How this list was compiled

A list of 144 biology names written by Wheel of Teams on 2026-10-02 and filed in five groups: four of team names and one of group chat titles. Where a name bends a biology term, the line under it says what the term means. Each meaning follows the opening of that term's own English Wikipedia article, read on 2026-10-02 (for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humerus), text under CC BY-SA 4.0, in our own words. None was taken from a contest, a course, a textbook or a publisher, and any match with a real team is a coincidence. Compared by script the same day with every other list on this site: no name is repeated. Nothing was checked against a trademark register. Licence: own work
