  • Sublimation is the change of state from a solid directly to a gas without passing through the liquid state.

  • Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high water concentration to low water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.

  • Suitable temperature; water; oxygen.

  • Ovule.

  • It provides antibodies / boosts the baby’s immune system / protects against infection.

  • Barrier method.

  • Carbon dioxide + water + light energy → glucose + oxygen.

  • Light energy is converted to chemical energy.

  • Gall bladder.

  • Hydrochloric acid.

  • They remove excess water from the body.

  • Septum.

  • Humerus.

  • Moist surface; large surface area; rich blood supply.

  • Aerobic respiration uses oxygen; anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen.

  • Filtration and reabsorption.

  • Vehicle exhaust / factory smoke / burning fossil fuels / wildfires / volcanic eruptions.

  • Biological control.

  • Conduction / convection / radiation.

  • Kinetic energy.

  • Water conducts electricity and may cause electric shock.
