Homoeostasis: The ability of an organism to maintain an internal equilibrium. It means that there has to be a state of balance among all the body systems to survive.

Horses use homoeostasis by getting exercise, eating, digesting food, getting rid of waste, and sleeping, all to create a well balanced life to help them survive.

Niche: Place or position.

I noticed that clovers grow in patches or groups in shady areas. This area is the clover's niche.

Anther & filament of stamen: An anther is the part of the stamen that contains the pollen. The filament is the male reproductive part of a plant. The stamen is the male fertilizing organ of a flower.

As you see in the picture above, it shows the anther and filament of the stamen and pollen as well.

Gymnosperm cone (male or female)-  a gymnosperm is a vascular plant having seeds that are not enclosed in an ovary.

This is and example of a female cone. Female cones are bigger than male cones.

Ectotherm:  An animal that is dependent on external sources of body heat.

My cat Katelyn is an example of an ectotherm..
