Please don’t stress out too much!! Yes, I know that there are a LOT of terms but this is
the ONLY chapter that contains this much. Survival of the Fittest!! Quiz #1 will be on
Thursday and Quiz #2 will be on Friday! Through the semester I usually give vocabulary

INCLUDES THE PREVIOUS TERMS…. (For example…quiz #3 includes all the terms
from quiz #1, # 2, and #3!)
