Question | Answer |
nucleus | controls all the cell's activities |
cell membrane | holds cell in place |
cytoplasm | controls what enters and leaves |
vacuole | stores material like wastes |
mitochondria | produce energy |
cell wall | protects and supports the plant cell |
chloroplast | traps light energy |
Diffusion | movement of the amount of a substance from an area of higher concentration to a area of lower concentration(temperature may change the speed) |
Osmosis | is the diffusion of water |
respiratory system | controls breathing |
skeletal system | has bones that support the body and work with muscle to move the body |
nervous system | has nerves that detect, signal, and respond to changes in the enviroment |
excretory system | to remove liquid and gas waste |
endocrine system | makes hormones |
digestive system | takes in and break down food, absorbs nutrients and get rid of solid waste |
integumentary system | protects the body and includes skin, hair and nails |
reproductive system | include organs to produce offspring |
immune system | defends the body against infection |
muscular system | has muscles that work with bones to move the body |
circulatory system | moves blood, gases, nutrients and wastes |
carbohydrates | is the fastest source of energy (bread, rice) |
proteins | helps build muscles, skin, nails and hair (fish and nuts are some examples) |
fat | use to build cell membrane and can be save in body as energy |
Innate immune response | quick, general and non specific. WHich means it responses when the body recognize the invader. Examples are, inflammation and phagocytes (white blood cells) |
Acquired immune response | The phagocytes send a signal to helper T cell to find the specific B cell to defeat this invader. B cell launches antibody to provide antigen to spread. If it doesn't kill them, your body finally activates killer T cells, which destroy everything. |
Antibodies | Made by B cells to stick on the antigens, providing them to spread. |
Antigen | Unrecognized pathogens |
Pathogen | Invaders of our body |
Allergen | Causes allergy |
Law of reflection | The angle of incidence is the same as the angle of reflection |
Order of the electromagnetic spectrum | Radio->micro->infrared->visible->UV->X-ray->Gamma |
Visible spectrum | ROYGBIV |
Primary colors | Red, yellow, blue |
Refraction | Bending of light |
Crest | Top of a wave |
Trough | Bottom of a wave |
Wavelength | Distance from crest to crest, trough and trough ,and wave to wave |
Amplitude | Height of wave |
Rest position | A flat line to indicate the curves of the wave |
Compression wave | Force moves back and forth |
Transverse wave | Forces moves up and down |
Translucent | Around half of the light will go through |
Transparent | All the light could go through |
Opaque | No light can go through |
Pupil | the black circle in your eye |
Iris | the colored ring around your eye |
Sclera | The white part of your eye |
Cornea | Refracts the light to hit the back your eye |
Retina | Back of your eye |
Lens | Fine tune the image seen by your light |
Optic nerve | receive the image from your eyes |
Blind spot | where the optic nerve is connected to the retina |
Rod cells | Cells that provide us the ability to see shades of grey |
Cone cells | Cells that provide us the ability to see colors |
