Kinetic energy - energy of motion, Potential energy - stored energy of an object because of its position or shape, Unbalanced force - unequal forces on an object that may result in a change in position, direction, or motion, Conduction - transfer of heat through direct contact from a warmer substance to a cooler substance, Convection - transfer of thermal energy, in a liquid or gas, in which the warmer substance rises and the cooler substance sinks; forms a current, Energy - the ability to cause change or do work, Energy transfer - transfer of energy from one object or substance to another, Law of conservation of energy - states that energy is neither created or destroyed, Radiation - the transfer of energy from a light source (e.g., Sun, fire, light bulb, burner) to an object or substance, Temperature - measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, Thermal energy - a form of kinetic energy resulting from the motion of particles that is transferred as heat; associated with the temperature of substances, Asexual reproduction - mode of reproduction with only one parent, Autotroph - organisms, known as producers in a food chain, capable of synthesizing their own food by a process known as photosynthesis; all plants and some forms of bacteria and other organisms, Cell - a basic unit of structure and function in living organisms, Cell theory - states that the cell is the basic unit of life, all living organisms are composed of cells, and all cells come from pre-existing cells, Domain - broadest taxonomic classification of organisms, Eukaryotic - cell that contains an organized nucleus, Heterotrophic - organisms, known as consumers in a food chain, which cannot synthesize their own food; carnivores, herbivores, and omnivores, Kingdom - second broadest taxonomic classification of organisms, Multicellular - organism made up of more than one cell, Nucleus - a structure within a cell that contains the cell’s DNA and is responsible for providing instructions to the cell, regarding growth and reproduction, Prokaryotic - cell that does not contain a nucleus, Sexual reproduction - mode of reproduction with two parents, Taxonomy - the process or system of describing the ways in which organisms are grouped or classified according to similarities and differences, Unicellular - organism made up of only one cell,
