Flashcards

Forces slowing a car

Friction and air resistance are the forces that slow a moving car down.

Photosynthesis equation

Carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen. The equation shows the reactants and products in photosynthesis.

Alimentary Canal part A

The food pipe (esophagus) is a part of the alimentary canal.

Pressure and area

Pressure is force distributed over an area. A smaller area means a larger pressure for a given force.

Study Notes

Forces Slowing a Car

  • A car slowing down is due to friction and air resistance.
  • Friction and air resistance are the forces slowing the car.

Photosynthesis Word Equation

  • Carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen
  • The equation represents the process plants use to make food.

Parts of a Plant and Their Functions

  • Roots: Absorption of water and minerals
  • Stem: Transport of water and minerals
  • Leaves: Photosynthesis
  • Flower: Reproduction

Alimentary Canal Organs and Functions

  • Stomach: Food is chewed into smaller pieces and mixed into a creamy liquid.
  • Small Intestine: Digests proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, and absorbs water, amino acids, sugars, and fatty acids.
  • Large Intestine: Absorbs water.

Pressure and Force

  • Force acts on the area.
  • Larger area means less pressure
  • Smaller area means higher pressure.
  • Snowshoes use a larger area, reducing pressure and preventing sinking into snow.
  • Sharp knives use a smaller area for a higher pressure, making cutting easier.

Poor Diet and Health Problems

  • Too much sugar: Heart disease, tooth decay
  • Too much fat: Heart disease
  • Too much salt: High blood pressure
  • Too little protein: Poor growth
  • Too little carbohydrate: Little energy, poor growth

Fruit Fat and Fiber Content

  • Fruits and their fat content (in grams): Apricot (0.1), Banana (0.1), Kiwi fruit (0.0), Orange (0.1), Pineapple (0.1), Strawberry (0.0)
  • Fruits and their fiber content (in grams): Apricot (1.2), Banana (3.1), Kiwi fruit (2.6), Orange (2.4), Pineapple (13.8), Strawberry (0.6)
  • Fruits with highest fiber: Pineapple and banana
  • Importance of fiber: Fiber reduces constipation.
