They are able to divide every 1-3 hours, while some species are able to divide every 20 minutes. The cells eventually end their nutrient supply, compete with other organisms, poison themselves, or are consumed by other organisms and are then not able to reproduce anymore.  ]]> 2018-05-18 08:38:57 UTC https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261842483 rs5275 https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261842609 2018-05-18 08:39:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261842609 rs5275 https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261845147 2018-05-18 08:49:43 UTC https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261845147 rs5275 https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261845242 The three factors that allow genetic variation are rapid reproduction, mutation, and genetic recombination.
Rapid Reproduction and Mutation:
Most of the cell's offspring are genetically identical to the parent. If a mutation occurs, especially in an organism that has short generation times and large populations, the offspring cells may differ genetically.
Genetic Recombination: 
This is the combining of DNA from two sources. Transformation, transduction, and conjugation can bring together prokaryotic DNA from different sources.

In general, there would not be any breakdown of substances. They are essential in maintaining every aspect of the ecological balance of the living world as decomposers, producers, and nitrogen fixers.

New arrangements of genes arise within each offspring. Each of an organism's gametes has a unique combination of genetic information because of recombination and crossing over during mitosis. For reproduction, during interphase, the cell takes in nutrients, grows, and duplicates its chromosomes. During the cell division phase, the nucleus divides in a process called mitosis and then the divided nuclei are established in separate cells in a process called cytokinesis. ]]> 2018-05-18 14:21:11 UTC https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261933497 rs5275 https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261937905 2018-05-18 14:31:44 UTC https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261937905 rs5275 https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261956966 Protists are important producers and are the base of ecological food webs.

-Produce their own food 
Plants synthesize food through the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants, having chlorophyll, synthesize the simple sugar (glucose) from water and carbon dioxide using the energy of sunlight. Oxygen is also released in photosynthesis. Sugar is produced and stored in the form of starch in plants. It provides energy when it is required by the organism.  ]]> 2018-05-18 16:13:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261976814 rs5275 https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261976866 Fungi are heterotrophic.
They are chlorophyll deficient plants and cannot manufacture carbohydrates using carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight. They are a simple structural organization, so they always depend on dead or living organic matter for energy. They absorb dissolved nutrients from their surroundings.
Classified into four groups: 
-Saprophytes, parasites, symbionts, and predacious fungi.

Sexual:
Sexual reproduction in flowering plants involves the production of male and female gametes, the transfer of the male gametes to the female ovules is pollination. After pollination occurs, fertilization happens and the ovules grow into seeds within a fruit or a flower.
Asexual:
Asexual reproduction in plants is typically an extension of the capacity of intermediate growth. Fermentation is one of the most common modes of asexual reproduction. Plants who reproduce asexually does not need a pollinator. It also allows the plant to pass down all of its alleles and can clone many copies of itself. ]]> 2018-05-18 17:19:23 UTC https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261999783 rs5275 https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261999868 The majority of fungi reproduce asexually by budding, fragmentation, or producing spores. Fragments of hyphae can grow new colonies. Asexual reproduction is most common in the formation of asexual spores, which are produced by one parent only (through mitosis) and are genetically identical to that parent.
Fungi that reproduce sexually involves the fusion of two nuclei when two sex cells unite. This joining produces spores that can grow into new organisms. ]]> 2018-05-18 17:19:41 UTC https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/261999868 rs5275 https://padlet.com/rs5275/84lxmotmclnq/wish/262006730 Fungi are important to the ecosystem because they decompose complex organic molecules and return their minerals to the soil and gaes to the air.

Herbivores:
eat mainly plants or plant parts such as leaves, fruits, seeds, nectar, shoots, and roots
Carnivores:
eat the flesh of other creatures
Insectivores:

During sexual reproduction in animals, a haploid sperm and unites with a haploid egg cell to form a diploid zygote.

Natural selection is a filter for genetic variation.
