| Cell Specialization | Cells specialize after 5 days of growth for particular function. |
| Cell Growth | Cells grow and develop through Sexual and Asexual reproduction. |
| Cells | The basic building block of all living things |
| Cell Division | The process of cells making more through Asexual reproduction |
| Metabolism | The overall process of using food to create energy |
| ATP | Energy created by the mitochondria |
| Photosynthesis | Process by which plants create food |
| Respiration | The process by which the mitochondria creates energy |
| Sexual Reproduction | The process of making more cells through the combination of 2 organisms genetic information |
| Cell Function | Every cell has a particular job in multicellular organisms. A cell in the heart has a job of being a heart cell. |
| Organelles | These are found in the cell and are responsible for working together to maintain homeostasis in the cell |
| ASexual Reproduction | The process of making more cells without requiring new genetic information. More cells come from 1 cell. |
