Machines make work easier by reducing the amount of force needed. A machine transfers the input force applied over a greater distance to increase the output force. This allows the same amount of work to be done with less input force. For example, a screwdriver acts as a lever to pry open a paint can lid, applying a smaller force over a greater distance to generate a larger output force on the lid.
The cell membrane (also known as the plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane) is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment. The cell membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and controls the movement of substances in and out of cells.The basic function of the cell membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. It consists of the phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. Cell membranes are involved in a variety of cellular processes such as cell adhesion, ion conductivity and cell signalling and serve as the attachment surface for several extracellular structures, including the cell wall, glycocalyx, and intracellular cytoskeleton.
The document discusses the basic structure and components of cells. It defines cells as the fundamental unit of life and notes they were first discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665. It describes unicellular organisms that are single cells and multicellular organisms composed of many cells. The key components of cells discussed include the plasma membrane, cell wall in plant cells, nucleus containing DNA and chromosomes, and cytoplasm containing organelles.

Lysosomes are spherical organelles found only in animal cells that contain hydrolytic enzymes. They function as the waste disposal system for the cell by digesting unwanted materials through intracellular digestion. Lysosomes are bound by a single lipid membrane that protects the cell from the digestive enzymes within. They receive their enzymes from the rough endoplasmic reticulum and are produced by the Golgi apparatus. A lack of proper lysosome function can lead to a buildup of waste and cell death.
This document discusses different types of cell transport mechanisms, including passive transport (diffusion and facilitated diffusion) and active transport. Passive transport involves the diffusion of substances across the cell membrane down their concentration gradient without cellular energy expenditure. Active transport requires cellular energy and transports substances against their concentration gradient using transmembrane protein pumps and channels. Osmosis, a type of facilitated diffusion, allows for the diffusion of water across the cell membrane through water channel proteins. The document provides examples and diagrams to explain these transport mechanisms.

Module 11 work, energy, power and machinesdionesioable
This module discusses work, energy, power, and machines. It contains three lessons that define work, explore the concepts of kinetic and potential energy, and examine how machines can help do work by multiplying force. The module objectives are to understand scientific definitions of work and energy, calculate work, kinetic energy, and potential energy, and analyze the mechanical advantages and efficiencies of simple machines. Learning activities include demonstrations of work, energy, and machines to reinforce the concepts.
Machines use forces to do work by transferring energy to objects. Work is calculated as the force applied multiplied by the distance moved in the direction of the force. A machine provides mechanical advantage by allowing a smaller input force to produce a larger output force, making tasks easier. Levers are an example of a simple machine that can multiply force - the mechanical advantage is the ratio of the load force to effort force, which is greater than one if the distance the effort acts is greater than the distance the load moves. This means the effort force can be less than the load, reducing the amount of force needed to do the work.
This document outlines objectives and concepts related to work, power, and energy. It defines work as the product of force and displacement when they are in the same direction. It introduces kinetic energy and potential energy, and discusses how the conservation of mechanical energy applies to situations where energy is transferred between kinetic and potential forms. Power is defined as the rate at which work is done. Examples are provided to demonstrate calculations of work, kinetic energy, potential energy, and power.
This document covers concepts related to work, energy, and power.

Interactive textbook ch. 13 chemical bondingtiffanysci
Ionic bonds form when valence electrons are transferred from metal atoms to nonmetal atoms, resulting in positively charged metal ions and negatively charged nonmetal ions that are attracted to each other. Metal atoms easily lose electrons to achieve stable full outer energy levels, while nonmetal atoms gain electrons for the same reason. The ions associate in repeating three-dimensional crystal lattices to form solid ionic compounds that are brittle with high melting points and often dissolve in water.
The document summarizes key aspects of the periodic table, including:
1) Mendeleev arranged elements on cards based on properties and discovered a repeating pattern when ordered by atomic mass, leading to the creation of the periodic table.
2) The periodic table shows elements arranged in order of atomic number and classified as metals, nonmetals, and metalloids, with metals having properties like conductivity.
3) The modern periodic table has rows called periods and columns called groups that show repeating trends in properties across and down the table.

1) The atomic theory has changed over time as scientists gathered new evidence and information. John Dalton proposed the first scientific atomic theory in 1803, stating that all matter is made of atoms that cannot be created, destroyed, or divided.
2) In the late 19th century, scientists like J.J. Thomson discovered smaller particles called electrons within atoms. Thomson proposed the "plum pudding" model where electrons were scattered throughout the atom.
3) Ernest Rutherford's gold foil experiment in 1909 showed that atoms have a small, dense nucleus at their center. This led to Rutherford's nuclear model of the atom. Niels Bohr later incorporated electron orbits into this model.

Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of particles that make up a substance. Heat is the transfer of thermal energy between objects at different temperatures - it always flows from warmer objects to cooler ones. Thermal energy can be transferred through three processes: conduction (direct contact), convection (transfer of heat by a moving fluid like air or water), and radiation (transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves). Good conductors allow easy transfer of thermal energy through conduction, while insulators inhibit such transfer.

Forces have both direction and size. A net force is determined by adding all forces acting on an object. A balanced net force of 0 N means the object will not change its motion, while an unbalanced net force not equal to 0 N will cause a change in the object's motion. Examples given include a chair with balanced forces so it does not move, and a soccer ball kicked with an unbalanced force that changes its motion.
This document provides an overview of elements, compounds, and mixtures. It begins by defining an element as a pure substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances. Elements are classified as metals, nonmetals, or metalloids based on their physical properties. Compounds are then defined as pure substances composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together in specific ratios. Compounds have unique physical and chemical properties that differ from their component elements. The document concludes by explaining that mixtures are physical combinations of elements or compounds that maintain their individual identities and can typically be separated.

Density is a physical property that describes how mass and volume are related in an object. It is calculated by dividing an object's mass by its volume. Knowing an object's density can help identify it, as different substances have different characteristic densities. For example, a golf ball has a higher density than a ping pong ball of similar size because it contains more mass in the same volume. Density is measured in units of mass per unit volume, such as grams per cubic centimeter.

2) It explains that electromagnetic waves, including visible light, transfer energy and have different wavelengths and frequencies, though all travel at the same speed in a vacuum.
3) Radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, visible light, ultraviolet light, and other types of electromagnetic waves are described along with their common uses such as broadcasting, communication, heating food, night vision, and more.
Interactive Textbook Ch. 21 The Nature of Soundtiffanysci
1) Sound travels faster through solids than liquids or gases, and the speed depends on the temperature of the medium. The speed of sound in air is around 343 m/s.
2) The pitch of a sound depends on its frequency, which is measured in Hertz. Higher frequencies mean a higher pitch. Humans can only hear sounds within a certain frequency range.
3) The Doppler effect causes changes in the perceived pitch of a sound source depending on whether the source is moving towards or away from the listener. This explains why an ambulance siren sounds higher in pitch as it approaches.
Interactive Textbook Ch. 20 The Energy of Wavestiffanysci
1. The document discusses key properties of waves including amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and speed. It defines each property and explains how it relates to the energy carried by a wave.
2. Amplitude is the maximum distance of vibration from the rest position, and waves with larger amplitudes carry more energy since they require more energy to form. Wavelength is the distance between two identical points on waves, and waves with shorter wavelengths have more energy.
3. Frequency is the number of waves passing a point per unit time, measured in Hertz. Higher frequency waves have more energy than lower frequency ones. Wave speed depends on the medium and can be calculated using the equation that relates speed, wavelength, and frequency.

When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptxMAGOTI ERNEST
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).
Unlocking the mysteries of reproduction: Exploring fecundity and gonadosomati...AbdullaAlAsif1
The pygmy halfbeak Dermogenys colletei, is known for its viviparous nature, this presents an intriguing case of relatively low fecundity, raising questions about potential compensatory reproductive strategies employed by this species. Our study delves into the examination of fecundity and the Gonadosomatic Index (GSI) in the Pygmy Halfbeak, D. colletei (Meisner, 2001), an intriguing viviparous fish indigenous to Sarawak, Borneo. We hypothesize that the Pygmy halfbeak, D. colletei, may exhibit unique reproductive adaptations to offset its low fecundity, thus enhancing its survival and fitness. To address this, we conducted a comprehensive study utilizing 28 mature female specimens of D. colletei, carefully measuring fecundity and GSI to shed light on the reproductive adaptations of this species. Our findings reveal that D. colletei indeed exhibits low fecundity, with a mean of 16.76 ± 2.01, and a mean GSI of 12.83 ± 1.27, providing crucial insights into the reproductive mechanisms at play in this species. These results underscore the existence of unique reproductive strategies in D. colletei, enabling its adaptation and persistence in Borneo's diverse aquatic ecosystems, and call for further ecological research to elucidate these mechanisms. This study lends to a better understanding of viviparous fish in Borneo and contributes to the broader field of aquatic ecology, enhancing our knowledge of species adaptations to unique ecological challenges.
Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
