Homologous structure
This dog leg is an example because this leg and a humans leg are similar because of common ancestry.
Commensalism
This butterfly is a part of commensalism because the type of relationship between two species of a plant or animal in which one lives in another without damage to either. The butterflies food is this leaf.
Modified root of a plant
Carrots are an example because they are large tap roots that are modified for food and water storage.
archaebacteria
Boiling water is an example of archaebacteria because it has microorganisms that are similar to bacteria in size of structure but radically diffferent in molecular organizations.
gibberellins
Grapes are an example of gibberellins because they are a plant that has horomones that regulate growth and influence various development processes.
Calvin Cycle
These sweet potatoes are an example of the calvin cycle because they have biochemical redox reactions that take place in the stroma of chloroplasts in photosynthetic organisms.
Eukaryote
This will be the rest of my pictures.

Long-Day Plant: Lettuce, a plant that flowers only after being exposed to light periods longer than a certain critical length, as in summer.
Hydrophobic: Olive Oil, fails to mix with water.
Fermentation: The process of converting sugar to carbon dioxide and alcohol with yeast. To make wine, grapes are crushed and fermented.
Ethylene: Ethylene gas is the ripening agent that occurs naturally in nature. It causes fruits to ripen & decay. Ethylene gas turns Bananas yellow and then brown.
CAM Plant:

Pineapple, a plant that undergoes a form of photosynthesis known as crassulacean acid metabolism, in which carbon dioxide is taken up only at night. | |
