Introduction
I chose the words in this book because they are words that I learned this year that
are very important in my opinion. The ABC Biology Book is made to show my
understanding of the topics we learned this semester in biology. It is also made to
give other people the opportunity to learn more about biology.

Mitosis/Meiosis

Is For Evolution
Evolution is any change in the heritable traits within a
population across generations. This is how species
change to have different features. We evolve to be
different.

Conclusion
My favorite topic from this semester was DNA and RNA. I thought that learning
about DNA and its replication process, its matching pairs, and RNA’s ability to read
the DNA and code for amino acids was amazing. There is so much in DNA and
each little part of it make learning about it magical.
