dynamic science Flashcards
what is the first stage of mitosis?
- prophase
what is the second stage of mitosis?
- metaphase
what is the third stage of mitosis?
- anaphase
what is the foruth stage of mitosis?
- telophase
What is energy
energy is the abilty to do work or cause a change
what is atomic number
number of protons
what is a chemical chnage
can not be reversed, eveidence is a change in temp/colour/odour
what is size of electrons
1/1800
what is a physical change
its reverisble
what is rate of reaction
the time it takes reaction to complete
how must a chemical reaction occour
the reacting particles MUST collide with eachother. the rate of reaction depends on the frequency of reactions
what do succesful collisions rely on?
- collisions of particles
- collision with sufficient energy
- efficient orientation of collision
how does temperature infulence reaction rate?
as temp increases, the kenitic energy in particles increases causing them to move faster making them collide faster
how does surface area infulence reaction rate?
if you increase surface area, rate of reaction increases as there is more area for particles to collide
how does a higher concentration infulence reaction rate?
at a higher concentration, there are more particles in the same amount of space causing for more collisions to occour
how does a catalyst infulence reaction rate?
a catalyst is a chemical that speeds up reactions as it provides a different route for collisions.
what is the endocrine system
maintains balance in the body through the action of hormones
how do hormones travel
through the blood stream
what is endocrine system made up of?
endocrine glands that secrete chemical messenger called hormones
do hormones work on all cells?
no, only on target cells that has designated receptors that recognize the hormones they need
how are hormones released?
controlled by external and internal and stimuli
what is hypothalamus
it detects changes in temp and is located in brain
pituitary gland -
- master gland
- secrets growth hormone
thyriod gland -
- regulates metabolism
- secrets thyroxine
adrenal gland
- flight or fight respone
- secretes adreneline and cortisol
pancreas
- regulates blood sugar levels
- secretes insulin and glucagon
(insulin takes glucose from blood stream, glucagon puts blood sugar back into blood)
ovaries
- controls female charactsics
- secretes oestrgoen and progestrone
testes
- controls male characrsics
- secretes testostrone
pineal
- controls sleeping and waking patterns
- secretes melatonin
what conditions in the body are kept constant
- body temp (37)
- amount of water in the body
- blood sugar levels
what is the stimulus respone model
- stimulus
- receptors
- control centre
- effector organs
- respsone
what is negative feedback
is a response to a changed enviroment that reverses changes
