This is a picture of a flower, inside of the flower is the Stigma and style of carpel. In this picture, the carpel is the purple part in the inside of this flower. The carpel is the female sex part of the flower. The stigma, which is the top part of the style, is where pollen germinates. And the style, which is the middle part of the carpel, is where the pollen tubes grow.
 This is a picture of corn plants. Corn is an example of a C4 plant. C4 plants grow most efficiently in hot and sunny climates, and you can see in the picture that is very sunny out, explaining why the plants look to be growing well.

This is a picture of a chicken egg. A bird egg is an example of an Amniotic egg. The animals that produce amniotic eggs are reptiles, prototherian mammals, and birds. An amniotic egg is an egg in which the embryo develops inside an amnion, which is the innermost membrane of the egg.

This is a picture of a bee on a flower. The relationship between a bee and a flower is an example of Mutualism. Mutualism is when two organisms of different species have a relationship in which both organisms benefit from each other. In this picture, the flower is helping the bee by providing food for the bees family, and the bee is helping the flower by carrying pollen from one flower to another, pollinating it.

This is a picture of a plant, which is an example of a plant that uses the Krebs cycle. The krebs cycle is a series of reactions in which most living cells, like the cells in this plant, generate energy through the process of aerobic respiration.
This is a picture of a red impatiens flower and a white impatiens flower, which are examples of Dominant and recessive phenotypes. A phenotype is the way something looks, and the red impatiens flower has either one or two dominant alleles making it have a dominant phenotype. And the white impatiens flower must have two recessive alleles, giving it a recessive phenotype.
This is a picture of various foliage, all that produce ATP. ATP is produced by plants like these through cellular respiration where glucose and oxygen are turned into carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. ATP stores and supplies plants with energy.
This is a picture of a plant showing Tropism. This plant is growing upwards towards light, which is known as positive phototropism. Tropism is when an organism turns a particular direction in response to an external factor, such as the light in this picture.

This picture is of a butterfly, which is an example of Bilateral symmetry. An object has bilateral symmetry if it can be divided into symmetrical halves on either side of a unique part of the object. In this case, the butterflies wings are both yellow with symmetrical black edges of the wings.  

This is a picture of a cactus, which is an example of a CAM plant. CAM plants have adapted to avoid unnecessary water loss during photosynthesis, so that cacti like this one can grow in the desert when other plants cannot.
This is a picture of a plant, which contains Xylem. Xylem is a tissue in plants that carries water and nutrients from the root of a plant such as this plant to the top of the plant.
This is a picture of a flower with pollen on it. Pollen is a substance that comes from the male part of a flower, or from a male cone. In this picture, the pollen is the yellow powdery substance that has settled in the middle part of the flower.
This is a picture of a basil plant, at the stem tips of this plant is the Auxin producing area of a plant. The plant hormone auxin is produced at plant stem tips, like the stem tips in this basil plant, and auxin promotes cell elongation.
This is a picture of perennial weeds, which use Asexual Reproduction. Asexual reproduction in plants like perennial weeds produce offspring identical to the parent plant by producing seeds without fertilization.
This is a picture of a flower, and inside the flower is the flower ovary. The flower ovary is the female reproductive organ of the flower and the part of the pistil that holds the ovules for flowers like this one.
This is a picture of potatoes, which are examples of C3 plants. C3 plants grow more efficiently when they are in cool wet climates, which explains why potatoes grown in hotter climates grow less tubers per plant compared to potatoes grown in cool climates.
This is a picture of a flower, and inside the flower you can see the Anther and filament of stamen. The stamen is the part of the flower that produces pollen. The filament in this picture is the slender white part holding up the purple anther, which is the part of the stamen where pollen is produced.
This is a picture of a parsley plant. A parsley plant is an example of an autotroph. Plants like parsley produce energy from sunlight and carbon dioxide for themselves through the process of photosynthesis, meaning they are autotrophs.
This is a picture of a plant. Plants produce carbon dioxide, water, and ATP through the process of Cellular respiration. In cellular respiration plants like the one in this picture convert glucose, oxygen, and sunlight into carbon dioxide, water, and ATP, which is energy.
This is a picture of vegetable oil in water, the vegetable oil is Hydrophobic. Hydrophobic substances tend to repel water or fail to mix with water. In this picture the oil is sitting on top of the water without mixing into it, meaning this vegetable oil is hydrophobic.
This is a picture of salt in water. The salt in this picture is Hydrophilic. A hydrophilic substance has a tendency to mix with or dissolve in water. In this picture the salt has dissolved in the water, meaning the salt is hydrophilic.

This is a picture of a wasp on top of a flower, which is an example of Seed dispersal. Seed dispersal is the movement of seeds away from a parent plant. In this picture, the wasp was flying from flower to flower, and while moving around on the flowers the wasp was most likely dispersing seeds around.

This is a picture of algae, which is an example of a type of Spore. A spore is a unit of sexual or asexual reproduction that can survive in difficult conditions when dispersed.
This is a picture of a plant, which is exhibiting Taxis. This plant is showing phototaxis, which is a response to light, causing this plant to grow upwards towards the light.
This is a picture of an ant. An ant is an example of an animal that has a segmented body. Animals with a segmented body tend to have the same structures in each segment, such as a set of legs, breathing organs, or nerves. There are often some variations between the segments. An ant like the one in this picture has three segments, the head, the thorax, and the abdomen.
