Symbiosis- living together, a special relationship between two species necessary for the survival of at least one of the two organisms. It is not mutual or unilateral physiologic dependency but living together without any reference to benefit or damage to symbionts. There are four types: commensalism, phoresis, mutualism and parasitism. Symbiont- an organism that spends a portion of or all of its life intimately associated with another living organism of a different species. Commensalism- One

kids rolling into a ball when disturbed is a crustacea that belongs to an animal group called isopods. Pill bugs are crustaceans that have adapted to terrestrial habitats. According to Koehler (1994), “They are wingless, oval or slightly elongated arthropods about 12 inch in length and slate-gray with body segments resembling armored plates” (p. 1). Pill bugs lack tails and were given the name “rolly-pollies” to further describe their tendency to roll into a tight ball when frightened or in danger.

1. In your own words, provide a definition for “homeostatic regulator” and “homeostatic conformer”. Describe an example of an animal that is a regulator with regards to one physical condition but a conformer with regards to a different condition. -Homeostatic regulator is one in which it uses internal mechanisms to control internal change in the face external fluctuation. (an otter regulates body temp independently of exterior cold water). -Homeostatic conformer is one in which the organism if it

The reproductive system or genital system is a system of organs within an organism which work together for the purpose of reproduction. Many non-living substances such as fluids, hormones, and pheromones are also important accessories to the reproductive system. Unlike most organ systems, the sexes of differentiated species often have significant differences. These differences allow for a combination of genetic material between two individuals, which allows for the possibility of greater genetic

Daphnia are small planktonic crustaceans that belong to the Phyllopoda (sometimes called Branchiopoda), which are characterized by flattened leaf-like legs used to produce a water current for the filtering apparatus. Within the branchiopods, Daphnia belong to the Cladocera, whose bodies are enclosed by an uncalcified shell known as the carapace. It has a double wall, between which hemolymph flows and which is part of the body cavity. The carapace is largely made of chitin, a polysaccharide. Cladocera
