Pointers To Review Physical Science Pat

1. This document provides definitions and descriptions of key concepts in physical science and earth and life science. It defines terms like element, compound, homogeneous mixture, heterogeneous mixture, and states of matter. It also describes atomic theory, the law of conservation of matter, and mass versus weight. Additionally, it outlines several areas of biology like epidemiology, immunology, genetics, and bioenergetics. It provides examples of cell types and their specialized structures related to function.

POINTERS TO REVIEW PHYSICAL SCIENCE PAT2

1. He is best known for proposing the modern atomic theory and about
his research into colour blindness?
2. Matter is defined as anything that occupies space and has mass,
and it is all around us… matter
3. is a gaseous state of matter… plasma
that contains appreciable numbers of electrically charged particles
4. The___ of an object is a measure of the amount of matter in it.
mass
5. This force is directly proportional to the mass of the object.. weight
6. It states that there is
no detectable change in the total quantity of matter present when
matter converts from one type to another (a
chemical change) or changes among solid, liquid, or gaseous states (a
physical change). law of conservation of matter
7. atom is the smallest particle of an element that has the properties
of that element and can enter into a
chemical combination.
8. Pure substances that cannot be broken
down into simpler substances by chemical changes are called…
elements
9. It has a constant composition and have exactly the same makeup
and properties. Pure substance
10. Is composed of two or more types of matter that can be present in
varying amounts and can be separated by physical changes, such as
evaporation… Mixture
11. gas
state in which matter has neither definite volume nor shape
12. liquid
state of matter that has a definite volume but indefinite shape
13. homogeneous mixture
It is also a solution combination of substances with a composition that
is uniform throughout
14. Many compounds break down when heated. True
15. Oil and vinegar salad dressing is a homogeneous mixture because
its composition is not uniform throughout. False
16. A commercial sports drink is
a heterogeneous mixture because its composition is uniform
throughout. False
17. A given substance can be classified as a homogeneous mixture, a
heterogeneous mixture, a compound, or an element. True
18. A fuel cell generates electrical energy from hydrogen and oxygen
via an electrochemical process and produces only water as the waste
product. True

EARTH AND LIFE SCIENCE


1. Epidemiology How diseases arise and spread
2. Immunology Mechanisms inside organisms that protect them from
disease and infection
3. Genetics Genetic makeup of living organisms and heredity
4. Bioenergetics is a broad discipline of biochemistry that focuses on
energy transformation within living organisms, and the efficiency of
energy transfers between different organisms.
5. Transmission electron microscopes
6. Scanning electron microscopes (SEM), which pass a beam of
electrons across the surface of something, show the details of the
shapes of surfaces, giving a 3D image.
7. All organisms are composed of cells.
8 Cells are alive and the basic living units of organization in all
organisms.
9. All cells come from other cells.
10. Red blood cells are shaped with a pocket to increase their surface
area for absorbing and releasing oxygen .
11. Nerve cells, which can quickly transmit the sensation of touching a
hot stove to your brain, are elongated and stringy to allow them to
form a complex network with other nerve cells.
12. Skin cells are flat and fit tightly together.
13. Red Blood cells are specialized to carry oxygen in the blood
14. Neurons are shaped to conduct electrical impulses to many other
nerve cells
15. These epidermal cells make up the “skin” of plants. Note how the
cells fit tightly together.
16. Atom-molecules-organelle-cell-tissue-organ-organ system-
organism
