Document Summary
Do other experiments, ask more questions based on results. People fear what they don"t understand, jump to conclusions by listening to ing to influences. People fear what they don"t understand, jump to conclusions by listening to without learning about the subject. Science is done to understand what we don"t know, understand the world. Cells (threshold to be living = at least one cell) Bacteria is part of our digestive system, helps us break things down, but when death occurs, they are no longer under control. Matter- anything that takes up space and has mass. Pic = 1 proton, 0 neutrons (hydrogen atom) Determines structure, energy flow through a system, etc. Two or more atoms joined together by bonds. Cohesion- sticking together a big bucket of magnets. Between the water molecules or any two things that are polar. Polar- different charges on one end or the other. Stealing makes unbalanced bonds, slight charge difference makes them stick together.
