Cells
a scientific theory first formulated in the mid-nineteenth century, that living organisms are made up of cells, that they are basic structural/organizational unit of all organisms, and that all cells chrome from pre-existing cells
Cell Theory
when light bounces off an object
Light Reflection
is a set of physical components that convert an input motion and force into a desired output motion and force
Mechanical System
a slowing moving mass or river of ice formed by the accumulation and compaction of snow on mountains or near the poles
Glacier
This is used to keep big groups organized into smaller groups so we can understand the bigger group better
Classification Systems
A membrane-bound organelle that contains the cell’s chromosomes
Nucleus
the redirection of a wave as it passes from one medium to another
Light Refraction
is a influence that can change the motion of an object
Force
an area or ridge of land that separates waters flowing to different rivers, basins, or seas
Water Shed
What are the 5 kingdoms of living things?
Animals, plants, fungi, protists, and monera
A process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one thus equalizing the concentrations on each side of the membrane.
Osmosis
is a naturally-occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays bend via refraction to produce a displace image of distant objects or the sky
Mirage
a comparison of the energy output to the energy input in a given system
Efficiency
Type of the water in oceans and seas
Saltwater
What is the difference between plants and animals
Plants do not move while animals do. Animals have no chloroplasts, and plants have a cell wall.
Cells that make up a plant that have organelles a plant cell needs to survive
Plant Cell
a substance allowing some light, but not detailed shapes, to pass though; semitransparent.
Translucent
allows humans to perform tasks much easier in terms of the force they need to apply
Mechanical Advantage
water that is not salty and not found in oceans or seas
Freshwater
What states of mater are water found?
Liquid, solid, gas
cells that make up an animal that have organelles an animal cell news to survive
Animal cell
This type of lens is thicker at the centre and thinner at the edges
Convex Lense
the number of goods that can be produced during a given period of time
Rate of Production
the climate of a very small or restricted area, especially when this differs form the climate of the surrounding area.
microclimate
What is a well?
A well is used in rural areas to pump water from the groundwater aquifers so that homes can have water
