Bilateral Symmetry

This is a leaf, which I found in my garden. Leaves have bilateral symmetry which means that they have a basic body plan in which their left and right sides can be divided.

Basidiomycete

This is a mushroom which I found in my refrigerator. Mushrooms are examples of basidiomycetes, which are a type of fungi that bear sexually reproduced spores on a basidium.

Asexual Reproduction

This is a bee which I found in my garden. Some types of bees reproduce asexually, which means that one individual produces offspring that are genetically identical to itself.

Segmented Body



This is an ant which I found in my kitchen (sadly). An ant has a segmented body, which is a body divided into segments that are often grouped into larger functional units. The ant is in the lower right corner of this picture on the white tile.

Amniotic Egg


This is a chicken egg found in my refrigerator which is an example of an amniotic egg. Birds, such as chickens, and reptiles give birth through amniotic eggs which contain a yolk to nourish their young.

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my blog! Here I will be posting my AP Biology summer assignments; I'll put up at least five pictures a week. I'll keep my phone in all of my pictures to authenticate my pictures.
