Study Notes

Human Food Sources

  • Humans obtain food from plants and animals.
  • Food can be derived from both plants and animals, hence, both options a and b are correct.

Distance Traveled per Unit of Time

  • The distance traveled per unit of time is called speed.

Number of Electrons in Aluminum

  • Aluminum has 13 electrons.

Laws of Motion

  • There are five laws of motion.

Pairs of Nerves in the Human Body

  • There are 31 pairs of nerves in the human body.

Examples of Light Waves

  • Light waves, radio waves, and X-rays are examples of transverse waves.

Body Systems (Blood Movement)

  • The circulatory system moves blood throughout the body.

Cellular Respiration

  • Cellular respiration needs glucose and oxygen to produce energy, releasing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts.

Light Travel in Air

  • Light travels in a straight line in air.

Vascular Bundles in Plants

  • Vascular bundles in plants are composed of xylem and phloem.
  • Xylem and phloem are present with root hair cells.

Tube Arising from Kidneys

  • The tube arising from each kidney and entering the urinary bladder is called the ureter.

Reading, Writing, etc

  • Actions such as reading, writing, driving, and speaking are voluntary.

Calculating Speed

  • Speed is calculated by dividing distance by time.

Gravity Discovery

  • Isaac Newton discovered gravity.

Material That Traps Air

  • Materials such as fur, wool, and sawdust trap air, and are good insulators.

Anemia

  • Anemia is a condition where the body cells are deficient in oxygen.
  • Anemia leads to tiredness and pale complexion.

Body Part Filtering Waste

  • The kidneys filter nitrogenous waste from the blood.

Removal of Nitrogenous Waste

  • The process of removing nitrogenous waste from the body is called excretion.

Right Atrium's Function

  • The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood.

Brain Weight

  • The average human brain weighs between 1500 and 1600 grams.

Oxygen Atoms

  • Oxygen atoms contain 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons.

Toothache Cause

  • A toothache is caused by a cavity in the tooth, where bacteria cause acid production that damages the enamel and nerves.

Use of Hand Sanitizer

  • Hand sanitizer kills harmful germs, keeping the skin safe.

Genetic Modification Objectives

  • Genetic modifications can improve plant qualities, such as making them disease-resistant, herbicide-resistant or increasing nutrient levels.

Dissolving Solids in Liquids

  • When a solid dissolves in a liquid, the liquid is called a solvent.

Heat Transfer in Fluids

  • Heat transfer caused by differences in density in fluids is called convection.

Atom Components

  • The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons.

Nephron Function

  • The nephron is responsible for forming urine.

Substances Changing on Heating

  • Substances that change shape or form when heated but recover their original state on cooling are undergoing physical changes.

Parts of Trachea

  • The trachea consists of bronchi, bronchioles and alveoli(air sacs), where gas exchange occurs.

Best Way to Prevent Rusting

  • Preventing metal rusting can be done effectively via galvanization.

Classifications of Humans

  • Humans are categorized as heterotrophs.

Substance Exchange in the Body

  • Exchanges of substances between blood and body cells take place in the capillaries.

Speed Calculation

  • Speed is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken to travel that distance.

Direction of Motion in Forces

  • Every action has an equal and opposite reaction that's acting in a parallel direction.

State Change Process

  • Processes like evaporation, sublimation and condensation involve changes in the state of matter (solid, liquid, gas).

Sensory Neuron Direction

  • Sensory neurons carry messages from sensory organs towards the brain.

Types of Immunity

  • Innate, adaptive, and passive are three main types of immunity.

Blood Component

  • Plasma is the liquid component of blood.

Cell Structure Controlling Cell Activity

  • The nucleus is the part of the cell that controls the activities within the cell.

Parasite Food Source

  • Parasites obtain food from a variety of sources, including plants, insects, animals, and other sources.

Important Constituent in Living Organisms

  • Proteins are essential for all living organisms.

Organisms Making Their Own Food

  • Organisms that can make their own food are called autotrophs.

Antibody Function

  • Antibodies are proteins in blood that help fight against foreign viruses and bacteria.

Controlling Heartbeat and Blood Pressure

  • The medulla oblongata controls involuntary functions such as heart rate and blood pressure.

Changes in Milk

  • The transformation of milk into yogurt involves irreversible changes and is a chemical process.
