Metric System
The metric system was devised in 1791 by the French Academy of Sciences to create a standardized system of measurement. It uses a base-10 system and standardized units like meters, liters, and grams that are related by powers of 10. Conversions between units are easy by moving the decimal point a place for each power of 10. The metric system was widely adopted and later renamed the International System of Units. It provides standardized units and prefixes to measure length, volume, mass, and temperature.
Measurement
Accuracy refers to how close measurements are to the true value, while precision refers to the consistency of repeated measurements of the same quantity. Length is measured in meters, centimeters, and millimeters using a ruler. Mass is measured in grams and kilograms using a balance scale. Volume is measured in liters and milliliters using a graduated cylinder, reading at the bottom of the meniscus curve formed by liquid attraction to the container glass.

This document discusses measurement and units in physics. It begins by explaining that all measurements relate to fundamental quantities like length, mass and time. The International System of Units (SI units) was developed to standardize measurement across countries. There are two types of physical quantities - base quantities that cannot be defined in terms of other quantities, and derived quantities that can be expressed in terms of base quantities using mathematical equations. The document then discusses various base and derived quantities like length, area, volume, time and mass, and defines their respective SI units.

Heat notes abbreviated
Fossil fuels are nonrenewable sources of energy that were formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals. They get their energy from the sun, which was originally stored by organisms that lived millions of years ago. Common examples of fossil fuels include coal, oil, and natural gas. This document also discusses temperature, thermal energy, and different temperature scales including Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin, noting that Kelvin scale defines absolute zero as the lowest possible temperature.
Energy types
Here are the steps to solve the roller coaster energy problems:
1. PE at point A = mgh = (20 kg)(10 m/s^2)(250 m) = 50,000 J
2. KE at point A = 0 J (velocity is 0 m/s at the top)
3. ME at point A = PE + KE = 50,000 J + 0 J = 50,000 J
4. KE at point B = 1/2mv^2 = 1/2(20 kg)(200 m/s)^2 = 40,000 J
5. ME at point C = ME is conserved. ME at point A was 50,000 J.
6. PE at
What is energy2010
1. Energy is the ability to do work or cause change. Work is done when a force causes an object to move, and is measured in Joules.
2. Kinetic energy depends on an object's mass and speed, and is calculated as KE=1/2mv^2. Potential energy depends on an object's mass and height, and is calculated as PE=mgh.
3. Mechanical energy is the total of an object's kinetic and potential energies, or ME=KE+PE. As an object moves, its kinetic energy increases as its potential energy decreases, keeping the total mechanical energy constant.
Intro to Energy
The document discusses energy and how it was used in the past compared to today. It prompts the reader to list what they know about energy and what they want to learn. It then asks the reader to define energy and provide 10 everyday ways they use energy. The document discusses how ancestors lived without modern conveniences like light bulbs, cars, and air conditioners. It prompts the reader to think about whether ancestors required energy in their daily activities. The reader is then asked to read a story about life 100 years ago and discuss differences in energy usage between the past and present. Finally, the document prompts the reader to draw an illustration showing the relationship between energy and work and explain their drawing.
Invertebrate review chart
The document discusses lower invertebrates and provides review questions about their characteristics and complexity. It asks questions about the simplest and most complex invertebrate phyla, types of symmetry, and parts of the crayfish. Review questions cover characteristics of flatworms and roundworms, differences in complexity between sponges and mollusks, common characteristics among listed groups, and types of symmetry. The document then shifts to discussing higher invertebrates and provides additional review questions comparing them to lower invertebrates.
Vertebrates review chart
Mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish are the five classes of vertebrates. Mammals are warm-blooded and nurse their young, while birds are also warm-blooded but lay eggs. Reptiles, amphibians, and fish are cold-blooded and many reproduce by laying eggs, though some amphibians hatch as larvae.
Frog conclusion
Frogs are amphibians that undergo metamorphosis from tadpole to adult. They have bilateral symmetry with internal organs and systems that allow for movement on land or water. A frog's form and functions, such as its ability to leap and catch insects, are well-suited to its environment and lifestyle.
