rock or gas, only reflect lightSolar System: our sun and everything that orbits
it.Lunar Eclipse: When the Moon passes through
the Earth’s shadow (Sun Earth Moon)Solar Eclipse: When the Moon moves between
the sun and Earth and causes a small shadow to form on Earth (Sun Moon Earth)
Spring tide: When the Sun and Moon are all in line. The tides are unusually high and unusually low (Esp. strong tides)
Neap tide: occur when the Sun, Earth, and Moon form a triangle (at right angles). Less difference between high and low tide (Esp. weak tides)

6. Life is possible due to the sun. The sun emits sunlight which produces warmth (so the temperature is suitable) and light (for the process of photosynthesis)
7. South celestial pole. The stars are stationary. They appear as if they were moving because the Earth is rotating on its axis.
8. Southern Cross, Matariki, Libra, Scorpius.
Some of the Southern hemisphere constellations can be seen in the northern hemisphere.
A constellation is a group of named stars.
The seasons are caused by the tilt of the Earth’s axis
In winter we are tilted away from the Sun so the light energy is more spread out.
In summer we are tilted towards the Sun so the light energy is more direct.
Page 5 - Physics• A force is… a push, pull, or twist that can
change an object’s movement
• Gravity is… the force that one mass exerts on another
• Weight force… the force of gravity acting on an object
• Weight is… force of gravity pulling down on an object. Measured in newtons (N)
• Mass is… the amount of matter in an object
• A kilogram is… the unit of mass
• Objects traveling at constant speed: all opposing forces must be equal
• Object slowing down: drag force must be larger than thrust
1. 30 minutes = 0.5 hour
40km / 0.5hr = 80 km/hr
2. 2hr 15min = 2.25hr
80km/hr x 2.25 hr = 180km
3. V = d/t t = d/v = 120km = 1.5hr

cannot see through(b) Translucent: some light passes through
object, cannot see through(c) Transparent: all light passes through object,
can clearly see through(d) Primary colours: Red, blue, and green. These
three colours can be mixed to produce almost all colours
(e) Secondary colour: made when two primary colours are mixed (magenta, cyan, yellow)
(f) Reflect: when light bounces off an object
(g) Absorb: when light is taken in by an object
(h) Concave: lens or mirror that bulges away from you
(i) Convex: lens or mirror that bulges towards you
(j) Converge: light rays coming to meet at a focus
(k) real: an image that can be projected onto a screen
(l) virtual: when light rays don’t actually pass through the point where the image is

• Cell membrane: controls all that leaves or enters the cell
• Cell Wall: gives shape and support
• Chloroplast: site of photosynthesis (green from chlorophyll)
• Mitochondria: site of respiration (release of energy)
• Nucleus: controls everything that goes on in the cell (contains DNA)
• Vacuole: storage
Page 14 - PhotosynthesisPlants produce food by the process of photosynthesis The green colouring in plants called chlorophyll is used to trap the energy from the Sun. Plants are called producers.Animals are consumers as they cannot make their own food. Animals that eat plants are called herbivores while animals that eat meat are called carnivores. An animal that eats plant matter and meat is called an omnivore.Energy flows from one organism to another in a food chain while minerals are recycled by decomposers. The first trophic level is always a producer because energy from the Sun needs to be trapped as glucose/food.Animals and plants are made up of cells - every living thing is made of cells and also carries out all of MRS GREN.
2. Osmosis allows water carrying nutrients to enter leaves and transpiration carries nutrients in the water stream and the water escapes the leaves via stomata.
osmosis is the movement of water from area of high
concentration to area of low concentration.
transpiration is the movement of water up the stem of a plant
and out of the leaves due to the pull of water leaving the leaves through the stomata
and osmosis causing water to keep replacing lost water in
the cells

• Osmosis is the movement of water from area of high concentration to area of low concentration
• Transpiration is the movement of water up the stem of a plant and out of the leaves due to the pull of water leaving the leaves through the stomata and osmosis causing water to keep replacing lost water in the cells. Proof – put food colouring in water and put a stick of celery in the water. Celery will gradually become coloured due to the coloured water moving up the xylem and into the leaves

A healthy diet should follow a food pyramid with little of the things at the top (fats and sugary foods) and more of the things lower down the pyramid. A healthy diet contains all of the food groups in appropriate amounts and an over food intake that is not more than you use (or you store it as fat)
