– Higher temperatures will (usually) increase reaction rate, colder temperatures will (usually) decrease reaction rate. – Amoebas: unicellular, have a nucleus, lack cell wall – Trophic level: the higher in a food chain an organism is, the higher its trophic level is. Producers have a lower trophic level than consumers. – Accuracy vs. Precision in[…]
– DNA undergoes transcription to become RNA. RNA undergoes translation to become protein. – Ribosomes contain RNA – Proteins are large molecules with smaller amino acids in them. – The nucleus of a cell contains chromosomes. The chromosomes have DNA wrapped in proteins.
The center of an atom is a nucleus. In the nucleus, there are 2 subatomic particles: protons (positive charge) and neutrons (neutral charge). Outside of the nucleus are electrons. The energy of an electron is in shells. An atom is a single nucleus with a positive charge surrounded by a cloud of negatively charged electrons.[…]
A circuit is a complete path that electricity flows through. There is a source of electricity (battery). Conductors are the materials that allow electric current to pass through them easily. Conductors like the positive and negative ends of a battery. In a closed circuit, the electricity flows without any interruptions. Ohm’s Law: Voltage (V); Current[…]
Types of Electronic Bonds 1. Covalent bonds – 2 or more elements share electrons (ex: H2O) 2. Ionic bonds – strongest bonding. One element takes an electron from another molecule (ex: NaCl) 3. Hydrogen bonds – weakest form of bonding. Hydrogen atom interacts with an electronegative atom like nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine
1. Newton’s First Law: An object that is at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts upon it. An object that is in motion will not change its velocity unless a force acts upon it. 2. Newton’s Second Law: Force = mass * acceleration. The second law states that the rate of change[…]
