These three short online lessons discuss asteroids, comets and meteors.

Outcomes:

• Describe how the concept of density relates to an object's mass and volume.
• Explain how objects of similar mass can have differing volume, and how objects of similar volume can have differing mass.
• Explain why changing an object's mass or volume does not affect its density (ie, understand density as an intensive property).
• Measure the volume of an object by observing the amount of fluid it displaces.
• Identify an unknown material by calculating its density and comparing to a table of known densities.

An introduction to the difference between distance traveled and displacement.

Using a one-dimensional number line to visualise and calculate distance and displacement.

Clarifying some points on evolution and intelligent design.

Overview of fertilisation and early human development. From conception leading to a zygote to blastocyst, embryo and fetus.

Managing time involves accurately predicting how much time it will take to do a task, and then setting aside that amount of time to complete it. Managing time is much more difficult than it may seem, which is why there are entire courses of study and research on the best approaches. But if you develop a method to undertake each component, you’ll be successful.

Mitosis is how cells divide! Learn what happens in all the phases of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Other objects in the solar system are discussed in this online textbook viz. asteroids, meteorites, comets and dwarf planets.

Using position-time graphs and number lines to find displacement and distance traveled.
