    Study Notes

    General Science ASVAB Study Guide

    • The chemical formula for water is H2O, which means it's composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
    • The heart is the organ responsible for pumping blood throughout the body, supplying it with oxygen and nutrients.
    • Plants make their own food through photosynthesis, a process in which they convert sunlight into chemical energy.
    • Food stores chemical energy, which can be converted into other forms of energy by the body.
    • The mitochondria is considered the "powerhouse" of the cell, responsible for producing energy through cellular respiration.
    • The Earth's atmosphere is primarily composed of nitrogen gas.
    • Glucose is a simple carbohydrate, unlike sucrose, starch, and cellulose, which are more complex.
    • The pH level of pure water is 7, which is neutral.
    • Evaporation is the process by which a liquid changes into a gas.
    • Vitamin D is primarily obtained through sunlight exposure, when the skin synthesizes it.
    • The largest organ in the human body is the skin.
    • Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
    • Plant leaves are responsible for photosynthesis.
    • DNA formation requires the element carbon.
    • Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body.
    • Photosynthesis primarily produces oxygen gas.
