# SCIENCE 8 - Newton's three laws of motion - work using constant force, power, gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, and elastic potential energy - the propagation of sound through solid, liquid, and gas some properties and characteristics of visible light - heat and temperature, and the effects of heat on the body - current, voltage, resistance relationship, electric power, electric energy, and home circuitry - the relationship between faults and earthquakes - the formation of typhoons and their movement within the PAR - characteristics of comets, meteors, and asteroids - the particle nature of matter as basis for explaining properties, physical changes, and structure of substances and mixtures - the identity of a substance according to it atomic structure - the periodic table of elements as an organizing tool to determine the chemical properties of elements - the digestive system and its interaction with the circulatory, respiratory, and excretory systems in providing the body with nutrients for energy - diseases that result from nutrient deficiency and ingestion of Harmful substances, and their prevention and treatment - how cells divide to produce new cells - meiosis as one of the processes producing genetic variations of the Mendelian Pattern of Inheritance - the concept of a species - the species as being further classified into a hierarchical taxonomic system - the one-way flow of energy and the cycling of materials in an ecosystem
