What is evolution?

matter or energy moving from the point where this variable has a higher value to the point
with a lower value, we say it flows down the gradient—for example, from a warmer to a
cooler point, or a place of high chemical concentration to one of lower concentration.
"downhill" for example.
this will flow normally

All living species exhibit genetic change from generation to generation and therefore
evolve.

Unlike the other characteristics of life, evolution is a characteristic seen only in the
population as a whole. No single individual evolves over the course of its life.

The integrating (control) center is a mechanism that processes this information, relates it
to other available information and makes a decision about what the appropriate response
should be.

They are the smallest units of an organism that carry out all the basic functions of life;
nothing simpler than a cell is considered alive.
Composed of atoms, molecules, and organelles (microscopic structures within cells) that
work together to perform a given function
The smallest units capable of sustaining life

What is reproduction?

On opposite sides of the body (R/L)

ex: The spleen (left side) is contralateral to the liver (right side)

Positive feedback is a self-amplifying cycle in which a physiological change leads to even

greater change in the same direction. We want More, more more.

Ex: Childbirth, lactation, coagulation.

All living organisms can produce copies of themselves, thus passing their genes on to new,
younger containers—their offspring.

The ability to sense and react to stimuli (changes in the environment) is called
responsiveness or excitability. Most organisms should be capable of self propelled
movement from place to place.
