Molecules-very small particle or substance; smallest unit of a compound or substance. Cells- building blocks of life ; smallest unit of life that is able to replicate by itself. Population-primary unit of evolution; it will be more mainly focused. Communities-ecological unit where groups of many species interact with each other and their environment in a common area. Ecosystems-community that contains all biotic and abiotic factors of their environment. In biology, we are formulating and imposing questions to find answers to.
