratin.
This is a picture of my dog and cat. Because they live together and get along this is an example of commensalism.
This egg shown in the picture is an example of amniotic egg. It is layed by chickens.
This flower is an example of an eukaryote. This is because the nucleus is clearly shown.
The tomato is ripening because of a gaseous hormone called ethylene.
This tree is an example of xylem. Xylem is way that nutrients are transported from the roots to the leaves.
My arm and hand are examples of epithelial tissure. The epithelial tissue is the skin that covers my hand and arm protecting the inside.
In the inside of the plant there is pollen. This is what helps create new plants.
A pineapple is an example of a CAM plant. A CAM plant allows CO2 to enter at night.
A lemon shows radial symmetry.
Animals and humans are examples of heterotrophs. A heterotroph cannot produce its own food from photosynthesis.
Flowers are an example of autotrophs. They are able to produce their own food from photosynthesis.
This plant is an example of ATP. ATP transports chemical energy within cells for metabolism.
Enzymes are what help break things down. The salivia on your tongue acts as an enzyme by breaking down the food we eat.
A phenotype is the dominant allele. In my family brown eyes is the dominant allele.
Our ears are made up of connective tissue. One example of connective tissue is cartilage. Ears are made up of cartilage.
Phloem is in the inner most layer of the tree. It is also responsible for carring sugar and nutrients throughtout the tree.
Dominant vs. Recessive phenotype. This picture of my cat shows the different colors she has. Black is the dominant phenotype because most of her body is black, where orange and white are recessive.
A Meristem. This stem shows areas where new growth can begin.
Bread is an example of carbohydrates. It is made up of starch and sugars which break down as energy for your body.
A potato is an example of a long day plant. This means the plant needs sunlight for more than a normal days length.
Gibberellins are hormones that are produced in roots, stems and leaves.
Kayla,
ReplyDeleteGood work.
Some corrections:
1. An individual dog and cat living together is NOT commensalism. Symbiotic relationships would be consistent between all members of a species, and have to be an evolved relationship over a very long period of time (thousands or millions of years) between two species that live in the same ecosystem.
2. We don't use the phrase "animals and humans". Humans ARE animals.
3. Flowers are NOT autotrophs. They are reproductive structures on plants. The plants are the organisms and therefore are the autotrophs.
4. While black maybe dominant genetically; it is not because it is the predominant color on your cat. It is because if the cat inherits one copy of the black allele for fur color from one parent and one copy of a white allele for fur color from the other parent; it is the black color that will be visible. Dominant allele means it "masks" the other versions.
Also I am hoping that you are not suggesting that the nucleus is visible in that photograph of the flower. Remind yourself by looking in the text where a nucleus is and how big it is.
