| What are your lungs protected by? | Your ribcage |
| What is the diaphragm and what does it do? | It's a muscle that sits under the ribcage. It contracts and relaxes to help get the air in and out of your lungs |
| The air we breathe in goes through the -----. This splits into to parts called the -----. | trachea, bronchus (pl. bronchi) |
| The bronchi split into smaller tubes called -----, they end at smaller air sacs in the lungs called -----. This is where gas exchange takes place | bronchioles, alveoli |
| In the alveoli, how does gas exchange occur? | The oxygen inhaled pass out the alveoli into the bloodstream, and the waste product (CO2) get transferred back into the alveoli to be exhaled |

| just study that photo | |
| What are the three types of heat transfer? | 1) CONDUCTION 2) CONVECTION 3) RADIATION |
| Explain radiation | - doesn't need particles to travel - travels in invisible waves - hotter the object, the more radiation it gives off - the cooler the object, the more it absorbs - can travel through vacuum (space) - used for sun to heat earth! |
| explain conduction | - heat spreads through particles by vibrations - need particles, so it can't travel through a vacuum (space) - when particles bump into each other to spread the heat |
| explain convection | - only happens in liquids - a convection current - gets heated, rises, and slowly makes it way back to heat source again (boiling water) - can happen in gases but its harder and slower (e.g. a fire/smoke around a room) - can not happen in solids! |

| What type of camera is similar to our eye? | The pinhole camera |
| What type of lens do we have in our eye? | Convex lens |
| What does our convex lens do? | It causes the light to converge (move together) into focus |
| What does the iris do (in our eye)? | It controls how much light enters our eye |

| Name all the colours in white light (in order) | red orange yellow green blue indigo violet |
| red is bent the (most/least) as violet is bent the (most/least) when getting dispersed | red = least violet = most |
| Define dispersed | when white light gets split up into different colours through a prism (e.g. raindrop / glass block) |
| What's the proper name for a rainbow? | spectrum |
| Why do all the colours get dispersed at different angles? | they have different wavelengths and frequencies which portrays how fast each wave is going, so violet might hit the prism, as it travels faster, so therefore it gets dispersed before the others |
| How does a red filter work? | It only lets red pass through it, therefore absorbing all other colours |
| Why are blue jeans blue? | It absorbs all colours but blue, which gets reflected. So we see that reflected colour! |
| Does sound pass through a solid, liquid or gas the quickest? Why? | solid because the more particles, the faster a sound wave travels |
| What's frequency and what is amplitude? | frequency = pitch amplitude = loudness |
| As sound waves, how is the frequency shown and how is the amplitude shown? | amplitude = height of sound wave frequency = length of sound wave |
