You often know about science. It is certain that science will go hear about science in science fiction movies or on changing our lives at an ever-increasing speed. on television. Many devices, such as the mobile Context Those who do not understand it will be left behind. phone, television and compact disc player, are This is why it is important to study science at school. based on scientific discoveries. Medical advances are largely carried out by scientific research. The effects Integrated circuits enabled the development of Fig 1.1.3 electronic devices. What is science? One part of the answer is that science is a store of knowledge. Science is also a way of finding answers to questions. Fig 1.1.1 Science affects many areas of our lives. The MRI machine enables doctors to look inside our bodies. Science as a store of knowledge Hundreds of years of using a scientific approach have resulted in the accumulation of a large body Sampleof scientific pages knowledge. The total extent of this knowledge is now more than any one person can ever hope to learn. For example, we know how the heart works, what makes stars shine, why children look like their parents, why some chemicals explode and how a virus can make you ill. But there are many things we do not know enough about, such as how the human brain works, or all the causes of cancer, or whether life exists on other planets. The thrill of science is that we can discover new information. The branches of science The study of science is divided into smaller sections, This X-ray shows a heart pacemaker used to Fig 1.1.2 called the branches of science. Usually a scientist regulate a person’s heartbeat. becomes a specialist in one of these branches. 3 What is science? >>> There are four main branches of science.

People who study chemistry are called chemists. 4 Physics is the study of the behaviour of matter and energy. When you study physics you will learn about sound, electricity, light and heat. People who Some questions may never be able to be answered by study physics are physicists. science. So science does not have all the answers to every question we may ask. There are many ways of finding the answers to our questions. Science investigations come in a variety of different forms but the key approach or method that science uses to discover answers is the ‘scientific method’. You will learn about many of the variations on this method over the next few years. Scientific method The scientific method is a series of steps used to Samplediscover pages new information. While there can be some variations in this method, most scientists would agree the process generally consists of the following steps. 1 Making observations Fig 1.1.4 Microscopes are most widely used in the branches of biology, but can be used in We make observations using our senses of sight, other fields. hearing, touch, smell and taste. More accurate observations need measuring instruments such as Science as a way of answering thermometers and clocks. 2 Posing a question questions Scientists are curious people. They want to know Science is also a method by which we can find the why. So the next step is to ask why something answers to questions about the world around us. happened. A method is a series of steps or rules to follow to 3 Making a hypothesis discover an answer to a question.

Signature …………………….………………………………………………………………… Global warming: Carbon-nutrient interactions and warming effects on soil carbon dynamics ABSTRACT In order to predict how terrestrial ecosystems will respond to global change, there is growing recognition that we need to better understand linkages between plant and soil processes. Previously the factors and processes with potential to influence the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle have been investigated in isolation from each other. This study investigated the interactions of nutrient availability and warming in controlling the soil carbon dynamics, with regards to the fate of already sequestered carbon in soil, under conditions of increasing atmospheric temperatures. The project objectives were addressed by three independent experiments designed to explain specific components of the carbon-nutrient cycle interactions, and the findings brought together to describe the implications for future soil carbon storage. The main measurements collected throughout this project included soil carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes, partitioned into autotrophic and heterotrophic components, net ecosystem exchange and respiration fluxes, and background soil moisture and temperature data, backed by gas, soil and biomass analyses.

In this scenario-based learning (SBL) module, students will take part in a simulated epidemic and model the outbreak of an unknown pathogen. Through a six-part series of guided investigations, students will identify the “pathogen” responsible for the epidemic using simple microbiological assays and determine the best treatment to eradicate the pathogen. At ABLE, two of these activities were presented, as well as the development of this module.

  • Chemistry Practical Manual GCSE
    GCSE CCEA GCSE TEACHER GUIDANCE Chemistry Practical Manual Unit 3: Practical Skills C1: Determine the mass of water present in hydrated crystals For first teaching from September 2017 Determine the mass of water present in hydrated crystals A solid which is hydrated contains ‘water of crystallisation’. This is water which is ‘chemically combined’ in the crystal structure. If we heat a hydrated solid gently, the water will be released and the solid will lose mass. In this experiment you will heat hydrated iron(II) sulfate crystals. By carefully heating the crystals and recording mass measurements, we can calculate the mass of water in the supplied crystals. To carry out this practical, each group will need:- • Hydrated iron(II) sulfate, FeSO4·xH2O (1.30 g – 1.50 g) • Spatula • Weighing bottle • Bunsen, tripod and pipe clay triangle • Heat-proof mat • Crucible and lid • Tongs • Electronic balance Safety considerations • Gentle heating should be carried out to reduce risk of FeSO4 decomposing, use a well-ventilated lab • Iron(II) sulfate is harmful • Wear safety goggles • Take care when heating, all apparatus will become very hot Apparatus pipeclay triangle crucible hydrated iron(II) sulfate tripod GENTLE HEAT heatproof mat 1 Method 1. Weigh a crucible, record this mass value in your results table 2. Add between 1.30 g and 1.50 g of hydrated iron(II) sulfate crystals, FeSO4·xH2O. Reweigh the crucible, and record the new mass in the results table 3. Place the crucible containing the hydrated iron(II) sulfate crystals on the pipe clay triangle and gently heat for two minutes.

Manual It will therefore be an essential practical handbook for all engaged on the testing of soils in a laboratory for building and civil engineering purposes. Based on the author’s experience over many years managing large soil testing of laboratories, particular emphasis has been placed on ensuring that procedures are fully understood. Each test procedure has therefore been broken down into simple stages with each step being clearly described. The use of flow diagrams and the Manual setting out of test data and calculations will be of great benefit, especially for the newcomer to soil testing. Soil The book is complemented with many numerical examples which illustrate the methods of calculation and graphical presentations of typical results. The reporting of test data is also explained. Vital information on good techniques, laboratory safety, the calibration of measuring instruments, essential checks on equipment, of and laboratory accreditation are all included. Laboratory A basic knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry is assumed but some of the fundamental principles that are essential in soil testing are explained where appropriate. Professionals, academics and students in geotechnical engineering, consulting engineers, geotechnical laboratory supervisors and technicians will all find this book of great value.
