Patterns and processes of evolution. How evolution and natural selection are reflected in the similarities and differences of organisms. 

Plant cells have a cell wall in addition to a cell membrane, whereas animal cells have only a cell membrane. Plants use cell walls to provide structure to the plant. Plant cells contain organelles called chloroplasts, while animal cells do not. Chloroplasts allow plants to make the food they need to live using photosynthesis.

In this online lesson you will learn how to compare measurements that have different units.

In this unit you will learn how to convert between common metric units of measure.
