SCIENCE FINAL WADDUP
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are the six characteristics of a living thing | Cells, Energy, Grow and Repair, Waste, Reproduce and Adapt/Respond to Environment |
| Who first OBSERVED a LIVING cell? What did he observe? | Antone Van Leeuwenhoek and he observed bacteria and blood cell |
| How do you calculate magnification? | Eyepiece lens x Objective lens |
| What is the difference between multicellular and unicellular organisms? | Multicellular organisms consist of more than one cell and unicellular consist of only one cell |
| What is cellular respiration and what is the product of it? | Its the process in which food every is released and the end product is heat |
| What is photosynthesis and what is the product of it? | Its when plants make their food from sunlight and the end product is sugar |
| What are the vascular tissues in a plant? What about in a human? | In a plant, the vascular tissues are the phloem and xylem tissues and in an animal it is the circulatory system |
| What is the cell membrane? | The cell membrane is the protective "skin" of the cell that is selectively permeable |
| What is cytoplasm? | The jelly-like substance that flows around the inside of the cell and acts like blood in a human, delivering oxygen and nutrients |
| What is the nucleus? | The nucleus is like the cells brain, controlling everything it does. it is the most easily seen thing in a cell because it is large and dark |
| What is the vacuole? | It is pretty much the storage place of the cell where food, waste and other stuff is held until it is used or released |
| What is a cell wall and chloroplasts? | A cell wall is like a cell membrane but is much thicker and rigid which offers more protection and support. Chloroplasts is the place of the cell in which photosynthesis takes place. Both of these are only found in plant cells |

| What is alveoli? | Tiny air sacs in the lungs that refresh blood with oxygen as carbon dioxide is released |
| What is diabetes? | When the pancreas isn't producing enough insulin to control the level of blood sugars |
| Which circulatory system is known as the "silent killer" and why? | High blood pressure because there aren't any symptoms |
| What does the suffix "itis" mean? | Inflammation or infection |
| What are cilia? | small hairs in our respiratory passages that help capture and remove unwanted particles |
| THAT WAS CELLS AND SYSTEMS!! NOW ONTO... | MIX AND FLOW OF MATTER!!!!! |
| What is a solvent and a solute? | A solute in something that is added and dissolved. The solvent is what does the dissolving |
| What is the definition of solubility? | The amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent to create a saturated solution at a given temperature |
| Define saturated | when no more solute is able to be dissolved in a solvent at a given temperature |
| Define Unsaturated | when more solute could be dissolved in a solvent at a given temperature |
| Define supersaturated | when more solute is dissolved in a solvent that normal at a given temperature |
| What does the compressed gas whimis symbol look like? | Kinda like a tampon |

| Define distillation | a method of separating the parts of a liquid mixture |
| Define distillate | something formed by distillation |
| What is the effect of salt on the density of water? | The density of water would go up because the more particles in something, the more dense it is |
| What is the effect of salt on the buoyant force of water? | The buoyant force would go up because the extra salt particles will help hold up the load |
| As the density of a fluid increases, the buoyant force... | increases |
| What happens to the viscosity of a LIQUID when it is heated? When it is cooled? | When a liquid is heated, its viscosity decreases and when it is cooled, its viscosity increases |
| What happens to the viscosity of a GAS when it is heated? When it is cooled? | When a gas it heated, it viscosity increases and when it is cooled, its viscosity decreases |
| So that means... | Temperatures effect on viscosity of liquids and gases is opposite |
| As viscosity increases, flow rate... | decreases |
| Define density | the amount of a mass in a certain unit volume of a substance |
| For a substance to float in a fluid, the density of the substance has to be... | Less than the fluid |
| Define hydraulics | The study of pressure in liquids |
| RANDOM EMPTY CARD... | JUST IGNORE ME... |
| Define transparent | Allowing light to pass through |
| Define translucent | allowing some light to pass through |
| Define opaque | allowing no light to pass through |
| What is a ray of light? | A single line or narrow beam of light that can bounce off a surface it strikes |
| What is evidence that light travels in straight lines? | The ray model of light! also, because shadows! if light could curve around objects, there wouldn't be any shadows |
| What happens to a shadow when you move away from the light source? what if you move towards it? | if you move away from the light source, the shadow gets smaller and if you move closer to it, the shadow gets bigger |
| Define chemiluminescence | the emission of light resulting from chemical action and not involving heat |
| define bioluminescence | the emission of light produced by a chemical reaction inside the bodies of living creatures |
| define incandescence | the emission of light by heat |
| define fluorescence | the emission of light by a high energy, invisible ultraviolet light that is absorbed by the particles of an object and causes the object to glow |
| what causes refraction | when light travels through one medium to another. the next medium could either more or less dense (the law of refraction btw) |
| when light travels into a substance that is more dense it... | moves towards the line of normal |
| so that means that when light travels into a substance that is less dense it... | moves away from the line of normal |
| what is a mirage and how is it caused? | a mirage is when heat shimmers on the surface of something and causes you to see what looks like a pool of water, but really its just heat waves |
| What is an optical illusion | when your eyes see something but your brain can't make sense of it and create a different image |
| What are the NINE parts of the eye? | Retina, Ciliary Muscle, Lens, Iris, Pupil, Cornea, Aqueous Humour, Vitreous Humour, Optic Nerve |
| What are the two parts of a camera that are like the eye? | the diaphragm of the camera is like the iris and the aperture works like the pupil |
| What is far sightedness and what lens is used to correct it? | Far sightedness is when the image falls behind the retina and is fixed with a convex lens |
| What is near sightedness and what lens is used to correct it? | Near sightedness is when the image falls short of the retina and is fixed with a concave lens |
| what is a reflecting telescope? | a telescope having a concave mirror to collect rays of light from a distance object |
| What images do you see with a concave and convex mirror? | You see a larger image with a concave and smaller with a convex |
| how does a convex and concave lens move light? | a convex lens converges light and a concave lens diverges light |
| THAT WAS LIGHT AND OPTICS!!! NOW ONTO... | FRESH AND SALT WATER SYSTEMS!!! |
| How is a glacier made? (in order) | New snow falls and over time become grainy pieces of ice because snow tends to rearrange itself. Then the grains begin to accumulate, melting and freezing again until a sheet of glacial ice is formed |

| What is mechanical advantage? | The ratio of how much force a machine puts out to the force that is put on the machine |
| What is a class 1 lever? | When the fulcrum is the middle and the load or effort force are on the sides |
