    Study Notes

    Human Needs

    • Humans obtain food from plants and animals.
    • Typhoid and polio spread via the faecal-oral route. Preventing these diseases involves controlling air pollution, sanitation and hygiene, and controlling mosquitos.
    • Nerves transmit messages for body function.
    • Axons, side-by-side and enclosed in a sheath, form nerve cells.
    • Neurons transmit electrochemical messages in the form of waves.
    • The circulatory system moves blood throughout the body.
    • Cellular respiration needs oxygen and glucose. Byproducts are carbon dioxide, lactic acid, and alcohol.

    Physics Concepts

    • Distance traveled per unit of time is speed.
    • Aluminum has 13 electrons
    • There are five laws of motion.
    • There are 31 pairs of nerves in the human body.
    • Light waves, radio waves, and X-rays are examples of transverse waves.

    Plant Biology

    • Vascular bundles are found in every part of a plant, composed of xylem and phloem.
    • Xylem and phloem together with root hair cells are parts of plant vascular system.
    • A tube called a ureter is present arising from the kidneys to the urinary bladder.
    • The flat green portion of a leaf is a blade.

    Other Biology and Chemistry Concepts

    • The flat green part of a leaf is called the blade.
    • Filtering nitrogenous waste from blood occurs in the kidneys.
    • Respiration, involving oxygen, is called aerobic if it uses oxygen.
    • A human brain weighs between 1500 and 1600 grams.
    • Oxygen has 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons.
    • A human sperm has 23 chromosomes and an egg cell has 46 chromosomes.
    • The human heart has chambers which receive oxygen-rich blood from the lungs, these ventricles are the right and left ventricles.
    • All living organisms perform respiration sometimes during their life cycles.
    • Each DNA molecule is made from thousands of nucleotides.
    • The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons.
    • The major excretory organ is the kidney.

    Other Concepts

    • Reading, writing, driving, and speaking are voluntary actions, involuntary actions do not require thinking.
    • Germs can transmit from one person to another.
    • The center of the atom is called the nucleus.
    • The heart has chambers that receive oxygen-rich blood from the lungs: the right and left atria.
    • Plants respire all the time, not only during the day.
    • Nitrogenous waste is removed by the body through excretion.
    • The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood.
    • Plants use photosynthesis to create energy.
    • Organisms that can prepare their food are called autotrophs..
    • The periodic table has 7 horizontal rows.
    • Cooling agents in refrigerators include CFCs, and sulfur oxide.
    • Tiny vessels called capillaries branch off from arteries.
    • DNA sections that code for proteins are called genes.
    • The periodic table has 18 columns.
    • Hepatitis, and other diseases like Covid-19 and Dengue are caused by viruses.
    • Photosynthesis does not occur in leaves if chlorophyll is absent.
    • The brain has systems that control heartbeat, blood pressure, vomiting.

    Additional Concepts

    • Cell division produces cells called daughter cells from parent cells.
    • The main root of a primary root system is called a taproot.
    • The speed of an object with direction is velocity.
    • The smallest particle of an element is an atom.
    • Friction opposes motion between surfaces.
    • Biological processes include photosynthesis, respiration, and excretion.
    • Hand sanitizer kills germs, keeping skin safe.
    • Materials that trap air, like wool, are good insulators.
    • A solution is formed when a solid is dissolved in a liquid.
    • The liquid is called the solvent..
