Study Notes
Taxonomy
- Animals are classified into 5 kingdoms: Animalia, Fungi, Plants, Multi-cellular Protist, and Bacteria.
- The 8 levels of organization in taxonomy are: Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species, and Domain.
- The classification of humans is: Kingdom - Animalia, Phylum - Chordata, Class - Mammalia, Genus - Homo, and Species - Sapiens.
Scientific Method
- The scientific method involves identifying a problem, formulating a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis, analyzing results, and formulating conclusions.
- A hypothesis should be formulated using the IFTAF (If, Then, And, For) method.
- The scientific method is based on empirical data, which means it relies on observations and evidence.
Characteristics of Scientific Method
- The scientific method is empirical, meaning it relies on evidence and observations.
- It is replicable, meaning the results can be reproduced by others.
- It is provisional, meaning the results are open to revision.
- It is objective, meaning the results are not influenced by personal biases.
- It is systematic, meaning it follows a step-by-step approach.
Flower Anatomy
- The pistil is the female organ of plants.
- The stamen is the male organ of plants.
- A perfect flower contains both pistil and stamen.
- A complete flower contains petals and sepals.
- Angiosperms are plants that produce seeds enclosed within fruits.
- Gymnosperms are plants that produce naked seeds.
Monocots vs Dicots
- Monocots include sugarcane, pineapple, and rice.
- Dicots include cassava and dicotyledonous plants.
Plant Structures
- Stomata are the breathing areas of plants.
- Chlorophyll is the green pigment responsible for the green color of plants.
- Chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis.
- Photosynthesis is the process where light energy is transformed into chemical energy.
- Glucose is the waste product of photosynthesis.
