Protection:White blood cells in the blood help defend the body against infections, while platelets aid in blood clotting to prevent excessive bleeding.
Learning about common blood disorders and diseases that can affect fluid connective tissue, such as anemia, leukemia, and hemophilia.
Understanding the significance of blood typing and blood transfusions in medical settings.
By mastering these concepts, students can gain a comprehensive understanding of fluid connective tissue and its crucial role in maintaining the body's overall health and function.
Energy - A. Energy is involved in all physical and chemical processes. It is conserved, and can be transformed from one form to another and into work. At the atomic and nuclear levels energy is not continuous but exists in discrete amounts. Energy and mass are related through Einstein's equation E=mc 2 . B. The properties of atomic nuclei are responsible for energy-related phenomena such as radioactivity, fission and fusion. C. Changes in entropy and energy that accompany chemical reactions influence reaction paths. Chemical reactions result in the release or absorption of energy. D. The theory of electromagnetism explains that electricity and magnetism are closely related. Electric charges are the source of electric fields. Moving charges generate magnetic fields. E. Waves are the propagation of a disturbance. They transport energy and momentum but do not transport matter.
Relate temperature to the average molecular kinetic energy.
