Abiotic factors like water, air, and energy are essential for life on Earth and influence the biosphere.
Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's surface is made of moving plates that create mountains, oceans, and earthquakes.
Every autumn, something magical happens. The green landscapes we're used to transform into a vibrant mix of reds, oranges, yellows, and purples.
Every autumn, nature puts on a spectacular show as leaves transform into a vibrant tapestry of reds, oranges, and yellows.
Photosynthesis converts sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose and oxygen, providing energy for plants and releasing oxygen into the atmosphere.
Euglena are single-celled organisms that can live in both fresh and salt water.
The geosphere, especially soil, gives plants key mineral nutrients for survival.

Animal bodies are organized systems where organ systems work together to maintain health.
Eukaryotic cells likely started when a big prokaryotic cell took in a smaller one. Then they lived together in a helpful way.
Genetics explains how traits are passed from parents to offspring through DNA, chromosomes, and genes.
Gene therapy aims to treat, cure, or prevent diseases by changing or replacing faulty genes.
Mutations are changes in DNA that can happen when cells copy themselves, potentially affecting how cells function.
Biomolecules, including carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids, are essential for life and contain carbon.
Meiosis is a type of cell division that creates sperm and egg cells for sexual reproduction.
De-extinction, the revival of extinct species, is being explored through cloning and genome editing, each with distinct advantages and limitations.
The digestive system breaks down food, absorbs nutrients, and removes waste, starting in the mouth and ending at the anus.
Genes are blueprints for making proteins, which are essential for building and repairing the body.
Plankton are tiny organisms that drift in water and play a big role in the planet's health.
Hydrates are crystalline compounds with water molecules in their structure, affecting their properties.

Photosynthesis uses sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create glucose (sugar) and oxygen, storing energy in sugar molecules.
Ions are atoms or molecules with an electrical charge caused by gaining or losing electrons.
The scientific method is a step-by-step approach used to explore the world, answer questions, and solve problems.
Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions by binding to specific substrates at their active sites.
Resistors are passive components that impede electrical current, measured in ohms, and are essential for circuit design.
