What other themes of biology apply to this situation?

Social bees survive by collecting nectar or pollen from flowers, pollinating flowers in the process. They must keep their hives at a constant temperature, moisture, and oxygen content for their larvae to develop. One way they do this is by beating their wings to circulate air.

I have to write a 1-2 paragraph essay covering 5 of the 7 themes of biology as they relate to this example

The themes I have chosen to write about are: reproduction, heredity, homeostasis, evolution, but I need one more. Which one could I choose and why?

Thank you :)
Interdependence how so? Isn’t that between different organisms?

biology!!!?

A certain bacteria is capable of reproducing by binary fission once every half hour. Suppose you placed a single bacteria in an enviroment where it would reproduce at this rate. How many bacteria would be present after 3 hours? After 12 hours? What factor might limit how long this rate of reproduction could continue?

I don’t get this question!! Can someone help me!!! ( Thanks)
