Can't we all just get along
Relationship between two or more organisms of different species where all benefit from the association
mutualism
Number of protons in an atom
atomic number
Amount of heat energy required to increase temperature
heat capacity
Suggested, testable answer to well-defined scientific question or a possible, testable explanation for observations
hypothesis
Part of microscope you look through
eyepiece
Relationship bw 2 organisms of different species - one benefits & the other is neither harmed or benefitted.
commensalism
element
Attractive force that holds molecules of different substances together
adhesion
Variable manipulated by the experimenter
independent variable
metal tubes that contain lenses of varying powers, usually: 4x, 10x, 40x
objectives
Relationship b/w 2 organisms of diff. species - one benefits and other is harmed.
parasitism
Sum of protons and neutrons in an atom
atomic mass
Lacking any affinity to wear; water fearing
hydrophobic
Group in an experiment that experiences no manipulation
control group
heavy structure at the bottom which supports it and makes it steady
base
Close relathionship b/w 2+ species where at least one benefits
symbiosis
chemical bond formed by the sharing of electrons between two or more atoms
covalent
Solution in which water is the solvent
aqueous solution
Explanation of some part of the natural world that has been thoroughly tested and is supported by significant evidence from observations and experiments.
scientific theory
Platform just below the objectives and above light source. Specimen is placed here.
stage
Calling "them" "animalcules or cavorting beasties". 1st to discover microorganisms using microscope. Father of microbiology
Van Leeuwenhoek
Energy needed to get reactions started
activation energy
Attractive force that holds molecules of same substance together
cohesion
DOUBLE substance that alters speed of chemical reaction but is not used up in the process
catalyst
Use first when focusing. Does not make image as sharp as can be.
