A biome is a large naturally occurring community of flora (plants) and fauna (animals) occupying a major habitat (home or environment).
Capillaries are small thin-walled vessels that permit the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste between blood and the body's cells. This process of exchange is called diffusion.
In contrast to the Celsius scale (measured in degrees centigrade) that fixes 0° at the freezing point of water and the Fahrenheit scale that uses 32°, the Kelvin scale fixes 0° at absolute zero (-273°C) which is the lowest temperature possible in the universe.
Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time: \(P = {w \over t}\) and is measured in watts (W).
The narrowest classification of life, species, contains organisms that are so similar that they can only reproduce with others of the same species.
