Adhesion and cohesion
Outcomes
In this unit you will learn about:
- The concept and applications of adhesion
- The concept and applications of cohesion
In this unit you will learn about:
Plant cells have a cell wall in addition to a cell membrane, whereas animal cells have only a cell membrane. Plants use cell walls to provide structure to the plant. Plant cells contain organelles called chloroplasts, while animal cells do not. Chloroplasts allow plants to make the food they need to live using photosynthesis.
An elaboration on how to use Newton's second law when dealing with multiple forces, forces in two dimensions, and diagonal forces.
Newton's second law of motion is F = ma, or force is equal to mass times acceleration. Learn how to use the formula to calculate acceleration.
Overview of animal and plant cells. Topics include cell walls, vacuoles, chloroplasts, peroxisomes, lysosomes, mitochondria, etc.
