Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.

An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of vertebrate animals, including humans.

A substance undergoes a phase transition when it moves from one state of matter to another, for example, when water freezes or boils.

Primary consumers (herbivores) subsist on producers like plants and fungus. Examples are grasshoppers, cows, and plankton.

Food is mixed with gastric acid and pepsin in the stomach to help break down protein.
