Study Notes
Science
-
Definition: Systematic study of the natural world through observation and experimentation.
-
Branches:
- Biology: Study of living organisms and life processes.
- Chemistry: Study of matter, its properties, composition, and changes.
- Physics: Study of matter, energy, force, and motion.
- Earth Science: Study of the Earth and its processes, including geology and meteorology.
-
Scientific Method:
- Observation: Gather data and notice patterns.
- Hypothesis: Form a testable explanation.
- Experimentation: Conduct experiments to test the hypothesis.
- Analysis: Analyze data to draw conclusions.
- Report: Share findings with the scientific community.
English
-
Definition: A Germanic language originating in England, now a global lingua franca.
-
Components:
- Grammar: Rules governing word structure and sentence formation.
- Vocabulary: Set of words recognizable to a language user.
- Literature: Written works such as novels, poems, and plays.
-
Literary Devices:
- Metaphor: Comparison without using "like" or "as".
- Simile: Comparison using "like" or "as".
- Alliteration: Repetition of initial consonant sounds.
- Imagery: Descriptive language that appeals to the senses.
Maths
-
Definition: Abstract science of number, quantity, and space, either as abstract concepts or applied to other fields.
-
Branches:
- Arithmetic: Study of numbers, their properties, and operations.
- Algebra: Study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating them.
- Geometry: Study of shapes, sizes, and properties of space.
- Calculus: Study of change in the form of derivatives and integrals.
-
Key Concepts:
- Prime Number: A natural number greater than 1 with no positive divisors other than 1 and itself.
- Theorem: A statement that has been proven based on previously established statements.
- Function: A relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs.
Interconnections
- Science and Maths: Maths is essential for scientific measurement, data analysis, and modeling theories.
- English in Science and Maths: Communication of concepts, writing research papers, and explaining complex ideas requires strong English skills.
Science
- The systematic study of the natural world through observation and experimentation.
- Biology examines living organisms and their functions.
- Chemistry focuses on matter, its composition, and transformations.
- Physics investigates matter, energy, force, and motion.
- Earth Science delves into Earth's structures, processes, and phenomena, including geology and meteorology.
- The Scientific Method is a systematic approach to scientific inquiry:
- Observation involves gathering data and recognizing patterns.
- Hypothesis proposes a testable explanation for an observation.
- Experimentation tests the hypothesis through controlled trials.
- Analysis evaluates data collected during the experiment.
- Report communicates findings to the scientific community.
English
- English is a Germanic language originating in England, now widely recognized as a global lingua franca.
- Grammar dictates the structure and formation of words and sentences.
- Vocabulary comprises the set of words understood by a language user.
- Literature encompasses written works in the English language, including novels, poems, and plays.
-
Literary Devices enhance the expressiveness of writing:
- Metaphor compares two things without using "like" or "as".
- Simile compares two things using "like" or "as".
- Alliteration involves repeating initial consonant sounds.
- Imagery uses descriptive language that appeals to the senses.
Maths
- Maths is an abstract science that explores numbers, quantities, and spatial relationships.
- Arithmetic focuses on numbers, their properties, and operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
- Algebra utilizes mathematical symbols and rules to manipulate and solve equations.
- Geometry studies shapes, sizes, and properties of space.
- Calculus analyzes change through derivatives and integrals.
- Key concepts in mathematics include:
- Prime Numbers are natural numbers greater than 1, divisible only by 1 and themselves.
- Theorems are statements proven based on existing knowledge.
- Functions relate sets of inputs to permissible outputs.
Interconnections
- Maths provides the framework for scientific measurement, data analysis, and modeling theories in Science.
- English plays a vital role in communicating scientific and mathematical concepts, writing research papers, and effectively explaining complex ideas in both fields.
