1. __________• Organisms have 1 or

more cells– Cell = basic unit of life

• Atoms biosphere

•complete living thing carrying out all life processes

22. ___________________• Why is this so important?Why is this so important?

Plants Responding to Light

3. _________________• Maintenance of a constant internal

environment.– Ex. body temperature
