Territorial Behavior

This is a picture of a dog urinating. A dog urinating shows territorial behavior. Territorial behavior is when an animal protects their territory by marking it with their scent. By urinating, the dog is marking his territory by releasing his scent to assert his dominance. Other dogs bark or bite people or other animals if they go near their territory or possession.    

Pollen

This is a picture of a flower. Flowers contain pollen. Pollen is a yellow powder that is released by flowers. It is part of the male reproductive organ in a flower which is located in the stamen. Pollen is used to fertilize the ovule. It is moved by the wind or insects, such as bees or butterflies. 

Niche

This is a picture of a nest. This nest represents a niche. Niche refers to the area an organism or organisms inhabit. Nests are inhabited by birds who use nearby twigs and mud to create their home. Birds use their surrounding resources in order to create their nest.

Mutualism

This is a picture of a person with a plant. The person and plant represent a mutualism relationship. Mutualism is relationship that benefits two different living organisms. Humans and plants have this relationship since humans breath in the oxygen that plants produce while plants use the carbon dioxide that humans exhale. They both benefit from each other. 

Modified Root Of A Plant

This is a picture of beets. Beets are examples of a modified root of a plant. A modified root is a root which is changed to make it easier for the plant to survive in its environment. There are several different types of modified roots, but beets are classified to be storage roots. Beets are used to store more nutrients and water for harmful conditions. 

Long-day Plant

This is a picture of spinach. Spinach is one example of a long-day plant. Long-day plants need less darkness to bloom or thrive. Spinach thrives in the long days of summer which is why there is an abundant of them during the sunny season.

Homologous Structures

This is a picture of an arm. A human arm is an example of a homologous structure. Homologous structures are organs or bones that are similar in multiple animals which suggest that they have a common ancestor. A human arm contains wrist bones, fingers, ulna, and a radius. These features have also been found in other animals such as bats making it a homologous structure.   

Hermaphrodite

This is a picture of a sea snail. This sea snail is an example of a hermaphrodite. Hermaphrodite is an organism that has both female and male reproductive organs. Snails can easily and quickly reproduce and some snails can even reproduce all by themselves since they are hermaphrodites. 

Genetically Modified Organisms

This is a picture of grapes. These grapes are examples of genetically modified organisms (GMO). GMO is an organism whose genome was changed by genetic engineering. This is used to make foods have a brighter color, be resistant to diseases or bugs, or look more desirable. GMO makes grapes look more appealing and have a bigger size than they naturally do.  

Flower Ovary

This is a picture of a flower. Flowers have an ovary. A flower's ovary is a female reproductive organ that contain ovules which eventually turn into seeds. It is located above, below, or on the base of the petals which is part of the flower's pistil.  

Exoskeleton

This is a picture of a lobster. Lobsters are examples of animals who have an exoskeleton. Exoskeleton is the external "shell" of an animal that helps protect its body. Lobsters have a hard "shell" or exoskeleton to protect is from predators as do insects.  

Eukaryote

This is a picture of grass. Grass represents a eukaryote. Eukaryote is any cell or living organism that has a membrane-bound nucleus. Grass or any other plants have organelles, like the mitochondria, which eukaryote cells must have.

Ethylene

Bananas are examples of plants who contain ethylene. Ethylene is a natural plant hormone that helps grow or ripen fruits. Nodes of stems produce ethylene, thus bananas ripen themselves by using it. It can also be made into gas which people make in order to ripen the fruits faster.  

Endotherm

This is a picture of birds. Birds are examples of endothermic animals. Endotherms are warm-blooded animals who have a constant body temperature. The temperature of their surrounding environment does not effect them. Birds and mammals do not rely on the environment's temperature to keep themselves cool or warm.   

Endosperm

This is a picture of popcorn. Popcorn is an example of an endosperm. Endosperm is the tissue that surrounds the embryo of a seed which provides nutrition to the seed while it is developing. It also forms an edible portion, for example when kernel corn is popped, it turns into popcorn. It is essentially a seed that is turned inside out making it a food humans may consume.  

Ectotherm

This is a picture of a snake. Snakes are one representation of ectotherms. Ectotherms are cold-blooded animals who rely on outside sources for warmth. The temperature of the surrounding environment causes the body temperature of snakes to change with it. Other ectotherm animals include fish, amphibians, various reptiles, and invertebrates.  

Cuticle Layer Of A Plant

This is a picture of a leaf. Leaves contain a cuticle layer of plants. A cuticle layer of a plant is the protective layer which is on top of the epidermal cells of leaves. It holds the water inside a plant and can be recognized as the waxy layer of a plant.   

Cambium

This is a picture of tree bark. Tree bark is an example of cambium. Cambium is a meristematic tissue located in the inner bark and the wood to help growth. It is seen in woody plants and it also forms the rings of trees.

C3 Plant

This is a picture of rice. Rice represents one example of a C3 plant. C3 plants are better photosynthesizing in cooler and wetter climates. Plants, such as rice, leave their stomata open in the day to obtain carbon dioxide. It is harmful for these plants to keep their stomata open in hot areas.  

Bilateral Symmetry

This is a picture of a fish. Fish are examples of animals who are bilaterally symmetrical. Bilateral symmetry is having a mirror image along the middle line of an organism. Bilaterally symmetrical animals must have five features in order to be considered part of this group. Fish have these features which include having a top, bottom, identical left and right sides, a head, and a tail. Most animals are considered to be bilaterally symmetrical.

Basiodiomycete

This is a picture of mushrooms. Mushrooms are examples of basiodiomycetes. Basiodiomycetes are fungi that produce spores on basidia. Smuts, rust, and puffballs also produce spores on a basidium, mush like a mushroom.  

Autotroph

This is a picture of flowers. Flowers are autotrophs. Autotrophs are organisms who produce their own food by using light or chemical energy. Flowers use the sunlight to produce their own food. Other examples include multiple plants, algae, and some bacteria. 

ATP

This is a picture of a chinchilla. A chinchilla is an example of a living organism who has ATP. ATP is a molecule that stores energy and releases energy when it is broken down. ATP  is produced in the mitochondria. All eukaryotes have ATP, like chinchillas who use ATP to break down their food.   

Animal That Has A Segmented Body

This is a picture of an ant. An ant is one example of animals who have a segmented body. Animals that have a segmented body have different functions for each of their body part. An ant's body has three sections which are the head, thorax, and abdomen. Each individual part of the ant has a specific function.  

Amniotic Egg

This is a picture of a birds' eggs. Eggs are examples of an amniotic egg. An amniotic egg refers to eggs that have an amnion (fluid of membranes that surround embryos) to help protect the embryo. Animals who produce amniotic eggs include reptiles, birds, and some mammals.
