Studying a brick does not predict the design of a skyscraper. Intense examination of muscle tissues does not allow you to predict the design of a kangaroo or clam. The structure of chlorophyll does not dictate the unique structure of a tree. These cases demonstrate

• the essential properties of life.

• the levels of organization from atom to biosphere.

• determinism, or how all phenomena are predictable effects of causes.

• emergent properties that are easily predicted by examining their parts.

• emergent properties that cannot be predicted by examining their parts.

The expected outcome of an experiment is known as

• a scientific model.

• an experiment.

• prediction.

• a scientific theory or principle.

• experimental results.
