1.

​ Human Body Systems Study Guide:


●​ Circulatory System: Understand the heart's structure and function, including arteries,
veins, and capillaries.
●​ Respiratory System: Learn how gas exchange occurs in the alveoli and the role of
the diaphragm.
●​ Digestive System: Study the process of digestion from ingestion to absorption in
organs like the stomach and intestines.
●​ Nervous System: Explore the brain, spinal cord, neurons, and how signals travel
through the body.
●​ Skeletal and Muscular Systems: Examine bones, joints, and muscle types (skeletal,
smooth, cardiac).

2.​ DNA and Genetics Study Guide:


●​ Learn the structure of DNA: double helix, nucleotide components (sugar, phosphate,
nitrogen base).
●​ Understand the base-pairing rules (A-T, C-G) and the process of DNA replication.
●​ Explore the roles of mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA in protein synthesis (transcription and
translation).
●​ Study inheritance patterns: dominant and recessive traits, Punnett squares, and
Mendelian genetics.
●​ Explore mutations and their effects on genetic variation.

3. Chemical Reactions Study Guide:

●​ Understand the components of a chemical reaction: reactants, products, and the


reaction arrow.
●​ Learn how to balance chemical equations to conserve mass.
●​ Study types of reactions: synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, double
replacement, and combustion.
●​ Explore the concepts of exothermic and endothermic reactions.
●​ Understand reaction rates, catalysts, and the effect of temperature and concentration
on reaction speed.

4. Newton's Laws of Motion Study Guide:

●​ First Law (Law of Inertia): An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion
stays in motion unless acted on by an external force.
●​ Second Law (F = ma): Force equals mass times acceleration. Explore units of force
(Newtons) and solve problems involving mass, acceleration, and force.
●​ Third Law (Action-Reaction): For every action, there is an equal and opposite
reaction.
●​ Apply these laws to real-world scenarios like car crashes, rockets, and sports.

5. Periodic Table Study Guide:

●​ Learn how elements are arranged by increasing atomic number and grouped into
periods and families based on properties.
●​ Understand the significance of groups (e.g., alkali metals, halogens, noble gases)
and periodic trends (atomic radius, electronegativity, ionization energy).
●​ Explore how electron configurations determine chemical reactivity.
●​ Study the differences between metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.