Mammals notes
Birds and reptiles can be compared and contrasted using a Venn diagram. Some key differences are that birds are endothermic and have feathers for insulation, while reptiles are ectothermic and have scales. Both lay eggs but birds care for their young after hatching while most reptiles do not provide parental care.
Bird notes
Birds have adaptations for flight including feathers and hollow, lightweight bones. They lay amniotic eggs and maintain a high body temperature through endothermy, panting to cool off and eating frequently. Birds also have a four-chambered heart and double-looped circulatory system.
Reptile notes
This document discusses the characteristics and adaptations of reptiles. It notes that reptiles and amphibians both share characteristics with chordates. Reptiles have developed adaptations to live on land such as dry scales, thick skin, and amniotic eggs to prevent water loss. Their circulatory system includes a three-chambered heart and double-looped circulatory system. Reptiles are ectothermic and must rely on external heat sources to regulate their body temperature.
Reptile and bird notes
Fish and amphibians share characteristics with all chordates, such as having a notochord and dorsal nerve cord. Reptiles evolved adaptations like scales, thick skin, and amniotic eggs to prevent water loss and live on land. Reptiles have three-chambered hearts and double-looped circulatory systems, and are ectothermic, maintaining their body temperature through their surroundings. Birds further adapted for land with feathers for flight, thin hollow bones, and the ability to regulate their own high body temperatures through panting and a high metabolism.
Frog info packet
This document contains a series of slides from a frog dissection guide. It lists and numbers various external and internal structures of frogs such as the mouth parts, internal organs, and reproductive systems of male and female frogs. The slides provide labels for anatomical structures like the ventricle, auricle, liver, gallbladder, intestines, kidneys, testes, ovaries and more.
Frog dissection pictures and diagrams
Frog dissection is a common biology lab activity where students examine the internal anatomy of frogs. The purpose is for students to learn frog anatomy through direct observation of organs like the heart, lungs, stomach and intestines. This document likely contains diagrams and pictures to help guide students through the dissection process and identify internal structures.
Amphibians notes
Amphibians are vertebrates that breathe through lungs and thin, moist skin. They have a three-chambered heart and double-loop circulatory system that is more efficient than the single-loop system of fish. Amphibians go through a metamorphosis where tadpoles with tails and gills transform into adults without tails that use lungs to breathe on land. There are three main groups of amphibians: frogs and toads, salamanders, and caecilians.
Fish notes
1. Vertebrates share four key characteristics: a notochord, hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal gill pouches, and a tail.
2. Fish are the largest and simplest group of vertebrates. They are ectothermic, have fins and scales, and a lateral line.
3. Fish have a closed circulatory system with two heart chambers that pumps blood to the gills and body for gas exchange.
Crayfish conclusion
Crayfish are advanced arthropods that belong to the phylum Arthropoda. They have a segmented body adapted for movement, digestion, and survival. Their form fits their function, with organs and symmetry suited to their lifestyle in waterways.
Crayfish dissection diagrams
This document contains diagrams and descriptions of the external and internal anatomy of a crayfish. It identifies and describes key external structures like the cephalothorax, abdomen, appendages, eyes and sensory organs. Internally, it outlines the location of organs like the heart, hepatopancreas gland, stomach and nerve cord. Descriptions are provided of both male and female reproductive structures and swimming appendages.
Arthropoda & echinodermata notes
Arthropods are the most successful group of animals on Earth, making up over 75% of all animal life. They have a segmented body, jointed appendages, a hard exoskeleton that many molt to shed and grow, and undergo complete metamorphosis from egg to adult. Arthropods have bilateral symmetry, organs and systems, eat a wide variety of foods, and reproduce sexually. They are found globally in nearly all environments.
Molluska & annelida notes
The document provides information about mollusks and annelids. It notes that mollusks are one of the most diverse animal groups, have a radula and live in various habitats. Their body plans include bivalves, gastropods and cephalopods. Annelids are segmented worms that fertilize soil, have a closed circulatory system and brain, and move by creeping along using muscles.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
