are capable of growing and reproducing, and they all possess hereditary molecules that are
passed to their offspring, ensuring that the offspring are of the same species.
What is Energy Utilization? - CORRECT ANSWER - All organisms take in every and use
it to perform many kinds of work. every muscle in your body is powered with energy you obtain
from the food you eat.
What is Homeostasis? - CORRECT ANSWER - All organisms maintain relatively constant
internal conditions that are different from their environment
