Mammoth Memory

The characteristics and classification of living things

Here's a really quick way of testing if you've learned the meanings of the key words in this section. Look at the key word on the card and see if you can remember its definition.

If you get stuck, you can be shown the mnemonic to reveal an image that should help you remember.

To check if you're right, or remind you if you've forgotten, press the card to flip it.

Go through the whole list to see how many definitions you can recall. Revisit any that you had difficulty remembering until you're confident you can recall all of them.
