Document Summary

Bio keyweord 2: analogy the comparison between two things, typically on the basis of their structure for the purpose of explaining of clarifying, bicarbonate a polyatomic atom with a formula of hco- 3 . extremely important in balancing the ph of human buffering system (balances the ph of blood). Carbonic acid is the central intermediate species (fundamental group): biogeography the study of geological distribution of plants and animals, i. e. ecosystems through a geological are and through geological time. Used by darwin in order to help him realize that certain organisms evolve in a certain way and come from a common ancestor. Compared all organisms and thoughts started at one place: carbon cycle it"s the glo(cid:271)al (cid:272)ir(cid:272)ulatio(cid:374) of (cid:272)ar(cid:271)o(cid:374) ato(cid:373)s, parti(cid:272)ularl(cid:455) through (cid:272)ellular respiration and photosynthesis. Extremely important for the cycle of life because it regulates the amount of carbon atoms in the atmosphere etc. (equilibrium).
