Pro means before, so an easy way to remember this is pro means before a nucleus.]]> 2017-09-16 22:49:05 UTC https://padlet.com/miranda_moser96/mirndamoser/wish/188181023 miranda_moser96 https://padlet.com/miranda_moser96/mirndamoser/wish/188181155 Eukaryotes are cells where DNA is found in the nucleus of the cell. An easier way to remember this concept is that eu is in the word eukaryote and the word nucleus. ]]> 2017-09-16 22:53:56 UTC https://padlet.com/miranda_moser96/mirndamoser/wish/188181155 miranda_moser96 https://padlet.com/miranda_moser96/mirndamoser/wish/188181287 Sexual reproduction is when offspring is created by a male and a female exchanging genetic material.

For example, during the Industrial Revolution, peppered moths became darker because soot started to cover everything and they adapted to their environment to blend in,]]> 2017-09-16 23:09:58 UTC https://padlet.com/miranda_moser96/mirndamoser/wish/188181594 miranda_moser96 https://padlet.com/miranda_moser96/mirndamoser/wish/188181685 A cell is the smallest unit, or building block of all living things. Unicellular organisms (uni means one) are organisms that are made of one cell, like bacteria.
