Back

hypothesis

Front

a tentative answer to a well-framed question (explanation on trial) "if...then..." statements must be falsifiable and testable

Molecules

Front

a chemical structure consisting of two of more small chemical units called atoms.

Back

Organs

Front

a system of tissues; these can coordinate together to make a bigger system with a particular function.
