Study Notes
Chemical and Physical Changes
- A chemical change results in the formation of new substances, often seen in reactions like combustion or rusting.
- A physical change alters the form or appearance of a substance without changing its chemical identity; examples include melting ice or dissolving sugar in water.
Forms of Energy
- Energy exists in multiple forms, such as kinetic, potential, thermal, chemical, and electrical.
- An example of something that is NOT energy could be matter, which consists of physical substances.
Cell Functions
- The nucleus is the control center of a cell, housing the cell's DNA and regulating gene expression, growth, and reproduction.
- It plays a critical role in cell division and the overall management of cellular activities.
Properties of Matter
- Matter is characterized by properties such as mass, volume, and density.
- A characteristic that is NOT a property of matter may include aspects like temperature or color changes, which are not intrinsic properties.
Role of Chlorophyll
- Chlorophyll is a pigment essential for photosynthesis in plants, allowing them to absorb light energy.
- It primarily captures light from the sun, converting it into chemical energy in the form of glucose, which fuels plant growth and metabolism.
