Study Notes
Matter and States of Matter
- Matter is defined as anything that possesses mass and occupies space.
- States of matter include:
- Solid: Maintains a definite shape and volume.
- Liquid: Has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container.
- Gas: Has neither a definite shape nor volume, both are changeable.
Types of Energy
- Energy is the capacity to perform work or initiate movement of matter.
- Kinetic Energy: Energy that is active and in motion.
- Potential Energy: Energy stored due to position; inactive until released.
-
Forms of Energy:
- Chemical Energy: Stored in the bonds of chemical substances.
- Electrical Energy: Created by the movement of charged particles.
- Mechanical Energy: Directly involved in moving matter.
- Radiant/Electromagnetic Energy: Energy transmitted through electromagnetic waves.
Lymphatic and Immune System Functions
- Picks up excess fluid from tissues and returns it to the cardiovascular system.
- Identifies foreign invaders (pathogens) and mounts an immune response against them.
Respiratory System Functions
- Delivers oxygen (O₂) to the blood.
- Removes carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the blood and excretes it via the lungs.
- Plays a role in regulating blood acid/base balance.
Urinary, Gastrointestinal, and Reproductive Systems
-
Urinary System:
- Filters blood to remove waste products.
- Excretes wastes including electrolytes.
-
Gastrointestinal System:
- Absorbs nutrients from digested food into the bloodstream.
- Eliminates undigested and unabsorbed materials from the body.
-
Reproductive System:
- Produces sex hormones, including estrogen and progesterone in females, and testosterone in males.
- Generates sex cells: eggs in females and sperm in males.
- Contains anatomical structures that facilitate fertilization.
- Provides an incubatory environment for fetal development in females.
