Q

Phase changes

A

Solid, liquid and gas

Q

3 laws of genetics

A

Law of separation, from both parents only allele is passed down. Law of independent assortment, alleles don’t influence each other. Law of dominance, 1 dominate allele will always be shown.

25
Recessive
A gene that is only shown if their are two of them
26
Direct evidence
A first hand observation. Eye witness police video camera.
27
Circumstantial evidence
Implying a fact and cannot prove it. Can be physical and biological. Blood type, a fingerprint
28
Class evidence
Goes towards a group of things, shoe print, blood type, hair without the follicle
29
Individual evidence
Narrowed down to one individual. Hair with the follicle, fingerprints or any form of DNA
30
Chemical change
Transforms a piece of matter into a different substance them it was before
31
Physical change
Changes the physical appearance but never changes the identity of a sample of matter
32
Parts of hair
The follicle and the shaft are the main two types of hair. The follicle holds DNA and is connected to your scalpe the shaft does not hold DNA
33
Layers of hair
The cuticle, Cortes and the medulla. The cuticle protects the other inner layers in a scale like pattern. The cortex in the big middle part of the hair and holds the pigmentation. The medulla is the very center of the hair shaft and can be visible, not visible, fragmented and disconnected.
34
Macroscopic
Seen without a microscope, the color, length and curls for hair.
35
Microscopic
Only able to be seen with a microscopic. It would be the medulla, pigmentation and the outside scales.
36
Valence electrons
The outermost electrons in an atom. Goes from 2-8-18
37
Unit conversion
King henry died drinking chocolate milk. Kilo hecto deca deci centi mili
38
Stationary front
The slowest and least intense of the fronts. Cause could sand maybe light rain.
39
Warm front
Creates big clouds low in the sky that bring heavy rain.Bring in warm weather afterwards.
40
Cold front
The most severe of the three that brings massive clouds thunderstorms and the start of tornado weather. Cold weather after.
41
Fiber
The smallest measure of a textile.
42
DNA structure
Made up of bases and a back bone connected with hydrogen bonds. The back bone is made of sugar and phosphate. Then the rungs are called c and g and an and t always connected to the sugar. Together this is called the nucleotide and the whole thing is called a double helix.
43
Element
Substance made up from one type of atom, pure substance
44
Compound
Two or more chemically combined substances, pure substance.
45
Mixture
A combination of substances that can be separated. Not a pure substance
46
Types of fingerprints
Loops, whirls, and arches. Loops are most common then whorls the arches, only 5 percent of the population has arches
47
Delta
The triangle part on a whorl a loop and sometimes a sepecial kind of arch.
48
Core
The center of a finger print
49
Ridge count
The number of lines in between a delta and a core.
50
Minutiae patterns
Patterns that make fingerprints more recognizable.
51
Visible prints
Touching a surface with something colored on your fingers like blood or mud.
52
Plastic prints
Impressions left on soft materials like soap or putty.
53
Latent prints
The oil from your skin left behind in surfaces.l
54
Greenhouse effects
The greenhouse effect keeps our earth warm. Certain gasses called greenhouse gases trap heat in our atmosphere and keep us alive. With out them we would die but with to many our planet will over heat.
55
Air pressure
The weight of air molecules in the atmosphere.
56
How to change air pressure
Add or remove air like from a tire. Add or remove heat, high temp equals low pressure and low temp equals high pressure. Move higher in elevation. The higher you are the more gravity pulls down on air molecules.
57
Pressure gradient
Aire with high pressure try to become low and spreads out, the higher the difference between the two the more winds.
58
Coriolis effect
Because our earth is rotating, it deflects rotating winds so everything in the north hemisphere moves to the right and in the southern it moves to the left.
59
Circulation cell
When warm air and cold air are near each other they create a circulation cell. At the top of the cell warm air replaces cold and at the bottin cold air replaces warm
60
Friction
Within a mile above the ground friction over objects causes wind to become very swirly.
61
Antigens
The proteins on your blood that determine blood type
62
Antibodies
The immune system attacking unknown antigens. So o blood has a and b antibodies
63
Rh antigen
Determines negative or positive blood type. If negative there is no rh if positive there is
64
Blood type crossing
65
Polyotomic ion
Contain 2 or more charged atoms
66
Cation
An ion with a positive charge
67
Anion
An ion with a negative charge
68
Synthetic fiber
Made made and the melt and solidify when burned
69
Natural fiber
When burned they shrink together and crumple up while also producing the smell of singede hair.
70
Thunderstorms begin with the rising of
Warm, humid air
71
What type of weather can you expect with the arrival of a cold front?
Thunderstorms
72
The amount of water in the air compared to the capacity of the air is called

Every time relative humidity reaches 100% it will rain
False
76
What kind of weather did Northern Texas decks experience were cold front move through
Cooler weather with rain
77
If the Earth did not rotate
We would have straight winds
78
A falling barometer reading indicates clear skies ahead
False
79
You must remove energy from a gas to make it condensed
True
80
Which of the following might be consequence of carbon dioxide in your atmosphere?
Temperatures increase hurricane activity and more diseases
81
Climates are usually classified/determined
Altitude and latitude
82
The heat out in a control environment goes down, what has caused that
An increase in greenhouse gases
83
How to count a horizontal ridge count
Start from the bottom and count the number of lines to the top or vice versa
84
Which lobe of the brain responsible for both precipitation and memory
Temporal

A person with a B antibodies must have what type of blood
O blood
86
If both the alleles and the B allele are expressed what term best explains this
Codominance.
87

Deoxyribonucleic acid
88
DNA is cutting into fragments and then separated based on size in a gel during a process called
Electrophoresis
89
Which of the following is the correct formula for photosnytheisis
Water plus carbon dioxide equals sugar plus oxygen
90
Which of the following are products of burning?
Water and carbon dioxide
91
In the carbon, where do you as an animal get the carbon you used to create carbon dioxide which you inhale after the process of our respiration
The food you eat
92

93
Which of the following is a greater impact to rising levels
Melting land ice
94
Greenhouse gas, not only traps heat atmosphere, but also destroyed the the ozone

Medulla divided by the diameter of the hair
99
Parietal lobe
Language and touch
100
What is the difference between animal and human hair?
Animal hair is less precise the scales go everywhere. The pigmentation is not constant and medulla is thicker in human hair scales constant along with the pigmentation and the medulla is thinner.
101
Carbon dioxide
Burning fossil fuels organisms contributor to earths warming
102
Water vapor
Stop heat from escaping the atmosphere hold warm air
103
