What is the photosynthesis equation: |
H₂0 + CO₂ + Energy > Light = Sugar + H₂0 + O₂ |
|
What is the cellular respiration equation: |
O₂ + H₂0 + Sugar = Energy > Light + CO₂ + H₂0 |
|
Cell Membrane |
Separates the cell from the outside world. (The thin elastic like skin around the cell.) IT IS SELECTIVE ABOUT WHAT GOES IN THE CELL |
|
Nucleus |
The Control centre of cell. (Holds all instruction on how the cell was made and how it functions) |
|
Nuclear Membrane |
The elastic like skin around the nucleus. IT IS SELECTIVE ABOUT WHAT GOES IN THE NUCLEUS |
|
MITOCHONDRIA (singular) MITOCHONDRION (plural) |
The powerhouse of the cell. Burns the sugar into energy |
|
Whats a living thing? |
Eat Breath Excrete Respond to their environment Grow Move Reproduce and eventually die |
|
Vacuole |
stores the food, water, or waste in the cell. Floats in the cytoplasm. GINORMOUS FOR A PLANT CELL |
|
Lysosomes |
The container for the digestive enzymes that help break down food. ONLY FOR AN ANIMAL CELL |
|
cytoplasm |
the jelly-like substance inside a cell |
|
Chloroplast |
the football shaped organelle that breaks carbon (CO₂) and water (H₂0) into smaller parts using the suns energy and resembling them into sugar chains. |
|
Chlorophyll |
The liquid inside the chloroplast thats green- the result of photosynthesis that makes it occur |
|
Cell Wall |
The structural support to allow them to move (chase the sun) and stand upright |
|
Neutron |
Nuetrally charged particle that is in the nucleus |
|
Proton |
positive charged particle that is in the nucleus |
|
nucleus |
centre of atom that is a vault with protons and neutron |
|
electron |
negatively charged particle |
|
stable octet |
when the valence shell of the electron configuration has 8 electrons |
|
covalent bonding |
the atoms share there electrons and stay together |
|
ionic bonding |
one atom gives up an electron and the other atom gain an electron |
|
cathion |
positive charged ion (the part that loses the electron in ionic bonding) |
|
anion |
negative charged ion (the part that gains the electron in ionic bonding) |
|
valence shell |
the outer shell of the electron configuration |
|
noble gases |
a family on the periodic table of the elements that already has there stable octet |
|
metals |
conductors |
|
non metals |
insulators |
|
conductors |
support the flow of electron movement |
|
insulator |
stops the flow of electron movement |
|
alkali metals |
has 1electron in the outer valence shell |
|
alkaline earth metals |
has 2 electrons in its outer valence shell |
|
halogens |
has 7 electrons in the outer valence shell |
|
hydrogen family |
a family with just hydrogen, with one outer valence shell (first shell with only 2 electrons) |
|
in series circuit |
When the loads depend on each other |
|
parallel circuit |
when the load don't depend on each other |
|
open circuit |
when the circuit is open stopping the flow of electrons |
|
closed circuit |
when the circuit is closed continuing the flow of electrons |
|
anode |
the negative part of a battery |
|
cathode |
the positive part of battery |
|
voltage |
a unit of measurement- measuring volts, how fast the flow of electrons is |
|
current |
how many electrons are in the flow of electrons- measured in amps |
|
resistance |
measured in ohms- it is like an insulator> once it hits the insulator it starts burning electricity-- the more resistance the more energy |
|
current electricity |
battery electricity |
|
static electricity |
lightning electricity |
|
induction |
process of making something with a neutral charge have a charge. |
|
Law of Conservation of Atoms/ Mass |
This law states that atoms cannot disappear or be created, only reused
|
|
Kinetic Molecular Theory |
This theory states that when atoms are heated they move creating space |
|
Law of Electric Charges |
opposites attract, like charges repel |
|
law of conservation of energy |
law states that energy can only be transformed. |
|
Neutons 3rd Law |
for every action there is a re-action |
|
conduction |
the domino effect in solids that transfers heat (works best in: solids, liquids, gasses, vacuum) |
|
convection |
The movement of heat- when hot atoms go up and cold atoms go down (like macaroni). Works best in: gasses, liquids, solids, vacuum |
|
radiation |
when light is transformed into heat and an object absorbs colour. ROYGBIV- if an object is red it absorbs everything but red |
|
load |
light,buzzer ect. |
|
