- Biotic factors
- Abiotic factors
- Organism
- a living thing; anything that can carry out life processes independently
- Species
- a group of organisms that are closely related and can mate to produce fertile offspring; also the level of classification below genus and above subspecies
- Population
- a group of organisms of the same species that live in a specific geographical are and interbreed
- Community
- a group of various species that live in the same habitat and interact with each other
- Habitat
- the place where an organism usually lives
- Natural Selection
- the process by which individuals that are better adapted to their environment survive and reproduce more successfully than less well adapted individuals do; a theory to explain the mechanism of evolution
- Evolution
- a heritable change in the characteristics within a population from one generation to the next; the development of new types of organisms from preexisting types of organisms over time
- Adaptation
- the process of becoming adapted to an environment; an anatomical, physiological, or behavioral change that improves a population's ability to survive
- Artificial Selection
- the selective breeding of organisms (by humans) for specific desirable characteristics
- Resistance
- in biology, the ability of an organism to tolerate a chemical or disease-causing agent
- Archaea
- prokaryotes (most of which are known to live in extreme environments) that are distinguished from other prokaryotes by differences in their genetics and in the makeup of their cell wall; members of the domain Archaea
- Bacteria
- extremely small, single-celled organisms that usually have a cell wall and reproduce by cell division
- Fungus
- an organism whose cells have nuclei, rigid cell walls, and chlorophyll and that belongs to the kingdom Fungi
- Protist
- an organism that belongs to the Kingdom Protista
- Gymnosperm
- a woody vascular seed plant whose seeds are not enclosed by an ovary or fruit
- Angiosperm
- a flowering plant that produces seeds within a fruit
- Invertebrate
- an animal that does not have a backbone
- Vertebrate
- an animal that has a backbone; includes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish
